Her bio :

" I am an experienced model & have extensive knowledge of most aspects of modelling. I modelled for 15 years in the UK and have continued for another 3 years since moving to Australia.

I have experience in catwalk, fashion, artistic nude, fetish, hair, promotional work, acting, and photographic modelling. I have worked with lots of agencies, photographers & artists for exhibitions, magazines, books, hair shows, advertising, television and websites.

I have been published in several UK fashion and hair magazines, with a number of front covers. In Australia I featured in 'Fashion Nudes', Black & White magazine, L'Oreal Hair magazine and front cover of Kink-E magazine. I was lucky enough to be part of the Canberra hair show, where I won 1st place with Anton's hair salon the stylist. Television commercials that I have appeared in are ActewAGL, Quality Hotels, Canberra Labour Club and corporate videos.














I work at a Canberra modelling agency and teach all aspects of modelling to potential models – catwalk, commercial acting, photography, grooming, deportment and etiquette. I am reliable and professional in my work at all times.


My aim is always to perform to the best of my abilities and I hope to continue shooting and creating great work.

The beauty of humanity by Avramidis Mosses







" In our lifes, there are only a few things that we really possess : our body, our passions, our dreams and our emotions."


Avramidis Mosses







"Maria"


You'll find Avramidis Mosses at : deviantART, his photoblog, flickr.




















"Nude"
Art Model Alki










From Thessaloniki, Greece, at 39 years old, Avramidis Mosses is a fine art nudes photographer I met through the favorites of... a lot of contributing artists.

In BW or in color, mainly in studio and indoors settings, I find in his beautiful compositions the grace of a rare and harmonious simplicity.

Without sophisticated make-up or superfluous accessories, Avramidis Mosses works with soft and discreet backgrounds lighting up the poses and the expressions of his art models.









"Nude beauty"
Art Model Marylu




Great lover of the feminine curves, passionate and talented, as you can see it, his work is really a creative tribute to the natural look, where his interpretation of space and of light makes this special signature I'm daily searching for like Lancelot the Holy Grail.

It's for these reasons I wanted to feature him. He told me "yes !", I tell him thanks !







"The cube"
Art Model Polina













" My passion is to capture and share the sensual beauty of the female form. The female nude is for me the most compelling and provocative natural form, the Nature's finest gift.

I'm so moved by his aesthetic that I want to translate what I feel into still images.


In my photographs I try to capture the beauty of humanity, just as the ancient Greek sculptors attempted to bring life into stone.










"Nude 33"
Art Model Rachel










"Nude 17"
Art Model Vannessa












"Nude 41"
Art Model Thepi





The body language is never indifferent. It touches us with very deep feelings, the feelings of life, love and passion.


I have very special feelings for my models. They are for me a recipe made of trust, understanding and humour.

Friendship allows my models and I to relax in such a way that my camera becomes simply a tool for capturing the unique moments we share.

Welcome Olivier De Rycke



"All I like is to consider each shooting as an artistic performance between the model and me. I always try to get the best of my models' spirit and beauty." Olivier De Rycke






"Wild Life"
Art Model Liana










"So long"
Art Model Deni





Olivier De Rycke, from Paris, France, has seized the chance to become a professional photographer when he has been discovered in 2005 by a web site for nudes.

Since then, Olivier is working his favorite topic which is a perpetual flirt between photography of charm, fashion and artistic nudes, a soft mixture which gives all its specificity to his photographs.








2008 sees the released of its first book "My body, My Soul" from the french editing house Ragage.

Apart from that he still gets involved in subjects as landscapes, ambiance and lomography !

Welcome Zanzib


You'll find his beautiful works on Nonstop Photos, photodom, photosight, ALTphotos, and numerous of his paintings on ArtLib or the extraordinary Hieroglyph.








Zanzib is the first photographer to send me a message when I published him on my writing blog "Le chemin des étoiles". In fact for me, it's just like if Mylene Farmer (for french) or George Michael (for everybody) took the time to tell me : "thanks to love"...

To be the first gives him a favourite place in my heart. Zanzib never forget that there is a a world beyond his camera, and amateurs that watch and comment and appreciate his works, giving them a true place in a true life.

William Earle joins us




William Earle at his official site, his second one, his blog, Model Mayhem, deviantART.







