Vex Voir is a top professional art model... I had the chance to work with her a while back, and we put together a nice day's work... enjoy! https://www.instagram.com/vexvoir/
A favorite model I've worked with sometimes goes by Dream... she found me on social media and was ready to dive into the deep end on our first shoot. We went to a favorite derelict urbex spot in the heart of downtown, and she fearlessly launched into posing nude, having only modeled a time or two before. She took direction well, but was also excellent at moving and improvising her flow. In subsequent studio sessions, she did equally well, working with light and space, and creating beautiful forms.
I also like to "work a shot" sometimes and have the model hold a pose for a while as I try different camera positions, lenses, lighting, settings, and ideas, and Dream would hold her pose, and take direction for fine-tuning without breaking the overall pose.
Always a great attitude, funny and lively, but took the work seriously... a dream subject.
Sadly, she moved a few states away, so we haven't had the chance to work together much recently, but I'm hoping to rectify that this summer. Thanks Dream!

About the work...
"In my work, I try to emphasize the strength, grace and beauty of the female form, as well as exploring vulnerability and expressions of intense emotions. In many images, the contrast of figure and surroundings is emphasized by the contrast of the images themselves."
Originally from Dayton, Ohio, Gary grew up as the son of an avid photographer and learned both the skills and appreciation for photography from a young age. After years of shooting advertising work and concerts, in 2006 he turned his focus to fine art nude photography with an emphasis on the strength, grace and beauty of the female form. “I keep it simple. The individual nuances of each model are more than enough to work with. I often concentrate on contrasts — light and shadow, rough and smooth, traditional and unexpected. Black and white is really my ‘native language’ and for me it adds the right emphasis to the light and forms and textures.”
