Photo Model Holidays

Fine Art Figure Work can fall into many categories and variations in its interpretation. For this project,  we tend to fall into both the Bill Brandt school of distorted nude female images with body parts taken in close using wide angle lenses, and the more contemporary modernist way of combining the full figure or body parts in indoor or outdoor locations with appropriate props to create equally beautiful images. The  images themselves are deliberately set up so that they are not, in any way, seen to be 'glamorous' or 'erotic', but are created simply by using light to enfold the model to produce an image of fine art. Our location in a remote village sparsely populated, (25 villagers), surrounded by forests, streams, rock falls, old communist collective farm buildings and empty houses, provides us with a perfect opportunity to utilise these wonderful indoor and outdoor locations for Fine Art work. 

 

The project guides the photographer step by step in setting up the lighting in the studio and outdoors to create the styles of images that beautifully transform the female body into the required art form so much favoured by Bill Brandt, Edward Weston and the more modern Bob Carlos Clark. 

It is no crime to 'copy' such work but always better to put one's own stamp on it, as we encourage.

It also covers the etiquette, standards and practices required when photographing naked models.
