Product Description

The award-winning and renowned photographer behind the lens of Beautiful, Marc Baptiste offers us another very intimate look at women. Baptiste's inspired, unique, and sensual classicism is bolder than ever in Intimate. Surpassing standard portraiture, his photographs manifest a strong eroticism while incorporating the cinematic power of his fashion work. Intimate highlights Baptiste's passionate, intelligent, and seductive approach to capturing the essence of femininity and beauty. This book is sure to appeal to all admirers of the female form.

3.0 out of 5 stars scattered and distant, March 13, 2004
By drollere (Sebastopol, CA United States) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Intimate: Nudes by Marc Baptiste (Hardcover)
this book suffers from an excess of professionalism: as a successful fashion photographer, baptiste has adapted too well to the demands of shooting for the editorial, and the models shown here are much too practiced in looking pretty on cue. the result is a variety of photo techniques that don't seem especially keyed to the human themes in the photos, and a variety of models who do not communicate any intimacy because they are all so obviously *posed*. helmut newtson is an obvious yet undigested influence, and any newtson collection completely surpasses the emotional impact of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars a moment, November 30, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Intimate: Nudes by Marc Baptiste (Hardcover)
Simply put, this book is sexy. Although it is quite different from his first book "Beautiful" he still captures the strength,
femininity and power of being a woman. He has captured very private moments yet his subjects look stunning and not forced. It's a stimulating coffee table book even for the prudish (it may make them blush). Hats off for another great body of work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Two Words: Unabashed perfection, August 15, 2005
By Sinnamon Love "Chic Geek" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Intimate: Nudes by Marc Baptiste (Hardcover)
I purchased this book for a lover as a Christmas gift a couple of years ago. He'd always expressed how it was my photograph that first drew him to me... I found this book at a store in midtown Mahattan and was became, entralled, as I flipped page after page. I purchased two copies, one for him and one for myself. I've always been a fan of Mr. Baptiste's work and can only hope to be fortunate enough to one day sit before his lens...

It's ok, there are some great shots, but also some so so shots. I was hoping for more and better produced shots, but did not get that. I would not buy it again.

The other reviewrs must see something that I don't see. The photos are pretty much average. They lack style and imagination. Spend your money on somethig better.
