Hegre-Art may be the perfect example of how work pressure can kill a person's creativity. Just take the time to compare between Hegre's old works and the new ones. It's somewhat rare these days to find some galleries from there which are that tasteful. Which is strange...He has somewhat shifted from presenting simple artistic images of his beautiful models into producing tasteless erotica and I believe the reason is simply because you can't just be creative when you have all that pressure to produce new galleries.
Creativity or innovation isn't something that is to be pushed. You just can't produce a creative thing when you want to. You must prepare for it, wait for the inspiration, think about how the gallery may look like, the costumes, the studio or outdoor settings. Unfortunately, that's not the case with most of Hegre's new galleries. I am just left to wonder about the reason his creativity and innovation were killed.
This is a gallery of one of his beautiful Ukrainian models, Lana, he has used the old window light idea that almost every photographer has used, but, at least he produced some beautiful images by doing so.
Mr. Hegre..If you ever read this..Please take the time to think about the gallery and to get to know the model, I am bored of all your "bedside" galleries and the poses that you use over and over again. Sex sells, but this doesn't necessarily mean that sexual images are that good, beautiful, or innovative. If you're going to continue producing the same galleries you are now, then you should change your domain to Hegre-Erotica.
Anyway, I hope that you will enjoy this gallery of Lana from Hegre-Art.
I was just listening to a song by the German band Regicide called "Nothing In Here", The song is mainly dealing with the superficial values of our modern world which basically want women to look the same; skinny with tons of make-up on, but how does this relate to Graceful Nudes?
Some people may call me superficial when I mention that a certain model is beautiful without even getting to know her, some people may comment on the fact that I don't include pictures of women who are overweight. A simple reply may be, We have the right to appreciate outer beauty, however this kind of appreciation becomes obnoxious in real life only when this is the only thing you appreciate about a certain person, you should appreciate their personalities, their beliefs, and theirselves. These are the important things.
I don't include pictures of overweight models because I don't want to promote the health dangers associated with obesity.
Anyway, I just wanted to express a part of my philosophy regarding my choice of galleries to feature.
O.K. Back to our main topic, here's the description of Kathryn provided by Hegre-Art:
"Kathryn was born in South Africa but currently resides in London.
SHE MAKES her way in the world as a professional model and was delighted at the chance to work with a photographer like Petter Hegre. Having become used to the confines that are common in the world of fashion and glamour work, the opportunity to let loose and do a shoot completely nude was a fantastic change of pace.
With a slim and toned body, Kathryn readily admits her love of nature, especially the ocean. Her long brown hair and light complexion gives her the appearance of a mermaid when she glides through the water, her body moving with a certain harmony that only those who love the sea can possess.
Petter couldn't help but laugh a little and called her a hippie when he learned that she is a vegetarian, a fact that she is quite proud of."
Once you look at her model profile at Hegre-Art, you will understand why her sets are amongst my favorites. Some models seem to bring out the best of Petter, if you notice all of her galleries are innovative and unique.
This is just one of her sample Galleries from Hegre-Art.
Enjoy Kathryn in Esthetical!
More Marketa Belonoha Galleries
Marketa is one of the most beautiful models online, her beauty has been captured by many photographers and every photographer added his own touch to her beauty. You can see the true skill of Petter Hegre in this gallery. I believe that his classic works are much better than his modern ones, which are more sexually oriented than ever before. Some people prefer his new style, I can see some great images that are produced by him these days, but they aren't as great as those he produced a couple of years ago. This may be the price you pay for fame.
I hope that you will like this Hegre-Art gallery.
Enjoy!
This is a truly majestic gallery from Hegre-Art. Even though the idea is not that new, the gallery is substantially unique. It may be Dasha's inborn grace that's making it so enchanting, or it may be the classy settings at which the gallery was shot. However the reason behind its may be, it's always great to be able to enjoy such a tasteful gallery.
Enjoy this Hegre-Art gallery!
