the NU project :: An Exhibit of Work by Matt Blum




Art Nudes reader Matt Blum wrote in to tell us about his NU Project which he describes as follows:

"...(I) have focused the project to include only un-models and people that I meet once [without ever having seen them], photograph nude, and never see again."

FetishBliss.Net-Photography by Joi Carey/Agony Bliss




Don't let the name of the site fool you. Art Nudes reader Joi Carey's site may contain some of the obligatory PVC clothing and fake blood, but for the most part she avoids the more grotesque excesses of fetish photography and produces interesting portraits of alternative models.

Ben Heys




Beauty photographer Ben Hays must have some very interesting conversations with his models when planning his shoots. I can just picture their expressions... "You want to put WHAT on me?!"

Jeff Bark




The wonderfully hyper-real photography of Jeff Bark references painterly themes and hints at unrevealed allegories. Fantastic!

A couple days back in the post on Iris Dassault's modeling blog, I used one of Jim Young's photos with a link to his commercial photography site. Although his commercial interiors shots are truly excellent, they don't exactly match the mandate of this blog. Therefore, I was really pleased when Jim wrote to share the following link to a page with his figure work.

onexposure.net - where photographers meet




Ralf, webmaster of Onexposure.net wrote in to introduce me to his site. It's a Sweden based photography forum where you can join and share your work with other photographers and the world. The difference here from other similar sites is that photos undergo a screening process in order to be posted, so the image quality level is quite good. Check it out!

Iris Dassault, Figure Model



Photo by: Jim Young

I recently received a very nice letter from model Iris Dassault, introducing herself and sharing a link to her figure modeling blog and website. She's got some exceptional work in her portfolio, and it's great to hear from a model for a change. Don't get me wrong, I'm always happy to hear from photographers, but if it weren't for our model's we'd all be shooting flowers and sunsets. So, show Iris some love and visit her sites!

Also, if you are a model, or have worked with one that has a good online portfolio, and you'd like to recommend yourself/her/him, to be featured here, drop me a line!
