Veronika is czech future supermodel represented by NEVA Models agency. Artur Madej was invited to update her book before her trip to Paris. The goal was to capture her unique beauty and ebullient sensuality keeping it in minimalistic fashion look & feel.

To make her stand out on every picture I used lightning setups that gives edgy look to her face still keeping it soft and flattering. We decided to go without makeup - to enhance her freckles . Veronika did great job giving me poses and faces that were both sensual, mysterious and classy.

Behind her natural look there are hours of postproduction. I focused not on removing imperfections that are rare things with such great model but on celebrating things that make here so unique. I belive also that smart sharpening that shows beauty of skin texture and subtle toning gives that spark to images that separates flat snaps from moving portraits.

  1. These photos are stunning and I love that her "imperfections" were not removed or edited. It really gives you a sense of rawness that I think is much more attractive than edited beauty. It feels very fresh and realistically beautiful.
