My
interest in photographing women began in late
nineties, after seeing the books "Twenty Five Years
of an Artist" and "The Age of Innocence" by David
Hamilton. I fell in love in Hamilton's work, and
since then the images of this world famous art
photographer has influenced my own photographic
style and way of seeing the world more than anyone
else.
When I published my first website presenting female beauty few years ago, I was totally blown away by the success it received. Site statistics showed tens of thousands of visits just over the first months. And during these years I have received tons of emails and positive feedback from all over world. It has been wonderful to see that my images have inspired and touched so many people, women and men, young and old.

In my
work, I try to capture a unique expression of
female beauty and sensuality. Light, composition
and color all play an important role in creating
this imagery, but an equally important aspect is
the expression that a model projects into the
composition. It is this unique expression, a bit of
the essence of the model, that I attempt to
capture. In order to capture this essense, a high
degree of rapport is needed with the models I work
with. The model must be in tune with the kind of
images I want to create as facial features play an
important part in most of my work. I try to achieve
this rapport by building a high degree of trust,
open communication with the model, and a clear
understanding that this is a cooperative creative
process. While I create a set and set the pose, it
is the model's creativity and expressiveness that
in the end breathes life into my work. I approach
each photo session with a quiet mind and open eyes,
awake to the infinite creative possibilities that
each moment presents.
Many
have asked where do I find such a beautiful and
sensuous models. Well, these angels exists
everywhere. They are women I have met on
university, city streets, shops, libraries, etc. I
work solely with amateur models and most of them
have even never before posed for the camera.
