Photographer Jasper Soloff

(United States)

Can you tell us a little about you?

I’m a photographer and director based in New York. My work lives somewhere between fashion, portraiture, and narrative—often centered on people who feel culturally charged or slightly misunderstood. I’m interested in image -making as a form of authorship, not just documentation. Whether it’s a celebrity, an artist, or someone completely unknown, I’m always chasing presence.

How and when did you get into photography?

I came to photography early, almost instinctively. I was always looking at images—magazines, campaigns, films— and trying to reverse-engineer how they made me feel. Photography became the fastest way for me to respond to the world around me and to build my own visual language.

What does photography mean to you?

Photography is how I think. It’s a tool for closeness, control, and curiosity all at once. At its best, it’s a collaboration—an exchange of energy that creates something neither person could make alone.

Please briefly describe your photography style for our readers.

Cinematic, emotional, and colorful. I like tension—between polish and vulnerability, glamour and realism. My images often feel stylized but grounded, with a strong point of view and an undercurrent of story and identity! I want my images to feel fun and real.

Where do you get inspiration from?

People first. Then film, fashion, pop culture, and moments that feel culturally specific to right now. I’m drawn to references that feel lived-in rather than nostalgic for nostalgia’s sake. I’m interested in authentic portraiture, where I can capture somebodies true essence.

20

Do you think in advance what you want in the picture?

Yes and no. I usually have a framework—lighting, mood, references—but I leave a lot of room for surprise. Some of the best images happen when the plan breaks and the magic happens.

Studio, on location or both?

Both. The studio gives me control and precision; location gives me chaos and realism. I like switching between the two to keep the work from feeling predictable.

Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid professional?

A paid professional—but with the mindset of someone who’s still obsessed. If it ever feels like just a job, something’s wrong.

What has been your most memorable session and why?

Probably working with Billie Eilish. The most memorable shoots are usually the quiet ones—when the subject drops their guard and the camera disappears. Those moments don’t always look dramatic from the outside, but you feel them in the final image.

Nikon or Canon? Favorite lens?

Canon. I tend to gravitate toward portrait lenses—something that lets me stay close without flattening the subject.

What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a new photographer looking to start their own business?

Develop your point of view before chasing validation. Gear, clients, and platforms will change—your voice is the only real currency. Also: be professional, be kind, and don’t undervalue your work.

What do you think of our new magazine?

It feels intentional and well-curated, which is rare right now. I appreciate that it prioritizes voice and perspective over trends—that’s what gives a publication longevity. https://www.facebook.com/casper97987 https://www.instagram.com/jasperegan/ http://www. jaspersoloff.me Issue 117 - March 2026 - Modellenland Magazine

Photographer Maxime Carlier (Belgium) Can you tell us a little about you?

My name is Maxime Carlier and I am a photographer from Belgium. My journey has not been a typical one. I first studied hospitality at Hotelschool Koksijde where I trained as a chef and maître. School was often difficult for me because theoretical learning was challenging, but in practical work I was always one of the strongest in class. I learn best by observing and doing.

I also live with autism and ADD, which means I experience things very intensely. For several years I ran my own restaurant and lounge bar. While it was a valuable experience, the pressure and stress eventually became too much and I experienced a severe burnout. Looking back today, that difficult moment forced me to change direction and rebuild my life.

How and when did you get into photography?

I discovered photography during the Covid period. At first it started as curiosity and a creative outlet, but very quickly it became a passion. Because I learn best by doing, I spent countless hours experimenting with lighting, cameras and composition. I also followed many workshops and lessons to develop my skills.

Step by step photography evolved from something I loved into my profession.

What does photography mean to you?

Photography is much more than taking pictures. For me it became a way to rebuild myself and find purpose again. It allows me to capture emotion, beauty and personality in a single frame. Every image tells a story.

Please describe your photography style.

My work focuses mainly on fashion and portrait photography. I like clean, elegant and powerful images that feel cinematic but still natural. Lighting is extremely important to me and I enjoy creating depth and atmosphere through professional lighting setups.

Where do you get inspiration from?

Inspiration comes from many places: fashion magazines, films, other photographers and creative collaborations. Working with models, make up artists and stylists always sparks new ideas and pushes creativity further.

Do you plan your shoots?

Yes, often I prepare moodboards and lighting concepts beforehand. However, I always leave room for spontaneity during the shoot. Sometimes the most beautiful images happen naturally.

