Tim Haylock is a London based photographer, shooting fashion, art nude, alternative and glamour (as well as the occasional landscape and still life).

With a clear preference for the color indoors or studio shootings, Tim shows us how much he cares about the light and the composition, and therefore about all the details which make his difference, this pure and so creative simplicity so hard to capture. It was my first impression, and after a long time to admire his work, I know that it was the good one.

Thanks you Tim for your art and your trust ! And welcome !

"I was given my first camera at the age of six, and used it so much that for my eighth birthday I was bought a fully manual 35mm Yashica rangefinder.

When I reached eleven I discovered the darkroom, and I subsequently spent most of my teenage years under a dull red glow, spending hours learning printing techniques.

"Anita 7"
Art Model Anita DeBauch

After leaving university and losing access to a darkroom, I took a break from photography for a number of years, only starting again with the emergence of digital technology.

I enthusiastically applied my previous darkroom experience to Photoshop, and after a few years of experimenting on friends and family, they finally persuaded me to take the plunge and start shooting models seriously in the summer of 2008.

My main interests are currently in fashion, nude and beauty images, and I'm particularly keen on blending these styles, hopefully producing something unusual and engaging in the process.







"Kaylie 3"
Art Model Kaylie

I like to collaborate with models wherever possible, discussing potential ideas and images in advance of a session so that we can both contribute something to the finished result.

I enjoy working with models at all levels of experience; shooting with an accomplished art nude model can be incredibly productive, and they often have ideas and insights which can be incredibly useful.

On the other hand, new models will often have a fresh, enthusiastic viewpoint and less structured approach, which can lead to some rewarding images."

Warren Brown, a new member

I enjoy working with the many contrasts that this world has : light and dark, rough and smooth, old and new, moving and still. " Warren Brown

"Turning Away..."

You'll find Warren Brown at his official site, deviantART.

"Entrapped"
Art Model Fi

Warren Brown is Australian, what means a lover of great landscapes, working majestically with the light and the shadows, these contrasts he enjoys so much.

As usual, progressing step by step in his portfolios, taking on the way a new lesson in harmony and grace, I've discovered a creative photographer, working with inspired models he never forgets to thank.

In his work on nude art, Warren Brown combines nature, geometry, light and technology perfectly.

I'm based in Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, but I often travel to Newcastle, the Central Coast, or Bathurst in the state's Central West, as well as travelling across most of Sydney at need.

I'm currently doing a fair amount of art-nude work, but also dabble in portraiture and other areas. I work in both digital and conventional film.

"Convergence""Hard edges and the stillness of cold concrete balanced against the softer lines and living textures of the human form."

I enjoy working with the many contrasts that this world has : light and dark, rough and smooth, old and new, moving and still. I try and express that through my work.

I prefer to work in BW, but experiment with colour sometimes.

I'm always on the lookout for unique places with textures that I can use in my work, and other artists who like to think outside the square occasionally.

Being challenged - by a location or a person - is a great thing, and benefits us all as we follow our artistic visions.

"Taken in some very hard, cloud free sunlight."

From Michelle 7 (where he was exhibited 4 times) :

" Living on the northwestern outskirts of Sydney, Australia, Warren Brown has had a camera in his hands since his early teen years. He studied Photography at a technical college and developed a love for 35mm film, something he still works with quite frequently. He also shoots digitally but recently moved to a medium format film camera for most of his landscape work."

"Kickin' Back"
Art Model Sutha









Regardless of our medium of expression – be it chalks, pastels, acrylics, filmbase, charcoal, the 1’s and 0’s of digital, clay, or any of the many other mediums through which artists express themselves, it is the model who helps our creative vision take form... often asked to pose in odd positions for long periods, indoors and out, in the hot sun, cold wind, in various forms of attire (or none at all) without our models and muses, artists are left somewhat berefit of their vision.

So a short nod of thanks to the many models for helping us to realise our visions and give them life.

"Rising From The Threshold"
Art Model Believe Hope

"This image was shot just after dusk in a strong wind on a cool evening,
which explains the slight movement of the hair of the model."

There are some days when you go into a shoot, and no matter how you prepare, nothing works. There are other days that the shoot just flows, and everything just hums. Everything is going so well that you don't want to stop.

"Holding Me"

"For everyone who's ever felt the need to walk away from the modern world for a while
and try to be at one with nature, if only for a short time."

Welcome Brian Mackey

Brian Mackey at Model Mayhem, deviantART.

Brian Mackey (Ctphotoguild) is 50 years old and lives in New Jersey, USA.

When viewing his work for the first time, I was immediately impressed by the true reality of his pictures. Neither refined lights nor perfect poses, neither complicate compositions nor false beauty, just the truth of his model, only a simple situation, and his camera to capture this pure moment of real life, so far from the heavy sophistication that makes famous so many photographers.

Disturbing or not, his photographs talk about his feelings, good or bad, about their feelings, up or down, and never lie.

"A friend from the past IV"

"Femina Invictus series 3"
Art Model and Self-Photographer Rachel Lovitt

The arts and especially now digital photography has always been way for me to express my thoughts, my feelings, my fantasies, my demons, dreams and hidden desires.

"Lovely Lines"

The camera never lies, and the work that I produce, takes an amazing amount of trust between myself and the women and men that have been so willing to be my muse. I love them all and hold them all in the highest esteem.

There is a certain reverence in fine art, fetish, and erotica photography, and that very respect is the code by which I have always tried to live my life. So you can certainly say that for me my work has always been a very selfish endeavor, it is in a few words my reason for being.

