The latest in a series of blogs to go alongside the workshops that Misuzu and Dave Edkins run together: This instalment covers the situations in which it's okay to touch your model and how you go about getting consent for this.

Misuzu discussing some of the best props she used in her 2025 shoots. This post features various photographers.

This blog post features photographers: Dave Edkins, Rhianne Louise, Dave Gibson and Simon from a Misuzu and Dave Edkins workshop at ARB Studio in Longton. The sets were a pink dress, a black bodystocking, a rainbow body stocking with bubbles, standing bodyscapes, reclined bodyscapes and reclined bodyscapes with smoke.

The beauty dish! One of Misuzu's favourite lighting set ups that creates a striking high contrast result with minimal effort. This post features images captured by Dave Edkins on his Nikon D850 camera, and shows edits done by both Misuzu and Dave.