Art Model Lela Rae










"Intimate Portrait 1"
Art Model Zinn




An amazing talent,
A wonderful vision,
An endless and (Im sure !) a consuming inspiration,
A devoted love for BW pictures,
An outstanding grace and a true purity in each of his compositions...

This is, and so much more, William Earle, photographer from Philadelphia, Usa, and member of the Professional Photographers of America :


" William works with light, shape, form and an occasional prop capturing expression, emotion, beauty and passion with the nude figure.William’s work is largely an exploration of and into himself and the people he photographs."








"Pure"
Art Model Moon Marie



And all is said.

Working with the greatest art models as you can see it, in a shared and deep respect I love so much, William Earle is also a man to read. His philosophy of life has something that warms your heart. You just have to click here, you'll understand what I mean.

Now, as we know it "a picture worths a thousands words", so it's time to admire his work. It's time for Beauty.

Thanks a lot William for your enthusiasm.









"Trinette"
Art Model Trinette

" Trinette is a master with poses like this producing what I consider to be some wonderful work.
She's a lot of fun to work with !"













"Hands of Light"
Art Model Candace Nirvana

" This was shot on a very hot day at a State Park somewhere in Maryland, USA. I find hands to be extremely expressive and at times they speak loudly about the individual."














His bio, his artist's statement,
... and all his passion :


" Located in suburban Philadelphia, PA, my primary focus is fine art portraiture along with the variations, permutations, wonderful and magical moments that just seem to come out of nowhere.



We as human beings are full of life's stories, emotions and feelings. My hope is to share and capture these on some level.









"Painted with Light"
Art Model Melissa Trout




My passion is photographing people and my goal is to share this passion with everyone who I am fortunate enough to photograph.

My primary interest is in creating images that have something to say and communicate to the viewer. I want the viewer to feel something on some level when they look at the images.



Much of my work is in black and white, which I believe communicates feeling and emotion in a timeless manor without distraction that color sometimes introduces.











"Soft Emotion"
Art Model Jessamyn

" Jessamyn is an outstanding model from Australia and I was very fortunate to have an opportunity to work with her. This is a favorite lighting set up of mine and I think she really worked it well."











My approach is a collaborative one working with the models before and during a shoot. Ideas and input from models is always welcome.


I have been fascinated with photography since I was a very young child. It has drawn me into its magic, the magic of feeling and emotion that a photograph is capable of generating.


I have been practicing and studying photography for about thirty years photographing just about anything you can imagine. My journey has brought me to the realization that people are what I am truly passionate about.

Prints of most of my work are available by contacting me directly at this email address LPS@lightphilestudios.com










"A Portrait"
Art Model Elizabeth










William Earle and Stephanie Anne Landers : a winning team !




" Here are some images that I consider to be some of my best work. The art model is Stephanie Anne Landers.

I have been extremely fortunate to meet and work with Stephanie Anne on a number of different occasions.

We work extremely well together and have produced what I consider to be some very strong images."

























































"Film Noir 1"
Art Model Rael










" I received a comment on this image applauding me for breaking a rule with the lighting and complementing the image.

As far as rules go I don’t really know what they are or pay any attention to them.




I think if you follow guidelines or rules or whatever you want to call them, you’re placing restrictions and limitations on your vision and the work produced.














"Goddess of Light"
Art Model Candace Nirvana












My work involves much experimentation. Some experiments are quickly dismissed if it’s obviously not effective and some take some time, work and practice to attain acceptable satisfactory results. I experiment a lot and in many cases follow my instincts. If I like the results of a particular lighting set up I’ll use it and explore it, if not I’ll move on.


I do my work for me to please myself first and if someone else enjoys it or appreciates it that’s also a wonderful reward.

If you see something interesting, grab it, play with it and explore it. Great things can come from being aware and open.
















"Entwined"
A book by William Earle

Available : here.


" The book is titled "Entwined" and is a selection of ten images from a figure study involving twine. All of the images in the book can be seen on my site in the Entwined gallery.

The images represent many different emotions, feelings and thoughts that we all experience from time to time as we travel through our lives.

The model featured in the book is Katy T. She is a wonderfully talented model and her input to this project deserves mention."
