WantonPhotography Pro

I'm a professional photographer based just outside Bath – in a beautiful country house overlooking the Avon valley, near Bradford-on-Avon. In the past few years, I've been able to devote more and more time to my creative interests, including wildlife photography and erotic fine art.

WANTON EROTICA

The word "wanton" was originally used to mean “wild”, “free” or “untamed”. For centuries, authoritarian moralists have taught us to associate these ideas with wickedness and folly – but generations of free-thinking artists and poets have tended to encourage a more positive, optimistic interpretation.

I define a "wanton attitude" to sexuality as one that is "uninhibited, consensual, playful, flirtatious, loving, generous and joyful" and "wanton erotica" as artwork which seeks to express, celebrate and encourage these positive emotions and feelings. It's aim is to create artwork that evokes feelings of erotic empathy with another person. It's not about taking pleasure, but sharing it.

That is the impression I hope to convey and encourage, through erotic photography. You will find examples of this approach in my gallery and also my storyboards, where I've collected images found on Adultfolio that have a wanton style to them.
