Painful smile. (Patreon)

I've done 2 shootings with Dovile "recently", one in May 2025, and one in May 2026.They are similar because both were in a hotel room, and in the same hotel, I did the second one only because I'm greedy and I love this model.This photo is from the one of this year, and I'm happy we did it, after all.Moving around the bathtub was uncomfortable, but she is always happy to endure the pain if it can produce an interesting image, and that's why I love her so much.And this candid image showing the mess in the set is very interesting in my eyes, showing a casual backstage insight on this beauty and on the process of working with her.It was shot on the Fujifilm X100VI with the help of the remotely triggered Profoto A1 flash.

Yesterday I did not post elsewhere, only on Patreon, so today I will post another 2 photos of Dovile from 2026, one on my regular social media feed, and one on DA Subscriptions.

By the way, Substack restored my profile, after having verified my post was flagged without reason.So that might be still a good avenue for the future...