Studio or location?

I love both. Studio work allows complete control over lighting and atmosphere, while location shoots bring a natural story and environment into the image. I am currently also working on opening a new professional studio space together with my father.

Hobby or professional?

What started as a passion quickly became a professional career. Today I work on fashion shoots, portraits and creative projects and collaborate with organizations such as Miss Belgium.

What has been your most memorable experience?

Working with Miss Belgium has been a very special experience for me. It gave me the opportunity to photograph incredible people and events and helped me grow both creatively and professionally.

What gear do you use?

I mainly work with Sony cameras. My favorite lenses are the 24 70mm and 70 200mm because they are extremely versatile for portrait and fashion photography.

Advice for new photographers?

Practice as much as possible and never stop learning.

Photography is not only about equipment but about understanding light, people and storytelling. Building strong relationships with other creatives is also very important.

Future plans?

My goal is to continue growing creatively and professionally. Together with my father I am developing a new studio space where photographers and videographers can create and collaborate. I also want to keep expanding my work in fashion and editorial photography.

Personal journey There was also a moment last year where things became extremely difficult for me. I spent nearly three months at home struggling with heavy anxiety attacks. I didn’t dare to pick up my camera, open my computer or even go outside. It was one of the darkest periods in my life.

Fortunately, with the help of my doctor and the right treatment, I slowly found my way back. Today I feel much stronger again and photography has once again become something that gives me energy and motivation. https://www.instagram.com/carlier_maxime/ https://www.instagram.com/maisoncreatief/ https://maisoncreatief.be

Venus Festival '25 The Venus Festival ’25 in Berlin from September 25th to 28th was an electrifying celebration of sensuality and creativity. It was more like an extravaganza of self-expression than a convention. Everywhere you looked, people were radiant, boldly creative, and utterly themselves. Their energy was contagious. From the moment I stepped into the Berlin Messe, the energy was palpable. Music, lights, and exhibits were instantly inviting. There was playfulness everywhere. The event's sense of inclusivity was a notable standout. Visitors and exhibitors alike explored sexuality sans judgment.

Performances were stellar by Vikings of Valhalla • @vikinglust_com • Pussy Kat • @therealpk90 • Dellai Twins • Eveline Dellai • @evelinedellai • Silvia Dellai • @silviadellai_999. You felt like a participant, not just a spectator. Meet-and-greets with famous content creators were authentic and personable. They were genuinely happy to share a selfie, offering connections that went beyond the grand revelry.

Stands brimmed with creativity. Exhibitors from over 40 countries showcased everything from classy lingerie to futuristic sex toys. Whether you’re curious or deep in the scene, innovation was everywhere.

The organization was impressive. Kudos to the Venus staff! Queues were unavoidable at peak times, especially for popular shows, but the sheer spectacle made it worthwhile.

All four days were provocative and thrilling. The atmosphere was remarkably open and friendly. What struck me most was how safe it felt. It was all about being genuine, expressing love, and exploring without repression. Venus isn’t just an event; it’s a statement: Authenticity belongs to everyone. This was Berlin at its boldest and most beautiful, reaffirming its place as the world’s capital of fearless sexuality.

Venus doesn’t just sell boldness; it connects. For anyone curious about eroticism or just interested in celebrating their freedom of expression, this festival is a must.

Photographer Cornelia Ghergutț (Romania) Can you tell us a little about you?

My name is Cornelia Gherguț, and I am a portrait photographer based in Iași, Romania. I am 57 years old, married, and I have a technical background in Automation and Computer Engineering. For many years, I worked in a structured technical environment. After turning 50, I felt the need for a natural transition, a new stage of life where my creative side needed more space.

Photography had been a passion for many years, mostly through travel and landscape images. Over time, it became a conscious choice. I believe that every stage of life brings us closer to who we truly are.

How and when did you get into photography?

I began photographing with artistic intention around the age of 40, when small digital cameras became accessible and easy to carry. At that time, I had discovered my love for mountain hiking and wanted to preserve not only the memory of those landscapes, but the feeling of them.

When I realized my images did not reflect what I felt, I began studying photography seriously - light, composition, technique, and editing. Gradually, photography became more than a hobby; it became a path of personal refinement.

Please briefly describe your photography style for our readers.

My style is Fine Art, timeless, and carefully composed.

