I create artistic nudes in nature photos to express an idea, emotion, or concept by using the human body as a medium. We want to emphasize the aesthetic qualities of the human form rather than its sexual aspect. I prefer photographing in outdoor environments, with different lighting and composition with various poses and gestures. Your models should be comfortable and confident in their nudity. It is also essential to consider the context in which the photo will be viewed and shared and any potential cultural or societal implications. All the models in Natural Beauty signed a model release. Later I asked for their verbal consent for the specific artistic nude images we considered for the book.