From the oil field’s of Texas, to the beautiful woman in Ft. Lauderdale to the Harshness of the Canadian wilderness, and the dirty faced children of New Orleans, and the emptiness of New York, all of my subjects have in one way or another touched me, broken me or made me stronger. All have left a profound mark on my life.

"New muse..."
Art Model Miss Laura B

After a 20 year absence from the world of imagery, I feel that I have come home. The last two years I have found myself opening up my soul, shooting and showing my work in New York City, PA, and the internet. So with all that said, and so much more I would love to say. Please allow me to introduce to you, my section of this book.

Welcome Richard Rasner

" My specialty is the non-erotic, non sexual nude, and my goal is to make nude photography a respected art form once again." Richard Rasner

"Urban Mermaid"
Art Model Joykinz

Richard Rasner is prolific, imaginative, and he works on a wide range of fine nude art themes, from the most classical to the most modern ones. Impressed by his talent, I couldn't resist to the pleasure to welcome him here inside.

You'll find Richard Rasner at deviantART

My name is Richard Rasner. I'm a professional member of the National Press Photographer's Association. I photograph nudes for a living. It is my only job. I am an actual functioning professional artist.

I have been a published fine art nude photographer for over 10 years. My work has been displayed in museums and galleries worldwide and my most recent book "Whispers of the Mind" was a top seller on Amazon (note : out of print, available at Lulu).

"Yuuin by Gwendelin Artanis"
Art Model Joykinz

My vision is to take nude photography out of the downward spiral that the internet has taken it and bring it back to the respectable art form it once was.

I choose this occupation because I have a genuine passion for nudes, and a desire to bring them back to the forefront of respectable art.

I currently split my time pretty evenly between Las Vegas, NV & Riverside, CA (near Los Angeles). I shoot regularly at Nakayama Studios in Las Vegas, NV, which is my personal studio, and also at D.M. Gremlin Studios in Long Beach, CA, which is owned by my friend. Both studios are available for rent if you're interested in shooting at the same places that I have."

How to mix passions !

"The Resilience of Nature"
Art Model Britany

I was a music major in college, earning my scholarship on the baritone saxophone. I sold my first alto sax to Joey Hernandez of The Voodoo Glow Skulls (who I went to high school with) who still uses it to this day. (Also at my high school at the same time I was there : rapper "Skee-Lo" and the rock band "Green Jelly/Jell-O.").

I used to sing professionally with the Riverside Pops but now I mostly compose and fool around on the piano.

Still, I love working with bands and currently I am shooting for DB (Mr. Moneybag$), Lips Like Morphine, Lady Reiko and the New Wailers and a few others.

Duran Duran liked my pictures so much from their concert at The Joint that they put them up on their home page ! I'm very happy to have gotten the opportunity to meet and shoot so many great people.

About Nakayama Studios :

"Gravity in the 8th Dimension"
Art Model  Skylar Petit

Nakayama Studios was founded in 1985 by Michael Nakayama. His work with Playboy and other adult magazines, unfortunately overshadowed the great potential in his little-known art pieces. In 1997 he took on an apprentice, Richard Rasner, who would take the studio in an entirely new direction upon inheriting it after Michael's untimely death in 2002.

Under Richard Rasner, the studio left the adult world in favor of fine art nudes.

His work is shown throughout the world in prestigious galleries including the Los Angeles Center for Digital Art, Apparatus Las Vegas, Palms Long Beach, the Lodz Art Center (Lodz, Poland), and many others. In 2006 he released his first book, "Whispers of the Mind" which instantly became an Amazon bestseller and catapulted Nakayama Studios and its subsidiary, Unique Nudes, into global fame.

In early 2007 the studio moved its headquarters to Las Vegas and Richard acquired his own apprentice, Jenna Black. Jenna started as an assistant with little practical experience, and is now a rapidly rising star in the local art scene. Another photographer, Dorian "DJ" Johnson was added to the studio lineup later that year.

"Wonderland princess"
Art Model Jesyka

" The Whispers of the Mind project incorporates everything in Richard’s artistic makeup. It is epic and ambitious. It is neo-romance at its best. And while based in fantasy, it is real enough to feel as if one could reach out to touch each image or perhaps speak directly to the subjects within."
(From the foreword by Victoria Lane)



The Whispers of the Mind project was an ambitious undertaking by fine art nude photographer Richard Rasner of Nakayama Studios back in 2004. It featured over 25 different models in various costumes at locations all over Southern California.

The Whispers of the Mind book contains all 34 original images, re-mastered in stunning high resolution, with commentary from the artist on each one. Each image is in glorious full color on its own page, with the commentary preceding it on the adjacent page to allow as much room for detail as possible.

Welcome Howard Nowlan

Howard Nowlan

"Grace and Passion"

After the promotion of his books, it's time to discover Howard Nowlan, a freelance photographer based in Plymouth in Devon.

His bio, even short, will tell you everything about his deep passion for fine-nude Art, and you know how much I care for passionate artists ! Passion and Beauty, my best medicines... Pictures worthing a thousand words, let's have a look on his work.

I have been involved in photography in a meaningful way since 2002, but the roots run much deeper, as my late wife, Kay, was a professional photographer for over 30 years and teacher of the subject for almost a decade.

I’m currently studying the medium to degree level with the Open College of Arts. I have one over-riding passion, which I ‘caught’ from Kay before loosing her to cancer... to capture the beauty, and to do so in a manner which conveys moments of sheer ‘connection’ to such to others. That’s the goal. The ongoing interest in my work over the last few years suggests I may be getting somewhere...