Light and color are essential in my work. Although I deeply admire the timeless monochrome aesthetic of early studio photography, color remains fundamental to my own visual language. In many of my projects, I use authentic Romanian traditional costumes. I do not approach them in an ethnographic or documentary way; instead, I treat them as artistic symbols, elements that carry memory, identity, and continuity. Sometimes I subtly integrate modern details, allowing past and present to coexist in the same frame. For me, the costume and the decor are not the subject in themselves; they serve the portrait. What truly matters is the presence of the person, the quiet strength and authenticity they bring into the frame. Even in my personal projects, I do not work with professional models. I am drawn to ordinary people, because authenticity matters more to me than perfection. I aim to create portraits that feel outside of time, images that could belong equally to yesterday and tomorrow.

84

Where do you get inspiration from?

My inspiration comes from old paintings and from vintage studio photography, both of which have always fascinated me. I am equally inspired by authentic folk art and by the beauty of nature. I deeply appreciate the way things were once made, with patience, care, and artistic craftsmanship.

Handmade art and natural materials move me in a way that modern mass production rarely does. This is also where my passion for old Romanian traditional costumes comes from. They are not just garments, but expressions of identity, memory, and dedication. At this stage of my life, I consciously choose not to follow trends too closely. I try to protect my creative voice from being shaped by what is fashionable or popular, even when it comes to photographers I truly admire. I believe that artistic maturity comes from refining one’s own vision rather than constantly adapting to the current moment.

What does photography mean to you?

For me, photography is a form of gratitude for the world we live in and for the beauty that surrounds us. Through photography, I try to notice that beauty, especially in people, and give it back to them, so they may see themselves with new eyes.

Do you think in advance what you want in the picture?

I usually prepare ideas and select props that match the atmosphere and color palette I have in mind. At the same time, I leave space for spontaneity. The connection with the person in front of the camera can subtly reshape the direction of the session. For me, photography is a balance between intention and openness.

Studio, on location or both?

I work both in the studio and on location, but for professional portraiture I prefer the studio. It gives me full control over light and atmosphere, elements that are essential to my style.

Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid professional?

I would say I am somewhere in between.

Photography does not fully support me financially, but it occupies the primary place in my life. Not depending entirely on it for income gives me a certain creative freedom. It allows me to remain faithful to my own artistic direction. I approach my work with professionalism, continuous learning, and commitment. For me, dedication matters more than labels.

What has been your most memorable session?

I do not have a single most memorable session, just as I do not have a single favorite photograph. Photography is a living process, and every encounter brings something new.

Nikon or Canon? Favorite lens?

I shoot with a Canon R6 Mark II. In the studio, I most often use the Canon RF 24–105mm f/4 for its versatility, especially in a relatively small space. I also appreciate classic portrait focal lengths such as 85–105mm, but the flexibility of the zoom allows me to adapt quickly without compromising composition.

What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a new photographer looking to start their own business?

Passion is essential, but it is not enough. A sustainable photography business also requires organization, communication, discipline, and an understanding of the business side. Trust and consistency are built over time.

What do you think of our new magazine?

Modellenland Magazine is a valuable platform that gives visibility to creatives from diverse backgrounds and styles. It offers not only exposure, but also a space to share the vision behind the images. I am honored to be featured and to be part of this creative community. https://www.facebook.com/cornelia.scutariu https://www.instagram.com/corneliaghergut/ Issue 117 - March 2026 - Modellenland Magazine

TEARS OF STRENGTH

BECAUSE TRUE STRENGTH DESERVES TO BE SEEN Manfred Baumann

With the new DAC Calendar 2026, Dancer Against Cancer presents an extraordinary photography project: “Tears of Strength.”

The portrayed personalities appear in an unfamiliar, deeply profound setting—behind a glass wall covered in water droplets. What at first glance resembles tears symbolically represents courage, hope, and inner strength. It stands for the power to remain visible, open, and human despite challenges.

The calendar will be presented for the first time as a complete work on March 25, 2026, and will subsequently be available at www.danceragainstcancer.net Norbert Oberhauser, Katharina Strasser, Christa Kummer, Michael Konsel, Claudia Reiterer, Kimberly Budinsky, Timna Brauer, Helge Payer, Silvia Schneider, Andrea Händler, Andrea Kdolsky, Günther Löffelmann, Heribert Kasper A special highlight of the year will be the 19th Dancer Against Cancer Gala on April 18, 2026, at the Vienna Hofburg.

