The Patrons’ Letter — August 2026
The Patrons’ Letter — August 2026
Hello everyone,
This August I am inaugurating a new section of the blog: The Yes Photographies Patrons’ Letter for August 2026.
This letter will appear once a month. It will let you discover the new series, the recently enriched rooms and the various developments of The Reserve, the Yes Photographies space devoted exclusively to you.
This first appointment comes with an important change in how I publish my work.
From now on, each month you will find a much wider selection of my most recent creations. New photographs will no longer be kept back for many months before being revealed: they will gradually join The Reserve, as close as possible to when they are made.
To inaugurate this new organisation, the August update is particularly important: several thousand images have just been added to the site.
Some belong to entirely new series. Others complete worlds already present, while several collections have been reorganised or enriched to make exploring them more enjoyable.
Here are the main spaces where you can discover them:
This month’s additions
 | More than 500 new photographs enrich this category devoted to contemporary imaginaries and visions of the future. There you will discover cyborgs, a magnificent retro-futuristic Barbarella, an astonishing cryptocurrency museum, as well as several series of sensual fashion worn by a splendid model. Technology, science fiction, futuristic aesthetics and vintage references meet there in very different worlds. Discover Modern and Future: https://www.yesphotographies.com/modernes-futures |
 | Several galleries in this world have been greatly enriched. In Dreamlike, more than 100 new photographs await you, including a romantic, sensual Asian world and a very beautiful winter series. The Duos gallery also welcomes around a hundred new images, including a couple series inspired by Venice. In Creative, you can discover an absolutely sublime clown woman, as well as a goddess of the Moon and creativity imagined around the astrological sign of Cancer. Finally, around a hundred new photographs also join Of the World. We played cowboys and the peoples of the great plains in the studio, before setting off for a very different manga world. Discover Emotions and Connections: https://www.yesphotographies.com/emotions-connexions |
 | More than 300 new photographs have been added to this world devoted to reinvented eras, historical tales and painterly inspirations. In the Historical gallery, you will find Wendy & Mary, an original story imagined in the world of Americana and rural America. A pirate series and a creation inspired by an ancient Orient also enrich this gallery. In Painterly, I invite you to discover a very beautiful duo series, of which I am particularly proud. The retouching and set-creation work plays an essential part in it. You will also find a series inspired by Aphrodite that I love. Discover Echo of the Past: |
 | The Myths and Legends world also welcomes more than 300 new photographs. In Dark, a splendid model becomes in turn beautiful, sovereign and disquieting, surrounded by diabolical creatures and succubi worth damning yourself for. In Goddesses, a magnificent woman embodies a sumptuous Oriental world, enhanced by precious body jewellery. The Mythological gallery welcomes a splendid aquatic creature and several woodland elves. Finally, in Warriors, a woman in golden armour takes her place at the heart of a particularly spectacular epic set. Discover Myths and Legends: |
 | More than 700 new photographs join this category devoted to the body as material, presence, line and territory. The galleries of artistic nudes, lingerie and boudoir have been greatly enriched. You can also discover new, rawer explorations in Primitives, as well as several series of Bodyscape, where the curves of the body become almost abstract landscapes. Light, textures and compositions are central here, with an approach deliberately more photographic than narrative. Discover Body and Essence: |
 | This is the most important update of the month: more than 1,700 new photographs enrich this category. There you will discover new sensual images carried by particularly careful work on light, materials and atmospheres. The Erotic gallery alone welcomes an exceptional release of nearly 1,000 images. The worlds are very varied: citrus fruits, Easter, Basic Instinct, pearls, a revisited shibari, as well as a creativity that is at times frankly uninhibited. You will also find a virtual-reality duo as funny as it is sensual, along with several powerful black-and-white series: couple, chiaroscuro, intimate portraits and more graphic compositions. It is unquestionably one of the star galleries of this update. Discover Eroticism and Sensuality: |
 | The 4K galleries are currently being updated. I have reached a threshold in the site’s storage capacity and must carry out a major clean-up before I can add new ultra-high-definition images. I will take care of it as soon as possible so that I can keep enriching this space under the best conditions. Go to the 4K Gallery: |
 | The update to Studio Immersions is considerable too: more than 4,000 photographs have been added. I went back to a very large number of raw images from studio sessions. They received deliberately light retouching: skin correction, harmonising the light and removing photographic equipment visible in the frame. All the Studio Immersions categories have been enriched. This space now lets you discover much more broadly how the sessions unfold, the variations around a single pose and everything that is built up gradually in front of the lens.

Where to start?
Faced with such a big update, it can be hard to know which door to open first.
For this August, I suggest you start with:
RECOMMENDATION 1 | RECOMMENDATION 2 | RECOMMENDATION 3 |
 |  |  |
If you like the painterly, I invite you to discover this duo series that I love. A very delicate duo between two very beautiful models and significant work on the sets. | If you like humour and suggested eroticism, go and discover the series with my couple of friends whom I adore. A VR series and a series inspired by Manara "Le parfum de l'invisible", exactly the style I like, funny and sensual. | An obvious recommendation for this goddesses series with body jewellery and an Oriental inspiration. I pushed the creation of the sets further, and this series let me envisage new ways of making sets. |
 |  |  |
You can then let yourself be guided freely from one room to the next, according to the worlds, models and stories that draw you.
Temporary exhibitions
Did you know that your Patron access also lets you discover the space devoted to the temporary exhibitions of Yes Photographies?
Each month, I present What’s New in the Studio there, with several series recently created, finalised or entirely reworked.
This space will now become one of the best ways to follow my work almost at the pace of its creation.
A new monthly appointment
This letter will deliberately be published only once a month. I want it to remain an eagerly awaited appointment, rich enough for you to gauge the evolution of the site, without multiplying notifications with every image added.
It will not necessarily draw up an exhaustive inventory of everything that has changed. Rather, it will point out the new doors worth opening, the creations I particularly want to bring into the light and the paths I recommend you explore.
Thank you, once again, for supporting my work and making possible the development of this immense photographic museum.
I wish you a very beautiful exploration of this first update.
