Yesterday, I had the great pleasure of a 4 hour shoot with Holly a.k.a. Ivory Flame. A full-time professional model from the UK, she is touring Australia, doing shoots along the way... Have a look at her website http://ivoryflame.co.uk to see more of her work...

Without a doubt, one of the most striking and professional models I have worked with so far...

Here's a few of the early edits... I hope that you enjoy them

Beautiful, striking poses John, and beautifully lit /directed too. Well done.

John, I didn't think you could improve anymore. You have proven me wrong!

Lovely and sublime. Nice control of skintones too. You take great nudes John.

Thank you so much Geoff, surenj and KillaKoala...

I really enjoyed this shoot (and there are many more images to come)

John,

Holly has a beautiful, almost medieval, look about her. The white skin and the red hair combine remarkably well.

Of these images, I think that the second is the weakest. I don't think that you've taken enough care in shooting this image, with the result that Holly almost has a tree growing out of her head. The background in this image is somewhat busy, and for me, that spoils it.

Contrast that with the simple slab rock in the next image. No distracting elements ... wonderful.

Great work.

May I ask where these were shot?

Yep... she's outstanding...

Fair call... I did spot the tree at the time and asked Holly to echo the bend in the tree with her arm, which I thought had sorta worked. When you're both perched precariously upon a rock, it's a little difficult to frame shots freely

Yep... that's my favourite.

You may ask Gary, but I cannot say in public It's partially on private land and I don't want them to fence it off Let's just say it's very close to where I live. A very handy secluded location which I've used several times for shoots without causing a stir...