Tickets are available now www.danceragainstcancer.net

Photographer Michael Oxkjær (Denmark) (Re-Post 2024) Can you tell us a little about you?

I’m 60 years old, married, and have an 20-year-old son. I am a self-employed individual, specializing in website development and online marketing. Additionally, I engage in some commercial photography. A significant part of my time is dedicated to the local photography club, where I serve as the chairman. I have a passion for Photoshop and regularly stream on Twitch while editing images, hoping others can learn from my editing techniques.

How and when did you get into photography?

It was a bit of a coincidence; I experienced stress-related issues back in 2014 and ended up in the hospital with symptoms resembling a brain hemorrhage – fortunately, that wasn't the case. However, it led me to find a hobby to get a break from work. Photography became that hobby. So, I haven't been photographing for a particularly long time compared to many others, but photography plays a significant role in my daily life.

What does photography mean to you?

Photography means a lot to me. It is my way of meeting new people, forming new friendships, and creating a lot of cool pictures. I primarily shoot model photos, and being creative with others gives me an energy boost and surplus in my everyday life.

Please briefly describe your photography style for our readers.

I am very detail-oriented (at least, I think so), and my photographic style is very clean. By that, I mean I can't stand dirty backgrounds and similar elements – the images should be clean and neat. Consequently, I spend a relatively long time editing photos, but for me, editing is a significant part of the photography process. All images go through Photoshop to present the models in the best possible way; I feel it's somehow my "duty" as a photographer.

There might not be much storytelling in my images; the beautiful and neat aspects mean more to me.

Sheila @sheilameyhofflazar

Where do you get inspiration from?

I draw inspiration from various sources, such as magazines, websites, Pinterest, Instagram, Kavyar, and Facebook.

When I come across some cool pictures, I save them in my notes and use them as inspiration for future shoots, especially when I have a model with the right look. Many times, models also come up with ideas, and I highly appreciate it when that happens.

Do you think in advance what you want in the picture?

It happens sometimes, especially when I come across some inspiration, but quite often, we figure it out based on the clothing the model brings to the shoot. For me, it's a challenge to make the most of what we have available and to set up the right lighting, etc., without everything being planned in advance.

Studio, on location or both?

I would say both have their merits. Shooting on location is always great because you have surroundings that can add more life to the pictures. On the other hand, you have 100% control in the studio. In Denmark, we have very unstable weather, making it challenging to plan a location shoot more than a few days in advance.

Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid professional?

I would say both, somewhere in between. I use the hobby part to test various things that I can then apply to my commercial photography.

@emiliathulin

Nikon or Canon? Favorite lens?

None of them, I shoot with Sony. I love Sigma lenses and use no other brand. They are super sharp and cost only half of what Sony lenses do. I enjoy shooting at a wide aperture, so my favorites for location shoots are the 50mm F1.4, 85mm F1.4, and 135mm F1.8. In the studio, I tend to use the 24-70mm F2.8.

What has been your most memorable session and why?

There have been many, but what stands out most vividly in my memory was when I first started taking pictures. I participated in a workshop on model photography, and it was the first time I was going to photograph models.

After completing that workshop, I knew that it was what I wanted to do—working with people. It was a significant eye-opener for me and clearly the reason why I do what I do today.

What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a new photographer looking to start their own business?

Believe in yourself, take pride in what you do, and always do your best – every time.

What do you think of our new magazine?

I love when a new issue comes out; it's always inspiring and exciting to see what others are creating, especially because you feature many creative amateurs in the magazine. https://www.facebook.com/PhotoByMox - https://www.photobymox.dk - https://www.instagram.com/oxkjaer

Chromatic Threads

by Sonia Jiménez Cambronero

The Chromatic Threads collection, created by stylist Sonia Jiménez Cambronero, is a statement of intent that places hair in a new creative territory: the fusion of textile art, contemporary fashion, and chromatic architecture. In this work, hair is conceived as a living loom, where color interlaces to form a powerful, vibrant, and ever-moving graphic language.

The horizontal and diagonal stripes running through the hair evoke artisanal fabrics and geometric patterns, while also recalling digital aesthetics. The result is a work that bridges tradition and avant-garde, showing how hairstyling can engage in dialogue with disciplines as diverse as fashion, graphic design, and visual arts.

