NOW IN 2nd SPECIAL REVISED PAPERBACK EDITION

WHAT MAKES LUBA such an amazing, important work? First, of course, there is the model herself. Recently married to Petter after the two met on a photo shoot, Luba is a young woman from Kiev, Ukraine, who, to put it bluntly, is blessed with killer looks. Graced by nature with an exquisite form, perfect features, and a vivacious spirit, she exemplifies the pleasurable paradox of a playful young girl in the body of a magnificent woman. The combination is electrifyingly erotic. Then there's Petter's dynamic, startling photo­graphic style. Able to capture women in both mundane and magical moments, yet still make their erotic essence shine through, Hegre plays with light, mood, setting, and styling in a way that makes it all seem so natural and fun. His composition is always fresh and fanciful, yet solidly grounded in the here and now. In short, even though his photos exhibit a world of pristine fantasy, Petter somehow figures out a way to let the viewer in. And isn't that what it's all about? Finally, there's the relationship between the model and the master. Without this, none of the wonder would be possible. And that relationship is more than just a marriage certificate. Hegre and Luba have a rap­port. They know how to dance together. She knows how to be herself in front of him, and he knows how to capture her being so. There's no po­sing, or false seduction, or staged glamour shots in this book. It is truly the visual diary of an intimate physical and spiritual connection almost voodoo-like Jack Gilbert, www.michelle7.com
