Soft and lovely photos by Marianna Rothen.  I love the way women shoot each other.  I feel that when men shoot naked women they tend to focus on making them look sexy to satisfy their mental boners, while women tend to look for an extra quality or mood from their naked subjects.  Maybe that’s...

Happy New Year, peoples.  It’s been a long time.  I’m a bad bunny, but I’m back…   Meet photographer Hal.  He makes me giggle. I think he’s quite romantic in a way.

Lydia Roberts is yet another young and extremely talented photographer that we’ve stumbled across that is only going to get better as she continues her work. It’s mind-blowing how many young photographers under 21 years old (This is generally speaking, of course. I believe Roberts is currently under 18 years old) possess such a...

徐晚晚 (COCOTTE) is a photographer hailing from Wuhan, Hubei, People’s Republic of China. Plain and simple, I love COCOTTE’s work. It’s ambient, emotive, dark, sensual, and all around dope. Now, only if I can start directly snorting her work, so I can get a direct dose right into my brain…
