Coimetrophilia; a special interest and fondness in cemeteries and graveyards (noun).
Anyone who looks at my blog regularly will know now much I love photographing in cemeteries. One of my current projects is to photograph nudes in all of London’s ‘magnificent seven‘. On Thursday I ticked the fifth (Abney in Stoke Newington) off the list with the angelic Honey.
This was by far the busiest and trickiest one to photograph in so far and we had to be very quick and opportunistic in a way that was most definitely pushing our luck. Usually for a shot like the one below we’d have pushed our way deep off the main path into a wilder patch, but here the whole of the cemetery is cut with numerous paths and the graves occupy small patches between them. For this one I was actually stood on a main path and Honey was just a couple of rows in. But she comes well prepared – knickerless, braless and with a strapless dress she could quickly pull up and down. She really is the boldest and the best!
This is an absolutely beautiful photograph.
Serene and peaceful … and far from looking out of place, Honey just seems to belong there.
Beautiful colours, beautiful pose … just stunning .
Love this !!!

This gloriously lush, the surrounding and the subject x
Love a daring shoot! How great you have such storied places unlike much of the States across the pond!
Stunning sot – I love how vibrant Honey’s hair is amongst the foliage
Yay for photography trips with friends! And this is such a stunning shot, Honey’s hair really pops out against the surrounding greenery.
Amazing and you are right, she is the best model
