Fine Art Nudes
Our Fine Art nude portraits are on display at LinneaLenkus.com
For centuries artists such as sculptors and painters have defined their craft by capturing the beauty and essence of the artistic nude female body. And most recently photographers, such as myself, have added fine art nude portrait photography to our portfolios. As a woman, I know that there are those fleeting moments when a female sees her nude body in the mirror and her mind actually registers and acknowledges the true beauty of her female form.
It may be a glimpse of the smoothness of her shoulders, the line of her chin, the depth of her collarbone or the curve running down her back. And for that moment, despite society’s definition and perceptions of beauty, she is present and she realizes she is beautiful. It’s those kinds moments that I long to capture and bring to life and make real for her forever.
One of my most favorite parts of the nude art portrait session is when I show my subject the image of her nude body in the window of my camera seconds after I’ve taken the shot. Inevitably she will say something like, “Wow, I didn’t know I looked like that,” or “I’m a lot prettier than I thought,” or “Is that really me?” And once she sees that first image, she feels safe with me, and she lets go of her negative thoughts, and relishes in the opportunity to celebrate her body and she is free.
It’s at this moment that the artist in me feels the ultimate connection.
