Laurie Jeffery



UK photographer Laurie Jeffery wrote in to tell us about his new project "One a Day" in which he will be posting a new photo each day. Nothing new about that perhaps, but he takes it a bit further by providing shoot information, links to the models, and amazingly, he's also posting the full resolution files.

While you're checking this out, be sure and visit the other parts of his site for more photography and entertaining blog posts.

One a day, 365.

Rudolf Kartelin



There's a lot of subtle details in pose and interaction going on in Rudolf Kartelin's work that elevates it to more interesting level than most straight figure study work. Check this one out for sure.

Get Well Jean Jacques



I hope you will all pardon me while I take a moment for a small personal note.

My friend and photographic mentor Jean Jacques Andre is currently undergoing a rather serious health issue. JJ, I know you'll probably have dragged yourself to the computer to check out the weekly update despite all that's going on right now. I just want you to know that I'm thinking of you, and wishing you all the best for a speedy and complete recovery. Hang in there, you still have much to teach me!

Xie Mo



Due to both cultural and language differences, it's rare that I feature a Chinese photographer here. Therefore, I'm always pleased to find one, even at as unlikely a source as the China Daily newspaper. Click the page numbers at the bottom of the article for the rest of the photos.

Ivory Flame



Photo by Keith Cooper

In the world of nude photography, there's a small handful of serious professional models who I see reappearing in dozens of portfolios of photographers from all over the world. One of that elite group of muses is UK based model Holly, AKA Ivory Flame. Thanks to a comment she made on one of the photos featuring her, I know now she's also an Art Nudes reader, so it's high time to feature her excellent website.

Ivory Flame

Her blog Pool of Dreams is also worth a visit.

Pretty Girl Shooter



This is just a little plug, apropos of nothing in particular, for Jimmy D's Pretty Girl Shooter. Jimmy is a professional glamour photographer in California, and he has got more photographic knowledge in his pinky finger than just about any other blogger out there. On his blog he routinely shares his opinions on gear, lighting techniques, and making a living as a working photographer in the jungles of Los Angeles. He's a great, entertaining writer too. So if you want some wisdom from a font of knowledge, check out this site.
