Nathalie Daoust

Canadian photographer Nathalie Daoust's in-depth, long term studies of places most never see, are fascinating.  An example:

"Spending several months in the Alpha In, one of the biggest S&M “love hotels” in Japan. Daoust photographed 39 women in their private rooms, surrounded by the specialist equipment and dressed in the regalia that define their trade." - From Tokyo Hotel Story

Photographically, she further pushes boundaries by using experimental darkroom techniques and 3-D imagery.

Jean Jacques Andre

JJ Andre has just added an interesting new series of galleries to his website entitled "The Models", in which he spotlights each of the women he's worked with over the past 50 years of figure photography. Although he is best known for his fantastical photo-manipulations, the images in these galleries are generally the pure "source" images that he later worked into his montages. Great stuff for Andre "completists" like myself.

Matt Blum

American photographer Matt Blum took his "Nu Project" on the road this year to São Paulo, Brazil. Using the basic rules of "no models, no makeup and no glamour" he photographed Brazilian women in their home environment. The results are intimate and compelling, and the photography is first rate.
