Welcome and thank you for your interest in my images.
Photography is my passion;
As you can see when visiting
www.stephanbrauchli.com my work is very diverse. One of my main interests is artistic nude photography. Therefore, I am always looking for models.
* Nature knows no indecencies, man invents them - Mark Twain *
To me even explicit nudes can be tasteful and artistic. Surely, most explicit images one comes across cater to shock value and the intrinsic voyeuristic desire of the average human to look at the body parts that have been deemed taboo by our society. This is also why nudes get many more views than say a gorgeous landscape. I am not trying to compete with pornography, though that WOULD probably be more lucrative…. There is a fine line between pornography and art which also depends on the viewers opinion – aka: "I know it when I see it".
I would love to hear from you. Let me know what you think.
Cheers
Stephan
FAQs:
* What kind of models am I looking for?
Experience is not necessary. I am mainly looking for female models. More often than not, creativity takes off during a shoot and in collaboration with the model(s) . While I am selective in who I work with, please do get in touch with me if you are interested. As a basic rule, I prefer a model with no tattoos, no piercings, with good facial structure, complexion and an open mind (of course these rules can be bent). What is most important is that we have fun during the shoot – a relaxed, fun atmosphere facilitates creativity.
* What do you pay?
I pay my nude models (TFP is also an option), but I require a model release form. I spend a lot of time and money (gear, studio rental, travel etc.) and do not make my living from it, so while I do pay models, don't expect to get the same kind of payment you did for some commercial shooting. I may want to shoot with you more than once as I often get more ideas after the 1st shoot with you.
***FRIEND REQUESTS***
I ONLY accept friend requests from people I am planning to work with or have worked with, know personally, or whose work inspires me in some way. If you want to network, join my FB fan page – Thanks.
