SKIN: The Complete Guide to Glamour and Nude Photography
Photo Shoots: Be A Professional (Or At Least Act Like One)
By this point in the book, you’ve learned quite a bit about the equipment, technique, and preparation that goes into making a shoot successful. Most likely, you’ll soon have a model knocking on your door who is ready and willing to be your personal muse.
This particular model may be experienced and calm or inexperienced and nervous. However, whatever mood she’s in when she arrives, it’s your job to put her in a state of mind where she can feel comfortable, safe, and confident.
The most important thing you can do when a model arrives for a shoot is to set a professional tone from the very beginning. That doesn’t mean you have to be unnecessarily serious or detached; it simply means that you should provide her with a professional environment.

About the photographer “Michael Charles”
I´m a photographer based in Los Angeles and I’ve been shooting professionally for over 20 years. Though I began my career in fashion photography, I quickly realized that I had almost zero interest in women’s clothing. However, I still loved photography and I still loved photographing models.
After a bit of thought, I found a photographic niche that allowed me to keep the models while eliminating the clothing part of things almost entirely. That niche turned out to be glamour, nude, and erotic photography.
And I’m happy to say that the change worked out well.
I’ve worked exclusively in the fields of glamour and nude photography for well over a decade.
Over that time, my images have been published in hundreds of national and international publications.
In addition to my passion for photography, I also enjoy sharing with fellow photographers the knowledge I’ve accumulated over my long career. I’m able to do this through the blog you’re reading now, as well as through my recently completed eBook, SKIN: The Complete Guide to Glamour and Nude Photography.

Eva´s Garden – The daily rotatating cover of the new set of the day
Here is the fresh cover of the “gallery of the day” from EVA´S GARDEN:
Eva’s Garden is serious about their fantastic photography! Each photo set comes in three resolutions, all the way up to 5600px! Not sure how practical such high res photos are on the internet, but most, if not all, models have them. Also, at these ridiculous high resolutions, the images are still crisp and clear looking; sometimes at other sites, you see these massive images that look grainy and crappy. Not here.
You have quite the selection of video options as well. HD video comes in both h.264 and DivX formats, you also get a medium sized WMV and h264 version as well. iPod, psp and even a 3GP mobile version round out the video options for your handhelds, which are a nice touch for sure. Also you can watch the video streaming from your browser in a small flash player. Regardless of format, each movie looks great! Though, not all models have movies.
The videos are all unique mini vignette-style films with sensual lighting and locations. All have a musical background with the girls’ natural audio replaced. Whether the girl is solo or paired up with a unique prop situation, the films unfold with the lovely model caressing her soft skin, slowly stripping and eminating sexuality throughout. Some of the videos feature light pink part touching, but no full on masturabtion, that I saw. The elegance and sensuality of these beauties is Eva’s Garden is after, and they do it well… [read the full review at allhdreview.com]

The Big “Everything” Books
Dian Hanson was born in Seattle in 1951. For 25 years she produced various men’s magazines, including Puritan, Juggs and Leg Show, before becoming TASCHEN’s sexy book editor in 2001.
Her many books for TASCHEN include:
- The Big Penis Book
- The Big Book of Legs
- The Big Butt Book
- and The Big Book of Breasts
|
The Big Book of Legs: The female leg is a sexual oddity. Its non-genital, nearly identical in structure to the corresponding male body part, and there is no obvious reason why it should be eroticized. Yet, through much of history, across many cultures, the female leg was hidden from sight and treated as such a taboo topic that it became an object of intense sexual obsession. In the Victorian era, the word leg was so forbidden that it couldnt be uttered in polite society. Even now, 80 years after women legs came out of hiding, their allure remains strong. In this third book of Dian Hanson wildly successful body parts series, she explores how freeing the female leg became central to women liberation, beginning with the French Revolution and ending with the sexual revolution. Learn who wore the first high heels, how nylons became a weapon of war, why Betty Grable were the million dollar legs, while enjoying great vintage photos by Irving Klaw Batters, and other great masters of leg art. Buy The Big Book of Legs @ Amazon |