The chosen chromatic palette reinforces this narrative: intense reds, warm oranges, and golden gleams interweave with the depth of black, creating a contrast full of strength. Greenish highlights appear as an unexpected note, a subtle nod both to nature and to technological modernity, bringing a fresh and surprising nuance.

Sonia Jiménez Cambronero’s proposal stands out not only for its bold use of color, but also for the technical precision it demands. Each stripe, each transition, each gradient has been crafted with meticulous care, turning hair into architecture. The result is not only aesthetic but also conceptual: it seeks to demonstrate that hair is not passive matter, but a living canvas capable of transmitting messages and emotions.

“Color is identity, and hair is a canvas in constant transformation,” the stylist affirms. Under this premise, Chromatic Threads highlights the importance of advanced coloring as a tool for building unique styles and expressing the personality of the wearer.

With this proposal, Sonia Jiménez Cambronero reaffirms her place as a benchmark in the field of creative hairstyling, opening new possibilities for understanding hair as contemporary art.

Hairdresser and Color Expert Sonia Jiménez Cambronero, a renowned hairdresser and salon owner in Sant Vicenç dels Horts, is an expert in color techniques, earning her the nickname “The Color Magician.” She stands out as a passionate educator, leading workshops throughout Spain and abroad. Her mission is to bring education to every corner, helping profes-sionals accurately diagnose and achieve exceptional results from day one.

Her tireless work and dedication to elevating the industry have made her a respected figure in the world of hairdressing and color.

K.E.M.E

by Joel Ibáñez Maturana

This collection is born from the feminine pulse that lives within every woman who is unafraid to show herself as she truly is. Joel Ibáñez Maturana created “K.E.M.E.” as a tribute to the women who have shaped his life —those who taught him that true beauty lies not in following rules, but in breaking them with elegance and conviction.

“Each of them taught me a different form of strength. Karina, with her unbreakable spirit; Emma, with her luminous serenity; Michelle, with her overwhelming energy; and Elisabeth, with her freshness and freedom.

They are my roots, my mirror, my inspiration.” — Joel Ibáñez Maturana The shapes, volumes, and textures of this collection translate that feminine essence that flows between tenderness and determination. Cuts that defy the predictable, colors that evoke power and confidence.

A proposal designed for the modern executive woman—one who leads with authenticity, who needs no permission to shine, who looks in the mirror and recognizes in her reflection her entire story.

“K.E.M.E.” is more than a collection: it is a tribute to the invisible force that unites the women of a family, of a generation, of a world that changes when they choose to be themselves.

About Joel Ibáñes Maturana - Joel began his exciting journey in the world of hairdressing at the young age of 17, as an apprentice hairdresser in his hometown. His dedication and talent soon caught the attention, and at the age of 19, he took a significant step by joining the prestigious firm Raffel Pagès.

- Thanks to his tireless work and the rigorous training offered by the Raffel Pagès training institute, Joel quickly rose through the ranks, becoming a first-grade officer at the early age of 20. This achievement marked the beginning of a meteoric career.

- At 22, Joel took on the challenging role of director at LLongueras Elite Menorca, located in Ciutadella de Menorca, where he demonstrated his ability to lead teams and successfully manage salon operations.

- With a clear vision and the desire to create something of his own, Joel decided to return to his homeland at the age of 29, where he founded Joel Beauty Salon, his most personal project to date. Located in the bustling town of Castellbisbal, Joel Beauty Salon has quickly gained a reputation as a destination of choice in the community, known for its urban approach and specialization in color and blonding services. But not only that, Joel holds a technical qualification oncological prosthetics, providing comprehensive and specialized services to those who need it most.

Photographer Vincenzo Vinci (Italia) (Re-Post 2024) Can you tell us a little about you?

My name is Vincenzo, I live in Syracuse How and when did you get into photography?

As a child I was fascinated by seeing photographers portraying us during ceremonies, in particular one of my uncles, my mother's brother, would portray us during family celebra-tions and then bring the development of that day spent together, this aroused great amusement for all the rela-tives present in that circumstance.

What does photography mean to you?

From there my interest in photography began to grow.

Please briefly describe your photography style for our readers.

In portrait photography I find that interest I once had, because I find that as the years pass, we are able to look back and see ourselves as we were.

Where do you get inspiration from?

From an article of clothing, a facial expression.

