In their second collaboration, Danya returns to the creative space with renewed enthusiasm and passion for another unique photoshoot, this time featuring an aquatic harlequinesque body paint design by photographer Jason Lee. The setting is a serene wetlands area on the shore of a local lake, where towering trees gently dip into the water, framing the perfect natural backdrop. The body paint, intricately designed by Lee, captures the vibrant fluidity of water and the chaotic elegance of a harlequin pattern, contrasting beautifully against Danya’s skin.

As the shoot progresses, the paint begins to gradually dissolve and fade in response to the elements—the ripples in the water, the shifting winds, and the gentle sway of the trees. Each frame, expertly captured by Lee, reflects Danya’s strength and vulnerability, her body adorned in paint that speaks to both symmetry and disarray. The contrasts between the artistry and the rawness of her form slowly reveal her humanity, as the painted designs blur and melt away, exposing the essence of her being. In these transformative moments, the paint becomes a symbol of the layers of identity we wear, and as they wash away, Danya’s true beauty emerges, radiant and unrestrained, free from the confines of artificiality.

One of the things I love about plein air body paint shoots is the raw creativity involved – the atmosphere, the collaboration between artist and model and the creation/destruction of the one-time piece during the process of the shoot. Every part of it is fascinating.

In their fourth collaboration, muse Hannah and photographer Jason Lee, a striking body paint photoshoot took place amidst the captivating landscape of the desert. Set against the backdrop of rare rock formations found in only a few parts of the world, including Idaho, the shoot offered a unique and visually stunning environment. Hannah’s natural beauty and artistic expression were enhanced by the intricate body paint, creating a mesmerizing fusion of art and nature. Both Hannah and Jason embraced the creative process wholeheartedly, resulting in a successful shoot filled with joy and excitement. Through Jason’s lens, the beauty of the desert landscape and Hannah’s captivating presence were immortalized, capturing the essence of their collaborative endeavor.

As usual, Hannah rocked this shoot and we had a blast doing it. It’s definitely been fun working with her.

Accompanied by KC, Jason Lee explores a college campus adorned with raw concrete and brick. Delving into the interplay between the human form and elemental structures, Lee captures KC’s striking presence.

While clothed, KC blends into the crowd effortlessly, but when nude, she radiates a powerful aura, commanding attention amidst the sparse surroundings, creating captivating imagery. Her form in the images we captured shines out from the sparseness behind and around her.
