The naked and the lens: a guide to nude photography

Abstract

This book was only possible through the contributions and inspiration of a lot of people, and I’m certain that what I’m writing here will not cover everyone, or do justice to the people who are mentioned. You all have my gratitude.The 27 artists who contributed work and participated in the interviews are named throughout. They gave this book its real substance. I am standing on their shoulders. Their extreme gen-erosity and talent inspires me.My own photos could not have happened without the spirit, collaboration and inspiration provided by the wonderful people who sat in front of my lens, including Denise, Sienna, Isabel, Aubrey, Damiana, Moon Marie, Tia, and Nekosi. Sienna graces the cover of this book. Isabel brought collaboration to a new level and is still one of my favorite models to work with. My brilliant friend Damiana was second only to Denise in terms of support and positive energy as I brought this book to completion.
