behind the scenes

i usually choose to work with self-confident, sensual models

with fit, muscled bodies and a positive attitude. Bojana

Nedic is an excellent example; her pierced tongue and lithe

body inspired me to daydream and to experiment with

some weird positions that required a model who was very

flexible, both physically and mentally. i wanted her body

to be as tight as a string, in a strong, sexy pose that would

push fantasy to the limit in the minds of the viewers. i didn’t

want her to be on the floor—i needed something more

dynamic, so we set up a cube for her to pose on.

10:22 After some relaxed chat with Bojana,

Jovana starts applying natural makeup.

10:59 A black backdrop and extra light stands

are ready in case i decide to use them.

11:07 Next to the heater, Bojana waits for oil to

be applied to her skin.

11:25 I check that my assistant has set up the

lighting as i requested.
