FROM RUSSIA....WITH LOVE!

ALEXY is a 22 year old Russian but has lived in the UK for some while. He is a keen motorcyclist and can often be seen riding his powerful bike around London on his way to the gym or to another shoot.
Alexy is passionate about fitness and trains at the gym three or four times aweek. At home in Russia he was a gymnast and he intends to combine his gymnastic skills with his love of theatre by appearing onstage very soon...watch this space.

REGULAR MODELS

Over the next few weeks I'd like to introduce a few of my regular models, the first of which is HUGH.

Hugh is 23 and is a fashion and fitness model living near Oxford. He is 6'2" and very lean, with a personality and a great sense of humour. He keeps busy flying around Europe on various photoshoots and is in great demand ... but with his good looks and body its no real surprise!

The First..

Today was a first for me...my first test shoot for model agency Oxygen.
Must say I couldnt have wished for a nicer model to be my guinea pig!
Rick was calm and professional, a recent haircut meant he needed to update his port...
And the results? I'll let you decide........

WHO IS HOTSNAPZ?

I love to create images which are eye catching, tell some sort of story and above all represent the model in a style I like to think is my own.

Hopefully this blog will reflect my journey through the many photo-sessions to come, with notes on styling and personal details about the models I work with. Yes they are people, not just pretty faces!

I'm based in London, and my style is a mix of fashion, physique and artistic nude.
I really enjoy working with my models to create ideas and themes which reflect a model's personality, and achieve photographs which are both fun to do and good to look at.
