If anyone who followed my last IG account wondered where it went, you can thank Instagram for my 10th deletion 😅💪. Pretty sure I’m done with that platform for good in terms of the work I enjoy sharing, so back to Bluesky it is 😎

Pierced . . This is Emi . . #fineart #artnude #piercednipples #nipple #polkadotdress

Had the most amazing experience this past weekend shooting Kate (@artdecomodel on IG) after following each other for years, but never being in the same place at the same time. Her body control is next level . . . #artnude #nudeart #fineartnude #artisthands #bodysculpture

Mermaid Queen . . This is Euro, shot in City Island, Bronx, NY...that's right...Da Bronx . . . #artnude #nudeart #mermaid #tiara #fineartnude #dabronx

Do-Over . . Hadn't realized it until someone commented that I'd uploaded the IG-friendly (ie censored) version of this shot here yesterday...which completely defeats the purpose of my Bluesky account. So "apologies" for the reload; this is Erin Mae, whom I shot in Bushwick . . #artnude #nudeart

"They're real, and they're spectacular" . . April, again . . . April Kidwell #seinfeld #nudeart #artnude #bosom #allnatural #breasts #closecrop

Simple Portraits Of Complex Subjects . . This is my friend, April Kidwell; she's been off social media for the past five years, but Google her and you'll see what she's all about . . . #artnude #fineartnude #portraiture

A favorite portrait I’ve shot of anyone, ever…it all just fit for me here. This is @bellatrixortreat.bsky.social . . #fineartnude #artnude #blackandwhiteportrait

Every Rose Has Its Thorn . . Here’s a shot of a model who prefers to remain anonymous taken on Long Island’s infamous (for all the wrong reasons) Gilgo Beach. Infamy notwithstanding, I love this beach, and this model…although she’s disappeared into the ether . #nudeart #artnude #beachbody

Isabella...Up On The Catwalk . . . . #nudeart #artnude #fineartnude #nycskyline #bnwphoto

Not sure I like Bluesky's presentation of a series of pics vs one alone. Both on desktop and on the mobile, you are presented with a thumbnail grid of the images, rather than the first image alone, diminishing it'simpact. Think I will stick with solo images going forward. Anyone feel similarly?

Purple Haze . Something’s afoot on the Meta platforms. This image was deleted multiple times in prior IG uploads. Perhaps it’s Zuck’s new stance, or the fact that I’m inexplicably no longer shadowbanned, but I reposted today and it’s still up. Go figure. Marcella. . #artnude #nudeart #breasts

Post-Shibari Rope Burn . . Another shot of Marcella. As I've told her personally, to me she is "the gift that keeps on giving" . . #nudeart #artnude #industrial #shibari #kinbaku #ropeburn #rope

She Comes In Colors Everywhere . . This is Kasia, a Polish-American model I’ve really enjoyed working with. This is from our second shoot, in Greenpoint, Brooklyn . #therollingstones #tights #fitmodel #impliednude #artnude

CUNT . . A post in which I face my fear of the “C word” head on. A post in which I relish in the freedom this platform has given me…us…the ability to express ourselves freely, provocatively, and without fear of repercussion. I like it here. . . Domina #artnude #nudeart #free #cunt

Sex On Fire . . . This is Cyndal McKay, a remarkable California girl who came to NYC, tried her hand at modeling...and returned home to California . . #impliednude #nudeart #smoking #smokingfetish #brightlightsbigcity #kingsofleon

Here's a shot of @bellatrixortreat.bsky.social, from our first shoot together. We've only shot twice together, over a four year span, and yet she remains one of my favorite people I've connected and co-created with. IG deleted this shot multiple times. #artnude #fineartnude #nudeart #whiterabbit

Lake of Fire/Madame Butterfly . . This is a shot of Courtney Giannone, a dancer who was then-based in NYC, on a bitterly cold morning in Peekskill, NY...the warmer water steaming into the cold air. I liked what we captured in this moment. . . #dancer #butterfly #flowarts #movementarts

Full Frontal . . The other side of Anais (see prior pic) . . #nudeart #fineartnude #artnude #translucent #seethrough

I’ve had two shoots with Anais, a French model based in Paris, who loves NYC so much she wants to move here. This capture is from our second shoot, I just love all that’s going on in her back . . #artnude #fineartnude #nudeart #back #frenchmodel

I don’t want my Bluesky to be solely focused on nudity despite the newly-found freedom I sincerely love here. Here’s a portrait of Avie I shot a couple of years ago where I caught a moment I enjoy revisiting . . #portraiture #blackandwhitephoto

The French Baker . . This is Diane, and that’s her profession. How’d you like them apples? . . #nudeart #artnude #allnatural #breasts #abs #baker #frenchwoman

A candid shot of Marcella, pretty how much she is and appears behind-the-scenes of every shoot . . . Marcella #joy #happy #portraiture #impliednude #blueeyes #italiana #bts #candid

The Right Angles . . Emi is a Brooklyn-based model and artist. This shot was an homage to a shot I'd seen online and was inspired to emulate. It's much more difficult than it seems, but she had the right proportions to execute the shot . . #nudeart #artnude #fineartnude #bnwphotography #pierced

Friends, especially NSFW photographers and models who have become completely disllusioned with the restrictions/antics of Instagram - I think we have an opportunity to "right the wrongs" of IG and make this a fun, adult platform that respects artistic expression and freedom. What are your thoughts?

Gone Girl . . (Friends, sorry about the re-load, I decided I prefer a closer crop. As I mentioned originally, this was a one-and-done shoot, I was ghosted by my model here for reasons I can only guess were jealous boyfriend-related. #nudeart #topless #fineartnude #beachbody #blackandwhitephoto

This is Marcella, one of mine, and many of my followers most loved models. She also happens to have the distinction of being the most deleted model of mine on Instagram; I guess the platform can’t handle her figure, even when censored. Go figure.

Instagram, which has been my primary photo sharing platform for the past decade, deleted a completely censored version of this shot earlier today. Fuck that shit. Bye Felicia, Hello Bluesky #artnude #nudeart #nudephotography #blonde #newbie #community #firstpost #blackandwhitephotography