The Big Penis Book: When it comes to pleasure, size doesn’t matter; as we all know it s quality, not quantity, that counts. But let’s admit it: a big penis is undeniably compelling. Big shoulders, big lapels, and big hair may come and go, but the big penis never goes out of fashion. With those possessing more than 8 inches (20 cm) making up less than 2% of the world’s population, this rare accessory will always fascinate. In The Big Penis Book we explore the centuries-old fascination with the large phallus, a fascination common to men and women alike. This hefty book is profusely illustrated with over 400 historic photos of spectacular male endowments, including rare photos of the legendary John Holmes. The majority of the photographs are from the 1970s, when the sexual revolution first freed photographers to depict the male entirely nude. Photographers include Bob Mizer of Athletic Model Guild, David Hurles of Old Reliable, Colt, Falcon, Sierra Domino, Third World, and Champion Studios, with each of these iconic photographers interviewed or profiled, along with information about each of their models. And if this isn t enough, the book closes with a special surprise comparable to the Guinness Book of Records Norma Stitz featured in The Big Book of Breasts! Can you guess what body part Dian is dissecting next? Buy The Big Penis Book @ Amazon |
|
The Big Book of Breasts: Some call it the American obsession, but men everywhere recognize the hypnotic allure of a large and shapely breast. In The Big Book of Breasts, Dian Hanson explores the origins of mammary madness through three decades of natural big-breasted nudes. Starting with the World War II Bosom-Mania that spawned Russ Meyer, Howard Hughes’s The Outlaw and Frederick’s of Hollywood, Dian guides you over, around, and in between the dangerous curves of infamous models including Michelle Angelo, Candy Barr, Virginia Bell, Joan Brinkman, Lorraine Burnett, Lisa De Leeuw, Uschi Digard, Candye Kane, Jennie Lee, Sylvia McFarland, Margaret Middleton, Paula Page, June Palmer, Roberta Pedon, Rosina Revelle, Candy Samples, Tempest Storm, Linda West, June Wilkinson, Julie Wills, and dozens more, including Guinness World Record holder Norma Stitz, possessor of the World`s Largest Natural Breasts. The 396 pages of this book contain the most beautiful and provocative photos ever created of these iconic women, plus nine original interviews, including the first with Tempest Storm and Uschi Digard in over a decade, and the last with Candy Barr before her untimely death in 2005. In a world where silicone is now the norm, these spectacular real women stand as testament that nature knows best. Buy The Big Book of Breasts @ Amazon |

The Big Butt BookThe Kama Sutra gives detailed instructions on how to spank it. Contemporary Italians touch it for luck before placing a bet. Americans are having it cosmetically enhanced at rates approaching breast enlargement surgery. The female butt, tush, culo, or derrière has always inspired awe, fantasy, and slavish devotion. Curiously, its primary purpose is functional rather than aesthetic: butts balance our bodies while running, according to biologists. But ask any pygophiliac—as fundament fans are clinically termed—and you’ll get the same answer: female hindquarters exist to please the eye, the hands, and parts south. A pert posterior causes instant arousal, as Zora Neale Hurston observed in Their Eyes Were Watching God: “The men noticed her firm buttocks like she had grape fruits in her hip pockets.” Or, as rapper Sir Mix-a-lot proclaimed, “My anaconda don’t want none, unless you’ve got buns, hun.” Having all but disappeared from western culture in the breast-obsessed second half of the 20th century, the fully formed fanny is currently enjoying a massive resurgence, attributed by some to American actress Jennifer Lopez, by others to the rise of booty-centric hip hop culture. Yet this rage for shapely butts is nothing new. The ancient Greeks worshipped at the temple of Aphrodite Kallipygos, Goddess of the Beautiful Buttocks, while a womanly rump has always been an object of worship in most of the southern hemisphere. The Big Butt Book explores this perennial fascination with female booty—from small and taut to large and sumptuous—in the fourth installment of Dian Hanson’s critically acclaimed body parts series. Over 400 photos from 1900 to the present day are contextualized by interviews with porn icon John (Buttman) Stagliano, filmmaker Tinto Brass, artist Robert Crumb, bootylicious butt queens Buffie The Body, Coco and Brazil’s Watermelon Woman, plus Eve Howard and her life-long spanking obsession.
