So very beautiful. A love of form. Isn't skin a beautiful covering? Impervious to certain things that would erode rock, yet vulnerable to so much. With all of the adornment, my eye is drawn to that exquisite plane carved from carbon.

(Somehow, my own skin doesn't quite look like that when photographed. Wrong photographer? Hmm?)

I'd say fire that photographer and go with Katia on any day. ;)

Skin is a pretty amazing thing, isn't it? It's funny to think how much time we actually spend looking at it, attending to it, touching it...
The sensitivity is fascinating. How you feel everything through your skin: from the electric tingles of the wonderfully sensual to the fiery prickling of fear and anxiety, the golden warmth of the sun and the gentle caress of the water. So much pleasure, so much pain.

You never feel you've actually touched someone until you've touched their skin and that can be such a powerful longing.

I'm so glad you like these photographs, Lori. I've looked through her entire online portfolio and loved almost everything I've seen. It's filled my heart with gratitude for being born a woman.
This is such a breathtaking celebration of what we are.

Her technique and eye for composition, and choices of colours and textures is genius. Her models are just stunning. She's become one of my favourite artists.
