Well, crap, so I'm not going to have any new galleries ready by the end of this month. Maybe in August or September. Hey, what can I say, I'm getting lazy in my old age.
DISCLAIMER FOR ALL GALLERIES:
If the shots work, chances are it's thanks to the model. If they don't? Blame the photographer. Better yet, blame your favorite right/left wing conservative/liberal freak/nutjob.
All models were over the age of eighteen at the time they were photographed. Amazingly, they're even older now.

Nude Photography: A Primer Ever wanted to learn how to do nude photography? Let me tell you the tricks of the trade that only the professionals know! |

Voyeur's Lament I work and slave over a hot naked woman all day, and what kind of thanks do I get? None. Boo hoo, you don't appreciate me. I'm going home to mother! |
I saw my first nude picture when I was very, very young. I found a secret hiding place under the gun rack where my brothers had hid the first issue of Playboy. The images of Marilyn Monroe were the greatest thing I'd ever seen. By the time I was a teenager, my young brain decided that the absolute coolest job in the world would be to be a photographer for Playboy or Penthouse and get to take pictures of naked people for pay.
Except for the introduction to nudes found in The Great Themes volume of the Time-Life Library of Photography, for probably over 30 years my primary visual references for nudes were men's magazines, strippers and porn. Even more important, though, as I review my work these days? National Lampoon's Foto Funnies from the 70's probably had as much impact as anything else.
