41 [M4F] #LosAngeles - ISO women interested in intimate editorial portraiture for online magazine

I’m an editorial photographer in Orange County looking for women who are drawn to intimate, sensual portraiture with a cinematic, authentic feel for an online magazine called Stay Awhile. Think quiet mornings, soft light, bare skin, messy sheets, oversized sweaters, lingerie, or tasteful nude imagery (not provocative, just honest).

I’m much more interested in chemistry, trust, and creating an experience than checking poses off a Pinterest board. Most of the women in my portfolio aren’t models. They simply wanted to see themselves in a new way or create something beautiful together.

Every session is designed specifically for the individual. Some are fully clothed, some include lingerie or implied nudity, and some explore tasteful artistic nudity. Nothing is expected; we’ll shape the session together.

If you’ve ever looked at a photograph and thought, “I wish someone saw me like that,” I’d love to hear from you. Tell me a little about yourself, and let’s see if we’re a good fit.

ISO SoCal woman for professional, sexy, intimate photo session

I’m a SoCal photographer working on Stay Awhile, an editorial project focused on sensual, authentic photos of everyday women. If you’ve ever been curious about being photographed this way, this is that opportunity. The shoots are relaxed, personalized, and designed to make you look and feel incredible.

I’ve been shooting this style for several years. Many of the people I work with have never modeled before. I guide the process and make sure the experience is as exciting and fun as seeing the images after. You’ll receive 20+ edited photos to use at your discretion.

You can find examples and details on my profile and my website. If this interests you, DM me and tell me a bit about yourself. I’m happy to answer any questions.

41 [M4F] #LA - Photographer shooting candid, alt-inspired sets (like SuicideGirls)

I’m working on a series inspired by the feel of early SuicideGirls sets. Natural light, real spaces, messy bedrooms, personality over perfection, and photos that capture the energy and chemistry of the moment rather than trying to manufacture it.

Examples: https://www.reddit.com/r/suicidegirls/

Currently seeking additional subjects aged 18-35. Alternative style, tattoos, piercings, etc. are welcome but not required. No experience needed. I’ll guide you through the process and make sure you feel comfortable and confident throughout.

My shoots feels more like a casual hang. Music playing, conversation, joking, settling into the moment, and eventually creating images that feel playful, sensual, honest, and alive rather than stiff or overly posed.

Based in OC/LA. Examples of my work are on my profile and website. Happy to share more references and inspirations if interested.

Currently seeking additional subjects aged 18-35. Alternative style, tattoos, piercings, etc. are welcome but definitely not required. No experience needed. I’ll guide you through the process and make sure you feel comfortable and confident throughout.

My shoots usually start a little awkward for about five minutes, then slowly turn into hanging out. Music playing, conversation, joking around, settling into the moment, and eventually creating images that feel playful, sensual, honest, and alive rather than stiff or overly posed.
