The images of Hans van Ooyen are reflections of the female inner sensuality. The strong body's with their beautiful perfect shapes, are set up in a highly contrasted undefined scene.

We can only focus on her, let our eyes touch the body and follow the rounding's closer and closer. Because Van Ooyen often only uses parts of the body in Close-up the experience is even more intense. Sometimes he even leaves out the woman's head, so it becomes almost a generalization of the women's sensuality.

The usage of light, with strong contrast, is very traditional. It gives the images a somewhat darker suspense and makes the model come forward very well. Very original in erotic model photography is the way he uses structures on the soft female skin. He uses textures like feathers, latex, sand and stockings to disturb the shape or on the contrary follow the shape. It ads a graphical touch and pulls the images out of the regular model photo's.
