The forest is my church

Sometimes simplicity can be beautiful.
More of this shoot on Flickr.


The forest is my church

And yes I am a certified treehugger, a hiker and a nature-loving, outdoorsy type of person.

Candlewax & tattoos (PAIN/PVIN Magazine teaser)

Afbeelding
How about some easy reading while you wait for the second lockdown of 2020? Would these subjects & cover stir up your interest.. And still be artful/tasty enough to leave it casually lying on the side table when suspected kinksters are visiting? Yes, we are brainstorming about a new magazine that combines bodyart, kinks, art & BDSM (online + print).  The idea for the magazine is to be non-binary in it's approach. Meaning that it would not be only focussed on straight kinksters, nor only on LGBTQIA+ kinksters. But to show both from their darkest/arty-est/most open side and hopefully be a bridge in between both groups. The question is of course whether there are interested viewers/readers,  models (mf+), photographers, tattoo + other artists, bodypiercers, copywriters and sponsors/advertisers in Belgium to realize a magazine like that. But hey, we've already got the 1st cover. Looks promising , doesn't it? More PVIN on Flickr

Postapocalyptic

Afbeelding
Once all animals have been killed for sports, for food, by greed, by pollution, or through the destruction of their habitat.. what.. or who.. will we then hunt and keep as pets? Since this image is " restricted " it cannot be embedded.. watch it here on Flickr . This is a small preview.

Exotic & cosplay looks in boudoir

Afbeelding
You have probably noticed plenty of faceless/fully anonymous xxx, kinky, fetish & even BDSM-tinted images on this page. Gritty, hard & arty (and often black & white). This is indeed something that I enjoy making for small expos. However sensual, dreamy boudoir mixed with exotic looks and cosplay influences are also possible paths for shoots ( and probably even more liked by most models ). Let me showcase some samples from such shoots: . . . . . . Interested in such a shoot? Then there are a few things you should know: ▷ For my portfolio & expos I normally only use images without a visible face unless the model desires to be recognizable ( because they're either a model, or they like a bit of fame, or they enjoy exhibitionism ), ▷ A contract stipulating what can/cannot be done with the images will be drawn up , ▷ I don't shoot with "your camera", nor on "your card" . I use my own pro-gear that I know by heart and that I also use ...

Waiting at the Gate

Afbeelding
Once in a while somebody spontanously contacts you and says " I'd like to pose for any crazy idea you might have at the moment " and actually show up for the planned meeting. If your plans are for an outdoors shoot always make sure to plan it in a nice place where you can go for a walk if the models don't show up. It'll be a wee bit less frustrating. . Namaste

The maize runner

Afbeelding
In Belgium there were very few let's-shoot-outdoors-in-the-sun-and-warmth -days this Summer. But when there was one outside the working moments we had to go and shoot. This series was made in the maize or corn fields near my place. And I should make some rear-side pictures. I admire female behinds but haven't photographed them in a long time. * makes mental note * A larger version of this image is on Flickr .

Adultfolio - Online portfolio

Afbeelding
  You can also visit this online portfolio of mine for artful nudes, arty black & white xxx-rated images and some punchy fetish shots. Adultfolio And if you're interested in having a free portfolio for yourself as a model or artist, you can use my referrer ID to get the Pro-options for free during a month. In this portfolio you'll find some of the more recent shots of which I'm still pondering whether to post them to Flickr or not. Of some I'm actually having a good feeling.. but there's some new X-rated work to. But then again: there are also some shots from my " Left behind series ".. so one of these days I must start posting recent nudes to Flickr again!  Too bad for all those easily offended followers.

The Left Behind - series

Afbeelding
This is one of those series where I spontanously get ideas for during hikes, long walks or even shoots.. and in 99% of those cases I either don't have a model hiding in the backpack or I'm working with a non-BDSM /non-nude model so I can't propose the idea. Hence it's taking me years to get some shots together.  . . The theme of the series is pretty self-explanatory, right? Yes, it's in many senses dehumanising to see both people & objects at the same level.. Some will even complain about the objectification process that speaks from some photos or be shocked about the titles giving more focus to objects than humans. Yes, I'm aware that several people in these photos are out of focus.. and just know that I choose what will be in focus and what not. . This series has it's own album on Flickr . . Do I want to make more of these? Damn right . With you? Maybe . Use the contact form on your left-hand sidebar and we'll see.

Event - Fantasy fair photography etiquette

Afbeelding
This was the reaction of the barbarian faun to the notification that Castlefest 2021 has been cancelled. We can only hope the best for Elftopia, now that Trolls-et-Legendes has postponed it's fair to 2022.  Actually.. such events have been so long that I don't even remember which kind words I should use to convince the beautifully costumed creatures from the fantasy fairs into posing for my camera. Should I Zoom or Facetime them? " Hi you on the other side of the path.. would you mind if I took a picture of your gorgeous creation? " My fear is that I'm not the only one with these questions rushing through the head and while I will try to talk to the costumed humans, some other photographers might resort to sniping from afar with 200mm to 600mm telelenses and refuel that silly <Cosplayer/Photog> feud because some not-cleary-thinking photogs caught some cosplayers unaware .. or even worse: snapped them while taking a huge bite of a sandwich. Not the most eleg...

Sleeping in decay

Afbeelding
When the temperatures allow it, urbex locations are great fun with models. Sadly enough so many urbex locations in my region are disappearing. Hence it's a constant search for new spots without security, tourists or hazardous materials so a fearless model can safely pose amongst the decay. Have some old stonework in black and white.  More on Flickr

Tape & Ink (PAIN/PVIN Magazine teaser)

Afbeelding
Having a holiday during the 2nd lockdown of 2020 was a great opportunity to play a bit around with tape on skin (combining BDSM with Body Art, as we brainstormed about for the PVIN/PAIN magazine). After the pandemic there will be hopefully some more taped images and plenty of tattoo pictures. Inked ladies who are interested in creating images (can be boudoir, costume, fine art nude, kinky & Dark Fantasy) with their pretty tattoos are welcome to contact us for collabs in 2021.