There's a remarkable mood of serenity and relaxation surrounding this gallery; Angelica's beauty is very calm and the soft lighting is making one feel very comfortable. This is one of those galleries that make you forget everything about your daytime stress.
I hope that you will like this Hegre-Art gallery of Angelica.
Enjoy!
There are certain things that I like about Hegre-Art, one of them is the quality of his images, I don't mean the image resolution by quality, I rather mean the sharpness and the overall image saturation. This can easily be done by a good image editing program and an expensive camera. So, what's the thing that makes this website special?
I believe that the beauty of his models may be the first secret behind his amazing success, I don't think that anyone didn't hear of his website or the excellence of his imagery till now, however, it's not just the beauty of the models, it's the way with which he takes pictures of them as well.
The only thing that I don't really like about Hegre-Art is the repetition of ideas, I have seen almost every one of his models next to a bed and doing the same poses, it's not that I hate it, but I would appreciate it if he takes more time thinking about where his next gallery will be shot. Searching for new locations can make his already excellent galleries unique and will indeed inscribe his name in gold on the walls of the hall of fame.
I hope that you will like this Hegre-Art gallery.
Enjoy!
What I really liked about this gallery is the green color in the background and the classy style with which these shots were taken.
I hope that you will like this gallery of Paulina from Hegre-Art.

Marina is one of the models who can remind you how sweet life is supposed to be with her innocent clear eyes and her charming smile, I always try to include as much information about the model when I can, that's because I believe it's a part of respecting the models, so here's the information included in her profile at Hegre-Art:
"Shy and sweet, Marina is the youngest of five sisters.
Normally such large families go one of two ways; they either all hate each other, or they remain deeply devoted for generations. Fortunately Marina is of the later of these two categories. Marina finds solace in going to church every Sunday and has been an active member of a religious dance troop for the last six years. As if that wasn't innocent sounding enough, she also loves fruits with ice cream. She studies art in college and lives on the University campus." - Hegre-Art
I really respect her spiritual side and her love for art which reminds us all that beauty is a gift of nature which is to be enjoyed rather than to be hidden and locked behind a thousand doors.
The fact that she's a University student proves that she's very ambitious, I have never tried living on campus, but, I believe it's not a very pleasant experience(lack of privacy, someone who's always tracking your progress...etc), she seems to be enduring it all and her study of art proves that she's a lover of beauty.
I can't really find something that can be considered artistic about this gallery, however, it's respectful to Marina, that's makes it eligible for inclusion of graceful nudes.
By the way, Hegre-Art has some easter special offers, maybe it's time to join if you have been wishing to do so for a long time.
I hope that you will like this Hegre-Art gallery.

I am sorry I cut the flow of Lezhan's galleries, I really like offering you all the galleries I can of the models I find special, and Lezhan is one of the models whom I consider very special.
I have just noticed that Hegre has used two versions of Lezhan's name, he used Lezahn in some galleries and Lezhan in others, I am not from South Africa but maybe the pronunciation makes it easy to write it both ways or maybe it's just a typo by an editor(I doubt that it's a typo as Hegre is known for his professionalism, and even though I don't like all the contents he offers, he sure has a so good design of his website that a lot of other websites are just literally imitating it). If you're a member of Hegre-Art then I recommend that you go to Lezhans profile in the models page and download her Sunrise and Sunset galleries, which are some of my favorite Hegre galleries.
I hope that you will find this gallery attractive.
Enjoy!
Old buildings are beautiful, I know that this may sound strange but I love the green aggregations of algae, they are never a source of disgust, on the contrary, they always have the most wonderful of patterns and give old places a special kind of beauty.
Ira D is also a very beautiful lady, however, there's a certain sullen expression on her face which gives me a strange feeling. I am not sure why, but it seems that she is concerned about something....maybe she's worried about posing outdoors.
Anyway, I hope that you will like this Hegre-Art gallery.
Enjoy!
