Dave Naz (Photographer)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 2004

Flexible toes, high arches, full thighs and the seamless sheer pantyhose that adorn them; the girls in Dave Naz's world have legs that just won't quit. Unlike other compilations devoted to praising a particular body part, this collection showcases the entire woman, inviting us to see the whole person and not just the fetish object. Each model displays her own personality, her pleasure in being seen, the eternal dance between exhibitionist and voyeur, and Dave has done all the footwork.

Review

Dave Naz’s images are truly masterful insights into "REALITY EROTICISM"-- -- Gregory Dark, Director, January 2005

From the Inside Flap

As a long-time fan of the female form, it‚s a pleasure to spend a moment praising the sly eye ofDave Naz. Where others might reduce flesh to mere abstraction, in his photos Dave lets the entire body speak for itself. While the main subject of the image may be prominently displayed, the viewer is encouraged to gaze elsewhere in the shot, lingering where fancy dictates before returning to the main theme.

In the case of this book, that theme is legs. Unlike other compilations devoted to praising a particular body part, this collection showcases the entire woman as she shows us her legs, inviting us to see the whole person and not just our fetish. Indeed, each model displays her own personality, her pleasure in being seen evident in the way she engages the camera directly. Some sport tiny smirks, others wide grins, but all are having a great time playing their part in the eternal dance between exhibitionist and voyeur.

In his exhaustive, successful search for beautiful, elegant, playful, curvy, lean, warm, sophisticated, sweet, saucy, sexy, leggy women, Dave has done all the footwork for us. He‚s unwrapped the candy bar so that we may enjoy the sweet treats that are these images. Encased in sheer silk and the highest of heels or bare and natural, the legs you see here will inspire the most delightful reverie. Nina Hartley

2.0 out of 5 stars Dissapointing for the price, November 29, 2005

By 

George (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Legs (Hardcover)

I was a bit apprehensive about buying a book like this online because you cannot browse the content inside. The photo of the girl on the cover blew me away as well as others.

The content inside is abysmal. You will find much better stuff in digital form on the 'net. There are probably a dozen pages of material I don't want to see again. Some of the girls look real and they are captivating, but I am not sure which pictures are actually Naz's and which are not after reading the fine print in the book.

The Two stars are for the few good pictures in the book, and I mean good by erotic, sensual, or beautiful.

1.0 out of 5 stars Title should be Nylons instead of Legs., November 18, 2005

By 

The "Vinman" (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Legs (Hardcover)

This book should be titled Nylons instead of Legs, because that's all you see are these average looking models wearing nylons; if your into seeing girls wear nylons this is the book for you. If you're into the types of models and poses that are on the cover, then don't buy this book. This book is going into the trash.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very clean look to it., September 27, 2005

J. Ochoa (Walnut Creek, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Legs (Hardcover)

The printing and photography are of very high quality. Nice clean look. As stated before, the backgrounds enhance the images. Only a few of the models are "inked." Primarily white women with a few asians, I found them all attractive. Some tall, some short. Some younger, some older. Almost all in stockings. If you've purchased magazines of this genre, you'll see some familiar images. Don't buy if you're hoping to also see "nether regions," because the book really focuses on the legs. It is a legit fetish book, and at this price, a heck of a deal.
