Elena C1

Another entry in my series of American Apparel ads (we'd like to see). If you're into strong women with ginger hair, you'll enjoy this set of Met-art model Elena struggling to get out of her polka-dot body suit.

Liz Ashley C10

Here's the promised follow-up to yesterday's Liz Ashley gallery. It was difficult to edit this series into multiple galleries, yet it didn't seem right to display them all together. I think you'll understand what I mean after you see the extremely sexy explicit shots at the end. We certainly wouldn't want to miss out on those, but we also don't want to diminish the impact of the glamorous, but less sexual portraits and fashion shots at the start. It seems to me that if you know about the delicious visions waiting for you at the end of this series, you'll pay less attention to the subtle grace and beauty you might otherwise appreciate up in front of the set. So I gave you some of that yesterday, and now today we can complete the story with a number of fully uninhibited poses I know you'll be thinking about long after the computer is shut down. Anyway, my work here is done. It's in your hands now... so to speak.

Liz Ashley C9

Here's the opening set of photos from my second shoot with Liz Ashley. This series is really sort of a tease - I have some very hot shots of Liz coming up next, but I wanted you to be able to concentrate for a while just on her face and some lovely artsy poses.

Monica P4

Let's visit Monica again, shall we? There's something about her - for me, she's got the perfect face and body; just the right mix of girl-next-door, sophisticated yet approachable, smart and goofy and bratty all at the same time, etc. I've even included a few of my test shots, and then some snaps when the makeup artist was tending to Monica's hair - just to give a bit of the behind-the-scenes feel. I have a few more explicit shots of Monica coming up, for those who are as smitten with her as I am.

TigerLily C5

You'll have to indulge me on this one - I started out trying to pick out a few bonus shots of TigerLily kissing a rose, and well I just couldn't find too many to edit out, so we have a full gallery of these. So enjoy, or not, either way, we'll have a lovely set of Monica tomorrow, by popular demand.

Ellena P1

This is an introduction to a new model, Ellena. These were shot in a Prague apt, with natural light, although the makeup artist thought we were using strobes - so you may notice her face seems a bit overdone for the ambient light. I could have just tossed the whole set, but I still like a lot of her poses. And I just hate to waste pictures of a naked woman, don't you?

Nella P1

Anyone familiar with the big European glamor sites will recognize Nella. She seems to be everyone's favorite lesbian; and I can verify that she loves girls as much as we do, and not just in front of the camera. I shot her in Prague on a late winter afternoon. This is a simple but sexy set of photos made in the fading light of our downtown apartment window. I ask you, is there anything more basically satisfying than watching a beautiful girl take off her clothes...?

Lola B C2

Another 100+ photos of Lola. This time she shows all the ink.

Lola B C1

Note: this is an enhanced, revised and renamed version of an earlier gallery. The original version contained less than half the images I'm now uploading. Also, tomorrow we'll be posting even more shots from this marathon session. For the sake of consistency, here is the original blurb we posted: Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present "The Illustrated Woman" - a gorgeous young creature with award winning luscious ruby red lips, large dreamy eyes and a seemingly random assortment of words, phrases, names, logos, icons, animals and flowers tattooed all over her lovely body. I confess I'm not a fan of the tattoo, and try to avoid it in my work, but I could not resist the chance to photograph sweet Lola naked. Before you judge her too harshly, just take a look at some of these shots - that enticing body, the big dark eyes, those truly amazing lips - and I think you may forgive her ink habit. Plus, more and even better shots of Lola coming tomorrow....

Prague ArtPrints2B

Here's the second part of the Prague Art Prints collection. Most of these models also have solo galleries on the site - just search by model name.

American Apparel - Amanda C1

So, I got a big box of clothes in the mail a few weeks ago. Totally unexpected. Totally unsolicited. Inside was an assortment of lingerie, spandex panties, multi-colored stockings, shiny shorts, and other girly things. And nothing in my size. Turns out it's from the American Apparel company, and they're evidently sending these free wardrobe boxes to a number of "famous" glamour / erotic photographers around the world with the simple instructions "do what you do, using our clothes in your shots, and let's see what you come up with". So that's what I'm doing, just for fun, and here's the first installment of what I like to call "American Apparel ads we'd like to see, but probably won't"

TigerLily C4

Ok, how to approach this one? The comments almost write themselves: something about planting a seed...,or something about a green thumb, or "a rose by any other name"..., A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, A Rose Grows in TigerLily..? No, let's not. This idea was requested by one of our members a while ago, and I thought it might make for some interesting images. And TigerLily was daring enough to help. Make of it what you will. Just fyi, no vaginas were injured during the making of these pictures. And they're not photoshopped either. If you look closely at some of the images you should be able to see the small glass cylinder holding the stem inside her.

TigerLily C3

This time the glasses come off, the dress comes off, etc. A nice set of nudes in my traditional painted canvas set. (Note to the budding amateur photographers in the audience: this set was done in a standard size San Francisco apartment, with one light and a consumer level digital camera. So you don't necessarily need a big studio and million dollar cameras to shoot "studio nudes")

TigerLily C2

Today another addition to the revised and expanded TigerLily galleries. This group is a bit odd, in that she looks like she could be 18 in some shots, and then maybe 38 in others (she's closer to 18, trust me). In any case, it's a nice mystery to investigate. Don't let anyone tell you the camera never lies. The camera ALWAYS lies - sometimes it's with you and sometimes it's against you.

TigerLily C1

We're doing some site upgrades and housekeeping this week - with some nice surprises coming in the near future. This set of TigerLily, for instance, is a revised and improved gallery from some shoots I did in my previous office. And we expect to be posting four more sets in the next four days, so stay tuned. Oh, and the site photos are now 50% bigger!

