Alina Lebedeva


The amazing images of fashion and beauty photographer Alina Lebedeva. Her work is yet another example of why I think that the Russian photographers are perhaps the best in the world these days.

Eric Kellerman


Photographer (and long time friend of this blog) Eric Kellerman wrote in to let us know that he's just completed a major website update with about 8 times as many photographs as previously included. A treasure trove!

Thorsten Jankowski


I've been an admirer of German photographer Thorsten Jankowski for years and have long had his website bookmarked in my private "pose references" folder. Therefore I was really excited when he wrote to let me know that he's recently done a major update on his website with lots of new images as well as information on workshops and learning opportunities.

If you aren't familiar with this photographer's work, don't miss this one.

Bryon Paul McCartney


Bryon Paul McCartney's "The Girl Who Could Fly" series is still one of my personal favourites.

Fashion, Fetish, Fine Art Nude and Portrait - Photographer Bryon Paul McCartney

For those of you fortunate enough to be in Italy this summer, Bryon is teaching two 6-day Fine Art Nude Photography Workshops 2010 in Tuscany.

The workshop dates are:

Light, Form and Expression, 20-26 June
Cultivating a Unique Style, 27 June - 03 July

Further details can be found on his website.

Camera Obscura


Camera Obscura is an excellent and informative blog of photographic criticism, discussion and exposition. What makes this one different is that blog owner, Italian photographer Fabiano Busdraghi invites other photographers to contribute their own essays on any photographic subject accompanying by representative work. Well worth a look for the photographic intelligentsia amongst you.

LUZ GALLERY WORKSHOPS



If any of you are lucky enough to be here on Vancouver Island in early July, my friend  Dave Aharonian is teaching a great 3 day course on Environmental Fine Art Nudes. Dave's a master at this style of photography, and he's got a couple of terrific models lined up. The folks at the LUZ Gallery always organize a quality event, so check this one out if you can.
