As a photographer, I am constantly in search of inspiration, Lagos, Portugal, has proven to be an endless source of natural wonder and creative potential. Recently, I had the privilege of conducting two art nude photoshoots at Praia do Canavial in, both at the same time of day, just after sunrise. What made these shoots truly special was the unique charm that each model, Paloma Setaro and Maria do Mar, brought to the experience.
Paloma Setaro: A Dawn of Grace
In the quiet tranquility of the early morning light, Paloma Setaro graced Praia do Canavial with her presence. The soft, warm hues of the sunrise painted the sky as Paloma effortlessly blended into the serene surroundings. The casual, carefree vibe of the shoot was a celebration of the simplicity of enjoying nature and becoming one with it.
Two of the most memorable moments from Paloma’s session was when she stood on the clifftop track with the early morning light. It was a moment of pure poetry, as she seemed to merge with the tranquil beauty of Praia do Canavial.
As a photographer, I found Paloma’s ability to connect with the environment and convey a sense of serenity truly remarkable. It was as if she had become an integral part of the coastal landscape, a testament to the harmonious relationship between humans and nature.
Maria do Mar: The Wild and Free Dawn
Two months later, under the same early morning sun, Maria do Mar brought a different energy to Praia do Canavial. The casual, carefree vibe of the shoot was a tribute to embracing the raw beauty of nature.
Two of my favorite shots from Maria’s session captured her in the same location and I love seeing the different energies both models brought to the shoot and the vibe I was looking for.
These two photoshoots at Praia do Canavial, with Paloma Setaro and Maria do Mar, were a testament to the ever-changing beauty of nature and the unique personalities that graced it. Paloma’s and Maria’s wild and free-spirited nature both added depth to the same breathtaking landscape. Each model brought her own style and vibe to the shoot, and as a photographer, I couldn’t have asked for a more enriching experience.