Do you think in advance what you want in the picture?

I believe that a shooting session should be planned in advance with the client, only in this way can the needs of this underwear be reflected, perhaps the ongoing improvisation during the shooting doesn't hurt.

Would you consider yourself a hobbyist or a paid professional?

Also dictated by fiscal pressures, I did not undertake the profession of photographer and family vicissitudes directed me elsewhere. Today I am an avid hobyist, I experience photography as an expression of art.

What was your most memorable session and why?

At the time I was 23 years old and with the photographer where I went to work, he was commissioned to create a catalog of swimwear for the sea. The island of Lipari was chosen for the location, we stayed for a whole weekend in a specta-cular structure, surrounded by various models who had arrived there just for that event, they were three inter-minable but fantastic days.

Nikon or Canon? Lens?

Canon, Olympus, Fuji, Laica M, I get inspired by the kit I have available on that day.

Francesca Finocchio

What is one piece of advice you would like to offer a new photographer looking to start their own business?

I don't know if I would recommend it, the world of photography is going through a par-ticular moment, finding clients willing to spend the right amount is a rarity, meanwhile there is a lot of work behind an image and, as far as I can tell, it is difficult to be recognized as profitable.

What do you think of our new magazine?

It's a fantastic magazine, it manages to give vent to tho-se who gravitate in this sector. It certainly helps to tell the story of how we were! https://www.facebook.com/vincenzo.vinci.391 https://www.instagram.com/envinci_

“This is my most honest work!”

This is how Manfred Baumann describes his latest photo book!

In this work, Baumann devotes himself to his great passion: street photography. He captures the small, fleeting moments of urban life – gestures, glances, silent dramas, accidental humor, and the quiet beauty of the streets. Moments that would be lost forever without his trained eye and intuitive sense of the right instant.

A truly great photograph has a soul – something an AI can never create.” – Manfred Baumann Born in 1968 in Vienna, Baumann has photographed legends such as Sir Roger Moore, Tony Curtis, Olivia Newton-John, and Kirk Douglas. As a Leica Ambassador, National Geographic photographer, and Honorary Ambassador of the Jane Goodall Foundation, his works have been exhibited in galleries and museums from Sydney to Washington, from Vienna to Los Angeles.

The table book contains 250 photographs spanning over a quarter-century of Baumann’s work – from Australia to Los Angeles, New York, Thailand, and nearly all the major cities in Europe.

MOMENTS is a tribute to urban life – raw, authentic, and full of stories. A book for anyone who wants to feel the pulse of the streets before the moment passes.

The photo book was recently presented for the first time in Vienna – attracting high-profile guests and extensive media attention.

Cloud Dancer

by Sonia Jiménez Cambronero How to Adapt the Color of the Year in the Salon Barcelona. January 2026. The Color of the Year, Cloud Dancer, is positioning itself as one of the most indemand shades in hair salons this season. Inspired by the lightness of clouds and the serenity of neutral tones, this ethereal hue moves between a soft white, a pearly beige and a very delicate blonde, making it an elegant, luminous and timeless option for clients seeking sophistication without excess.

Adapting Cloud Dancer to a professional salon requires technical precision, prior diagnosis and absolute personalization. It is not a flat color, but a clean, balanced visual result with movement, where hair quality is just as important as the final tone. “It’s a color that doesn’t allow improvisation. The base must be perfectly worked and the hair healthy, because any imperfection is immediately reflected,” explains Sonia Jiménez Cambronero, professional hairstylist and color specialist.

To achieve an impeccable Cloud Dancer, Sonia recommends starting from light bases or hair that has been previously lightened in a controlled way, using progressive lightening techniques such as ultra-fine babylights or strategic veils that add light without oversaturating. “The key is not to overload the hair. Less is more.

Working with soft lightening and then toning with customized formulas is essential to achieve that signature cloud-like effect,” she notes.

One of the most important professional tips is the use of toners with cool and pearly undertones, combined with subtle beige reflections to avoid an overly white or dull result. In addition, Sonia highlights the importance of at-home maintenance: “Cloud Dancer is a beautiful color, but it requires commitment. I always recommend nourishing treatments and specific products to maintain shine and the purity of the tone.”

In the salon, this color can be positioned as a premium service, accompanied by haircare rituals that enhance the overall experience. From reparative treatments prior to coloring to cuticle-sealing protocols after toning, every step contributes to elevating the final result.

