Konrad Gös has made his hobby into his profession. He is specialized in making portraits, capturing faces, the people behind. He was born in 1966 in Erlangen, Germany. His studio is located in Heidelberg City. He started out with an old plate camera, but these days he is fully digital. When you see his photographs it’s clear that Konrad Gos takes his photographs in motion. He takes a piece of’ the ‘motion’ and captures it forever with his camera.

As with every other ambitious photographer, Libor gets kind of discomposed before the shooting. He has a lot of things to do and forgetting just one of them could spoil the whole event. And Libor is not that kind of person, who needs a crew of assistants around him. So everything is up to him. First he gets his diving gear ready, so that he can spend more than three hours underwater… Then the photo equipement comes in order. Libor usually works with two cameras; Canon 10D digital reflex camera “instead of polaroid”, as he says smiling, yet nearly one fifth of the exhibited images were shot digitally. The undeniable advantage of digital cameras underwater is that you can check the results immediately. The second camera is a 35mm Canon EOS 3. Both cameras have custom BS Kinetics underwater housings. And there comes the dilemma: which photographic material to use? Black&white or colour? Negative or slide? Sometimes Libor even considers medium format, but he hasn´t chosen his type yet. Let´s not forget the lights please. Taking a good look at Libor´s photos, you´ll probably understand their special importance. One good guy invented fantastic 1000W lamps for Libor´s use underwater. Don´t worry, they work safely. But still they add some feeling of adventure. Some props like costumes or other requisities are to be used, too. Libor´s favourite thing to do except shooting nudes is fashion underwater.

A substantial element of Libor´s shooting are the models. But these models have to have a very special relation to water plus swimming skills and endurance (and fantasy as well). A three hour long session in the cold water is not easy. For the photographer, event though he keeps his body warm in a neoprene suit, the shooting is incredibly exhausting as well. So they all try to eat something to accumulate energy, but mostly there´s no time nor apetite for it. Transporting all the heavy gear to the location is hard work but if you ask Libor, why doesn´t he ask another strong guy to help him, he will probably answer, “Me and my Sabi can manage, we don´t need anybody else to disturb us.” These photos are so magic because everybody is alone while creating one joint thing. The photographer is alone with his lights and camera, the model is alone in the swimming pool – without goggles she can´t see anything but contours, half blinded by the chlorine water.

Recently Libor has been working on commercials and planning his next exhibition project from the Philippines. In the nearest future you can meet him and his naiads somewhere under the sea, using fish and sealife as extras.
Currently he’s preparing his next travelling Underwater Fine Art Nudes exhibitions, commercial campaigns and many other interesting projects. Simultaneously he keeps on running his diving school.

Scarlett & Ghost are a husband and wife team who are exploring sexuality and erotic forms through a love for photography. Based in Northern Ireland, both self taught on simple equipment our body of work has grown from a few simple snaps to hundreds over the last few years.

“With no set rules on shooting, we take our opportunities when we can and normally run sets on flickr based on a location or theme.”

“We started of shooting with a simple point and click lumix and quickly upgraded to an entry level Canon 1000d DSLR. We use whatever available light is in the environment where we are shooting and is controlled further within Photoshop.”

“We have been driven to keep taking shots by a large pool of wonderful photographers on Flickr, their comments and friendship have been a driving force in learning to shoot and edit erotica.”

“I prefer simplicity above all else and appreciate working with real women. By that I mean, women who aren’t necessarily who you’d find in a glossy magazine. Essentially, less production and more reality. There is a beauty in that, that you don’t see a great deal in the media-centric world.
For the majority of my work, I work alone with the subject and don’t rely a great deal on stylists, make-up artists or artificial lighting; it’s almost always just myself and the subject. I think it’s important to see the women who pose for me as they are, or as they want to be seen, and not who they’re stylized to be. I also prefer more natural locations and don’t work a great deal in the studio, though I guess wherever I work does become a studio of sorts in the end.
My vision is really to capture a simple reality that’s free of the constraints of the manufactured.”

Michael J Berkowitz about his passion for photography: “Previously, I was a sculptor and performance artist creating works around religious themes, in particular the power and importance of ritual in our lives. Seven years ago, inspired by a book of erotic photos from the 1800’s, I began to create vignettes in my studio and photograph women in them. I quickly fell in love with the images and the process and began to work in photography exclusively. Initially, my only wish was to create a beautiful image. As more women approached me wanting to pose, I began to focus more on the models, their interaction with me and the camera, and their desire to play a role and expose themselves. Many of them expressed to me how powerfully it affected them to pose, how liberating and empowering it was. Most of the models who pose for me are educated young women, many who’ve engaged in various kinds of sex work; they are go-go dancers and strippers, dominatrixes, escorts, and tantric masseuses. They are “testing the conceptual and experiential boundaries between degradation and empowerment, predator and prey, person and commodity.”  They are also exploring personal issues of body image, desirability, beauty and sexuality. As cosplay and role playing becomes increasingly popular, I give them a different kind of role to inhabit and thus reveal themselves. Again, my interest in ritual has crept back into my work. The images have become icons, hinting at mysterious and powerful female cults. I design and make all the costumes, jewelry, props and sets used in my photos.”
