The island of Bali is a province of Indonesia and well known for its wonderful, natural beauty. It has a rich culture dating back thousands of years. And the first thing you sense when you visit the island is a certain spiritual vibe that you won’t notice anywhere else. Like the very special dance and music, the incredible food, and the warmth and hospitality of the Balinese people.

IN THIS TUTORIAL WE FOLLOW master photographer PETTER HEGRE in the middle of a nude figure session in what must be the closest thing to The Garden of Eden on earth. The exotic and fertile vegetation all around creates a perfect backdrop for the naked human figure, colouring the images with a spiritual touch.
Here, HEGRE shows you how to aim for the perfect shots as well as how to guide your model through the various positions and turns throughout the session.

Like what often happens in the tropics, a sudden rainfall took place in the middle of the shooting. And as you’ll see, only enhanced the splendour of the nature of Bali. And additional spice to the whole photo session!
Photographing fine art nudes is a delicate genre and one that requires a thoughtful, professional, and respectful approach. It’s also an area where artistry, ethics, and sensitivity intersect. Consent is paramount and make sure to agree with the model(s) on the intended use of the images in writing.

IN THIS MASTERCLASS, we follow photographer PETTER HEGRE at work in his studio in Barcelona, Spain. This time with a bit of an eastern flavor. The lighting is soft and flattering and general enough to cover a multitude of poses and movements. And with a neutral background in order to keep full focus on the figure.

Photographing nudes is more than most other genres a matter of collaboration, teamwork and trust. This film shows you how easily a photo session flows when the model and photographer work together as a unit.

If you are a beginner in the field, we recommend you to take a look at the masters of the form, like Edward Weston, Ruth Bernhard, Imogen Cunningham, and Herb Ritts to name a few. And not to forget the many excellent contemporary fine art nude photographers of today!

This masterclass features Petter Hegre directing a tall, slender model in his fine art nude photography studio. She starts by trying on a tight black one-piece swimsuit in front of a full-frame mirror, then transitions to artistic nude poses on the floor and a white bed. The footage captures her elegant form under soft lighting, with equipment like reflectors and timecode overlays adding a raw, professional feel.