“More than a trend, Cloud Dancer represents a new way of understanding color: more conscious, more natural and much more personalized,” concludes Sonia Jiménez Cambronero.

A shade that invites professionals to refine their technique, care for every detail and offer their clients a sophisticated, elegant and thoroughly modern blonde.

Hairdresser and Color Expert Sonia Jiménez Cambronero, a renowned hairdresser and salon owner in Sant Vicenç dels Horts, is an expert in color techniques, earning her the nickname “The Color Magician.” She stands out as a passionate educator, leading workshops throughout Spain and abroad.

Souls illuminated There are moments when a camera is no longer a symbol of technology but a conduit for the truth. For Gabriel Dusil, the camera is a quiet rebellion against society’s obfuscation of intimacy. His images reveal a deeper portraiture — not of physiology, but of essence.

Every shoot is sacred ground. A studio, park, or windowsill is a backdrop for moments suspended in time. In this journey, models are the narrators of emotions. Each writes a visual poem that whispers, “This is who I am”.

Dusil Photography’s path has not been without controversy. Nudity walks a tight rope between art and erotica, often judged by a world eager to censor. In this, he sees courage. “Art confronts society’s judgment of empathy as weakness”, he reflects, “But empathy is humanity’s greatest strength. My images celebrate freedom against a Nietzschean society that dictates what is ‘normal’.”

Through years of exploration and collaborations, Dusil’s work has evolved — but its essence remains: revealing truth through authenticity, capturing souls unguarded and confident. His goal is not fame or monetary gain but to remind us that beauty and bravery are woven under the skin.

“A photoshoot is an act of surrender”, Dusil explains, “I bring improvisational creativity so that my models can overcome their fears and open their hearts.” Together, they meet in a vulnerable space where magic is born. This is where Gabriel Dusil finds truth and invites the world to witness a soul illuminated.

Canvas of a Creativist A Manifesto Laid Bare • My creative doctrine is not theory. I live it. I practice it. Every session is an experiment in trust. Every model is a teacher. Some arrive nervous, some confident. Others mask pain in euphoria in their performance. All are welcome. We find the right tone and go beyond. Some poses are painful, yet performed effortlessly. It’s not always easy. Vulnerability never is. On the other side of discomfort lies radiance. When the shoot ends, we reflect on our achievements. A sense that we transcended reality.

Presence & Truth • Sometimes, lighting and backdrops aren’t right in photography. Sometimes there’s no connection between the model and the photographer. But there's always honesty in self-reflection. In those moments, I learn. My models are active voices. Together, we create images that honor presence over objectification. I want her agency to remain vibrant and undeniable. As a male photographer, I’m aware of the social and emotional context of my art. My role is to shape my creations with their truth.

Photography is a Mirror • Viewers bring the past into their observations of the present, carrying with them wounds, doctrine, and axioms. Their perception of the world reveals their true self. People viewing my images exhibit a range of polarizing reactions. Some recognise the art in nude art. Others feel that I've crossed a forbidden, socially unacceptable threshold. In truth, my images become a mirror to their desires and shame. Through judgment, they become part of my art. If a photograph disturbs, ask why. If it sparks an emotion, then begin a conversation.

Artistic Truth • Photography transcends the real world, becoming a soulful act of connection and philosophical inquiry. It's a fusion of technology, emotional intelligence, and artistic integrity. Photography’s duality serves as a mirror to our humanity. Empathy and presence are more potent than optics and lighting. Every model is a unique opportunity to see the truth — not just about the model, but also about the artist.

The Imperfect Perfect • For every image that resonates, there are a hundred that miss the mark. Faltering is a humbling part of progress. An imperfect frame teaches more than a perfect one. It reminds me that I’m not a magician. Should I have pushed or paused? Did I hesitate when I should have taken the initiative? This examination is part of my journey. It’s not about perfection, because this implies an eventual conclusion. Creativity has no endpoint. I’ll be happy when I humbly reach the talents of my idols.

Emotional Layers • A nude art photoshoot is a distillation of light and shadow — of silence and secrets. Dusil Photography is dedicated to revealing the emotional layers invisible to the naked eye. A declaration that every model is a work of art. Beauty reveals our humanity. ○ To models who trust me with their stories, I say, “Thank you”. ○ To those who resonate with my work, “Welcome”.
