Female Fashion Model Photography
Smoking Blond Russian Lingerie Model Quintuplets Plus A Grumpy Chihuahua

My European Fashion Photographer Portfolio page (which is the No 1 album in the navigation bar) has been untouched for quite awhile so I decided to select a few photos and include some of my thoughts about them. Many photographers' websites are all flash albums lacking any text content and while it is understandable that some ...
Night Photography With Chinese Japanese Mixed Ethnicity Model

The streets and night lights of Waikiki Beach, Hawaii provided the urban backdrop for my second photography session with Chinese Japanese fashion model Cassandra Loh. Many thanks to BERTA - sprkl(at)hawaii.rr.com - for creating the makeup of Cassandra and for her assistance with lighting! My super high tech lighting system was made of alley lights and ...

Sarah Gerber Fijian Fashion Bikini And Swimsuit Model

The first photo is my favorite from this photoshoot, it simply captures the moment and the face of a beautiful model. The moment was a natural one, meaning no direction was given to the model, things were just unfolding. The pictures below were taken for Sarah's modeling portfolio and website. The warm rays just before sunset create ...
Next Top Bikini & Fashion Model Of Fiji: Sarah Gerber

At first look fashion model photography in Fiji does have room for me. The basic plan about coming to Fiji was to build Sarah's portfolio and to take travel photos and tropical stock images. Sarah and I already created a One Model Place portfolio from the photos of our first shoot. The photo shoot location was one ...
Beautiful Mongolian Model Photography In Budapest, Hungary

I was very happy to have the opportunity to shoot with experienced Mongolian born model named Ocsi who lives in Budapest, Hungary.

Using a different location virtually for every project has ...
Russian Fashion Model At Brepols Factory in Turnhout Belgium

Finding great abandoned places like factories, trains, boats for photoshoot locations is not difficult in Belgium even while driving around. But I did Google some urban exploration websites and decided on the popular abandoned Brepols Factory in the town of Turnhout. I have done photoshoots with the exotic Russian model, Angelina a few times in 2005 and ...
Chinese Model Black And White Rainforest Portraits

Three beautiful black and white portrait photos of my favorite Chinese model Sylvia illustrate three different ways to use natural light to achieve very different looks and moods. The above photo was taken between "setups" so it is a snapshot in a way. We just arrived to a new location, Sylvia my favorite Asian model sat down ...
Beautiful Chinese Model In Creative Rainforest Lighting

More photos from the exotic, lush and quite accessible Pali tropical rainforest just outside Honolulu, Hawaii where I always find something new or unexpected. The model once again is my muse the Chinese-American beauty Sylvia. There is no shortage when it comes to fantastic locations and opportunities in a tropical rainforest setting. Not only the textures, shapes ...
Asian Lingerie, Fashion Model In Waikiki Zanzabar Night Club

Jenny is one of my most favorite Asian models to photograph in Hawaii and because she is a Go-Go dancer at the famous Zanzabar Night Club in Waikiki she arranged for us to get access to do a photoshoot before opening.

Black And White Photos Of Asian Model Wearing Trucker Hat

These black and white photos were taken at the Zanzabar Night Club in Waikiki where Jenny my beautiful Asian model is a Go-Go dancer. I selected a few versions of Jenny wearing a red and white trucker hat and a white wifebeater with short shorts just to show how I like to improvise with angles, lighting, ...
Black And White Night Pictures: Bikini Model On Beach

I decided to experiment with a different mood than what is the norm for Hawaiian beach photoshoots. Intimate, up close and personal dramatic black and white model photography at night. That's the basic idea. One can only hope for that the full moon will be out. Otherwise the assisting red laser-like beam of the Nikon flash ...
Fierce Black And White Sunrise Portraits Of Beautiful Model

The photoshoot with Elise between Makapu'u and Sandy Beaches on the Windward side of Oahu resulted in some of my most favorite black and white photos.

