I came to a conclusion recently … a new personal understanding of some sort … … one of the unconscious sources of my inspiration is this well hidden & rather profound sense of melancholia in beautiful women … and by beautiful I am talking about their way of thinking, their heart … and by melancholia I don’t mean depression or self-pity … but this subtle air of longing that once you recognize, it’s hard to ignore … and harder to photograph really … you can try to imitate it but it’ll become more like a caricature … and you certainly can’t force it …. you can simply hope when the moment arrives you are ready for it … without disturbing it.

When I say that all my women are dazzling beauties, they object. The nose of this one is too large; the-the hips of another, they are too wide; perhaps the breasts of a third, they are too small. But I see these women for how they truly are… glorious, radiant, spectacular, and perfect, because, I am not limited by my eyesight. Women react to me the way that they do, Don Octavio, because they sense that I search out the beauty that dwells within until it overwhelms everything else. And then they cannot avoid their desire, to release that beauty and envelope me in it.

Wolf’s deep awe and appreciation for the beauty of women is shown as a constant through out his work. One only needs to look at the ease of the models to get an appreciation of the style of Wolf

goobajelly asked: Your work is awesome and very beautiful.But-question: Is there a reason you only shoot mostly naked women?

Thank you very much.

The question is a bit wrong since I have and do shoot many other subject matters as well… however in this blog, for the most part, I post fashion, erotic, fine art nude and similar style photographs.

I started with landscape photography which quickly turned into street photography and later I ventured into journalistic, documentary, people, portrait, travel, fine art, editorial fashion and erotica.

On the other hand, I love women and find them to be beautiful… so I photograph them as often as the opportunities present themselves. I like the psychological connection that I found with each female subject and hopefully my photographs show that their beauty goes beyond their skin.

Question: Would you recognize my shots if you see them somewhere?

1. Would you recognize my shots if you see them somewhere without “Wolf189” being mentioned anywhere close to the images?

2. What if they are not portraits of women/models? What If they are street photography, travel or journalistic shots?

3. And would you like to see any of my travel/documentary/street shots here?

Cheers