Monica P3

In our recent gallery updates, we've had a few days of rather sedate studio nudes - beautiful girls, beautiful bodies, but nothing too outlandish / provocative / obscene. Today, we swing the pendulum toward the other end of the spectrum with some very uncensored Monica. I shot her on my last trip to Prague and she is anything but shy. Gorgeous and dangerous at the same time, and in this case definitely Not Safe For Work.

LucyNela P1

For those who wanted more of Lucy, here are a couple dozen bonus shots of Lucy with Nela, during a lighting test in the Prague studio.

Lucy P1

Lucy has appeared on the site before, but never by herself - so this is her maiden voyage, so to speak. I posted a few prints of her on ebay, with Nela and Karin, and they all sold quickly, so I suspect she'll be popular on her own too. More of her coming up shortly.

Heather C1

This is a bit of an experiment - Heather brought a fantastic blindfold to the shoot, so I photographed her as I normally would, except that she was (mostly) blind. I think it works in an eerie off-beat way, but I also think that not being able to see her eyes removes some of the eroticism. Let me know what you think...

Yelena C2

As I mentioned last week, here is an updated set of black & white shots of Yelena. In this case I was able to reprocess the original scans so you'll find the usual 2000px images in the zip file. These shots represent my earlier old-school, classic studio nudes - model-on-pedestal, canvas background, pensive poses. I still really enjoy looking at this type of image, and still shoot this way from time to time. And Yelena has the perfect body for it - young and fit, innocent face, sexual but not too glamorous. By the way, many of these images are posted for sale in my ebay store. If you're interested in signed prints of this lovely girl, let me know and I"ll give you the member discount.

Yelena C1

Here is one of my favorite models, and perhaps one of the most overlooked by site members*. I'm reposting it as an update now, as we bring all our earlier content into the new format. Yelena was just 19 when this session was done, in my old Emeryville studio during a photo workshop. She was an agency model, but happy to do some nudes for my small group of students. These shots of mine were done as simple demonstrations of lighting and posing, but I think they turned out to be some of my most compelling nude portraits. (A separate series of b&w shots from this day will be going up shortly) *By the way, it's come to my attention that some Private Archive members may be missing out on about 50% of our content, if they are only viewing galleries with the large cover shots displayed in the center panel of the Archive Home page. Please be aware that the text links in the left side column represent about twice as many sets as the center thumbnail display. (scroll down all the way to the end to view the earlier sets.) PS: we're aware of the odd vertical stretch in the main cover display of Yelena - it's a problem in the php coding, which we hope to get fixed shortly.

Nea P5

Nea seems to have caught the attention of a number of Private Archive members, so we're presenting another set of her leather fetish photos now. Also, I've posted a few of the arty shots on ebay as 8x10 prints, for those of you interested in having a "hard copy".

Nea P4

I don't often use props in my shoots, but with Nea's leather and rubber outfit, the whip seemed quite appropriate. This was shot during a recent trip to Prague - more of Nea coming up shortly.

Kymberly C3

Kymberly is back, with another set of inspiring studio shots. This LA beauty is all natural - and a favorite for those who prefer the curvy fleshy type. She's always visually intense - but in person she's a real sweetheart.

Amber C21

We hear you - lots of requests for more Amber - so here is another series of our favorite redhead, completely nude for your viewing pleasure.

Amber C20

Amber is back with a new set of totally naked natural light photos from my sunny Oakland studio. She's one of my most popular models, a doll to work with and every bit as hot as she looks. And for Ginger aficianodos, she is a must-have.

Maria L2

Today we've got more photos of Maria - more photos, more better. These are not for the feint of heart - in other words, those who don't like crystal clear explicit close-ups.

Maria L1

This session with Maria was shot in London. I think she has just the right amount of imperfections (slight overbite, small odd tattoos) to make her the perfect object of desire. I have much more of her, coming up later this week.

Prague ArtPrints1

This collection is composed of some of my favorite art photos from my many sessions in Prague. The models were photographed in various studios and apartments, and in some cases during a long trip to Normandy. This is part 1 of a two-part collection. To view the listings for these art prints: Morey Studio Fine Art Photography Store

Liz C7

Here's Liz Ashley again, in a simple series of poses by my studio window. We were actually just testing the light and camera settings, but once I saw her there I couldn't stop shooting. There's little I can say about this model that I haven't said before - just about perfect body, face and attitude - the rare model who is as lovely in person as she appears to be in these photos.

Monica P2

Monica is back. With her pseudo Marilyn Monroe pout. Which we love, right? Anyway, we shot this in a cozy Prague apartment and I only noticed toward the end of the session that the window, overlooking the courtyard and three other apartment buildings, was wide open. Lots of thumbs up from the neighbors.

Guest Sarah Ellis via X-Muse

Here is the lovely Sarah Ellis, as shown on X-Muse.net (They are offering a discount right now for Moreystudio members - just enter the promo code "morey") This is the first guest gallery we've hosted in quite a while. I hope to be doing this more often, and giving members a bit more to look at each week.

Monica P1

One of the reasons I've been shooting in the Czech Republic is the difference in cultures regarding models and nudity. For example today's very erotic gallery of the gorgeous Czech fashion model, Monica, would be impossible to shoot with any American mainstream model. Just take a look...

Denisa P1

Redhead afficianodos will enjoy this series of Denisa, shot in the soft light of a Prague bedroom window. Is she a true redhead? Only her bikini waxer knows for sure.