Sunrise Fashion Portrait Beauty Photography At Sandy Beach, Hawaii

Elise is an actress whom I contacted via my MySpace photographer profile to setup a shoot. These photos are from our second time we took pictures which was Elise's second session ever. And that is no problem for me because I love photographing first time and amateur models! Even though I only saw "non-professional" MySpace photos of ...
Mixed Hawaiian Fashion Model Photography On Lava Rocks

I was glad to do a photoshoot with an exotic model who's mixed ethnicity (including Hawaiian) was only one the ingredients I enjoy mixing into a fun photography session. Tamara only has a handful of photoshoots under her belt which means she is natural without already learned typical cookie cutter poses and self doubt. The ...
Portrait Of Local Hawaiian Beauty In Tropical Rainforest

Once again I was back in the Hawaiian Pali rainforest which has become one of my most favorite photoshoot locations. This time it was a special occasion because of who I was photographing. The model's name was Iris a non-model actually since this was her first photoshoot. She is a lifeguard and a "just a ...
Japanese Fashion Model Pictures At Hanauma Bay, Hawaii

Jen is a beautiful Asian fashion and swimsuit model who I found through ModelMayhem. Her exotic look really compliments the raw beauty of Hawaii. Her body is athletic because she is a surfer and she has a "not so typical" Japanese face so I was looking forward to capturing unique images which would spice up both ...
Black And White Bikini And Fashion Model In Rainforest

I love black and white bikini and fashion model photos which are taken in exotic and dramatic locations. The lack of color brings out shapes and textures adding much drama and class to these photos. The Pali rainforest is one of my favorite Hawaii locations, it has provided me with a wide variety of photographic opportunities ...
Rainforest Stream Swimsuit Photoshoot with Tamara – Hawaii

A cold stream in the Hawaiian Pali rain forest is the location for this swimsuit photo. It is a really short drive from downtown Honolulu and besides mosquitoes usually there is not a soul around. I have done a few photo shoots at the same location and what I love about this place is the countless ...
Rainforest Raincoat Fashion Pictures Of Asian Bikini Model

Rain in the rainforest is not surprising but it can definitely put a bikini photoshoot on hold. The beautiful bamboo forest just before Manoa Falls provided the location. Instead of packing up and going home the model's own rain jacket was used as the wardrobe. Adopting to unexpected situations, improvising, being flexible is the surest way ...
Intimate Portrait Pictures Of Chinese Beauty In Hawaii

I felt the soft rosy effect added an innocent, sad, pure, dreamy feel to this photo. Perhaps inspired by cherry blossom (sakura) flowers can't really tell why but it felt fitting. I just sat from across Sylvia and took about 30 pictures whenever something interesting or nothing was happening. Minimal directions were given to the model, I ...
B&W Asian Bikini Lingerie Model Photos In Tropical Rainforest

Jen is a beautiful Asian exotic bikini and fashion model who is also a surfer. Shooting with a surfer / model means she is has an athletic, toned, healthy body and a relaxed, easy going personality which are excellent ingredients for a fun and successful photography session. The peaceful and intimate setting was in the Pali ...
Japanese Bikini Model Photography In Hawaiian Rainforest

Having a jungle theme photoshoot with an exotic Japanese bikini and fashion model allows for a wide variety of interpretations and story telling. I prefer to capture the model's natural beauty in her current uninterrupted mood. There is always some interference when a camera is pointed at someone but with the proper chemistry between model and ...
Tanja Dexters Miss Belgium Fashion Model At De Koninck Brewery

During one of my European photography trips I had a chance to do a photoshoot with Tanja Dexters Miss Belgium 1998 at the historic De Koninck Brewery in Antwerp, Belgium (Brouwerij De Koninck Antwerpen). Because I always travel alone as a backpacker there are no lights, reflectors, assistants, studios etc. so these photoshoots do not have ...
Young Beautiful Amateur Fashion Lingerie Model Photography

Black and white photos have such a profound visual appeal that fortunately none of the latest technological advances could replace what they offer on an emotional level. Elegant, classy, refined, dramatic, real, powerful, are some of the words that can describe black and white images. I love black and white photography so much that when I ...
