# About me

Have been on Deviant for a few years now and really enjoying it. I am a photographer and writer based in Australia. Adore women's bodies and also the essence of people. Try to present words and images that inspire. These days am not doing as much commercial work as I used to. However am running workshops in Melbourne and sometimes Sydney that help photographers to pose and connect with models. Also please note that all of the shots in my portfolio are natural and without air brushing.

Current Residence: Australia

Usually I can't look through "nude photographers" galleries on here because I become seething with rage that they're mainly putting pornography on here that is just under the boundary of being called pornography by technicality, despite the image having very obvious sexual intentions.

But your appreciation and passion for the natural beauty of the human body really shines through in your work. I love the thought that goes into each photo. The variation in body types is nice too, it's usually hard to find that. You have a beautiful gallery.

Hi Sophie,

Thanks very much for your feedback.Just read your perception piece and figure that I am trying to create images that most perceive as beautiful. As you suggest it is hard to please everyone as we do have so many different upbringings and perceptions.Very pleased that people such as yourself see deeply into the intention of my photography.

Best Wishes Tony.

You have excellent models and photography. I like how your models are healthy woman not always following the popular ideas of beauty. I also like how you have photos of a few man because the appreciation of the human form is not all about sex.

Your photos capture the essence of the human ideal that we should all strive for.

I want to thank you profusely for sharing your art and the art these women are working on with their bodies. Your photos of the female body builders is a constant inspiration for me to keep working on my eventual goal of being a body builder as well <3

Your one of few photographers who use physically fit female models as opposed to simply skinny women. Thank you! It's hard to find realistic female musculature for reference. Excellent gallery. Your photos are unique and fun too.

These are the types of models I am looking for!! THANK YOU!! These ladies are in the middle of muscular and well toned. The perfect combo! It is so hard to find good models for designing characters for visual arts (animation, comics, manga... etc)

Tonyr In reply to mrtaffy [2013-03-04 05:31:54 +0000 UTC]

Think it all comes back to balance. I like to depict female bodies that are well shaped and toned but not over the top.

JackBogong In reply to ??? [2013-02-14 07:10:56 +0000 UTC]

Nice photos. You treat the young ladies as beautiful people, not as sex objects like some photographers. It is quite possible to photograph & admire female beauty without eroticising it! Your poses seem quite natural, as though the girls are alone in the outdoors and the photographer just happens to come upon them. I don't like the overly sexy poses - poses that a girl wouldn't normally strike.

I'm in Melbourne and could be interested in attending one of your workshops.

Hi Jack, thanks for your feedback. One of my favourite passions is to present shots that look authentic. Think that this adds much grace to images. Would be happy to give you any information you may require. Best Wishes Tony.

I love how much effort you put into each photo, how you give each and every one a little backstory and something to think about. And the models are stunning aswell! I can see this being very helpful to me for drawing purposes, still learning about anatomy. Keep up the good work!

Uncanny-KodiaK [2012-10-28 05:11:22 +0000 UTC]

I have never met a photographer whose WORDS pop off the page as vibrant and brilliant as their image does. I found myself disappointed when your photo only had a few words or short description. You are an amazing photographer, but your words are the sugar to that spice.

Sometimes when I upload shots I lack the inspiration to write. However the combination is something I am deeply passionate about.

I'm not a photo person but I love fit women and gym shots and I'm absolutely in love with your photos (also great anatomy studies!). I think society often doesn't approve of women/girls that have a bit more muscle mass than they think would be appropriate, but I find it the prettiest ! And love your artist's comments! Keep up the good work !
