From what I've been told (i.e. I don't know myself), he's at least
as capeable as Morten (Krogvold), just that he chooses a different

beautiful young woman, which would I choose....hmmmm, that's a
difficult one... ;-)
Assisting for Avendon is not something everyone get's a shot at, I
would expect he must have had some quality to get the position, and
probably learned a lot.
So what is controversial about beautiful nudes? Aren't we living in
one of the most "sexually liberated" societys on the planet, isn't
the year 2005 (soon 2006)? And people *still* get offended? I don't
get it.
Neither do I. I have a lot of respect for Petter's work. Even more,
I respect him for building up an incredible fan base with his books
and web site. He makes a decent income from the web site without
having to cross over into porn. His models are lovely, and always
photographed in a respectful way. Just browse around on the net for
a little while and you will see how far above the other stuff his
work is.
Criag Morey is an American photographer who has done similarly well
with a web site and books. www.moreystudio.com
