New Model IrinaV

We recently had the privilege of working with a very talented new model. She has many years of ballet training and worked professionally as a ballerina in a European ballet company. That experience gives her a poise, posture, and grace that is truly awe inspiring to see. She brought pointe shoes and did some wonderful poses illustrating classic ballet positions. She also did some more free-form poses. Without the shoes, we did several poses in a more traditional art class style.
In addition to her ballet skills, she is also an accomplished contortionist, which inspired a variety of unusual and interesting poses that we've never been able to do before. Much more will be coming soon. For now, a few of IrinaV's poses can be found in the Pose Tool while we are working on editing more.

New Model DanM

People have been asking for additional male models, and we finally have a new one. DanM has some experience with fencing (with a sword) and we like to use each model's unique experience when possible in a shoot. As a result, there are many poses with weapons. For the people who ask us not to do poses with weapons, there are also many sets of classical, every day, and action poses in the shoot.

New Models Elenas

Elenas is a fair-skinned redhead with wonderfully strong features and a natural beauty that make her a terrific Art Model. The first of her sets being posted were requested by a sculptor working on a project in bronze. For now, elenas' poses can be found in the Pose Tool.

Art Models Ultra - Becca

Several people have requested the Ultra Disk as a download. We've been reluctant because it is a large set (4 GB) and we don't want people to run into problems with the download. However, we have had increasingly large downloads and they seem to be working out better than they used to. We've also found that breaking large files into a number of smaller ones that finish faster has helped reduce problems. As a result, the AM Ultra-Becca session is now available as a large (12-parts) download. It can be found on the Session Downloads page.

New Model Anastasia

Anastasia is originally from the Ukraine but is visiting New York. She recently traveled to New England (coincidentally with Candace, another model with whom we have worked) which gave us the opportunity to work with her. We are very glad she did! Anastasia is a very talented model who thoroughly understands art modeling. So much so, she designed almost all of her poses and improvised her expressions. Having a model with so many wonderful creative ideas was a real pleasure. It allowed us to throw away our pose plan and just go with her ideas.
In addition, she has a slightly different figure from many of our models, giving her a wonderfully natural look that adds variety to our catalog. Her face is very classical, reminiscent of Classical Greek sculpture, 30's era film stars and, not surprisingly, current Eastern European stars like Mila Jovovich (also Ukrainian). Because Anastasia had new ideas as fast as we could photograph them, she has a huge collection of poses from her one session, as seen here in the Pose Tool.

New Model MonikaS

For people interested in the appearance and form of the body in pregancy, we have another maternity model. When we shot in March, she was due in May. Because MonikaS is ordinarily so petite (5' 6" and just 108lbs), she provides a really striking example of the changes while carrying a baby. In particular, you can see the increase in the size of her stomach and chest while everything else, like arms, legs and face, remains slim. When we worked with our other maternity model, Carolyne, we intentionally chose many poses that were not typical for a pregnant model. For this shoot, however, we focused on traditional maternity poses.

More MikaM

We try to answer customer requests whenever we can, so we were happy to work with Mika, a model specifically requested by a customer. We also did several poses that the customer wanted (mika017, 018, and 019). He sent a few quick sketches as a reference. You can see those poses and all of Mika's other work in the Pose Tool.
If you know a model we should work with, have ideas for poses we should do, or other projects you'd like to see contact us and let us know.
