You do not have to be a Ulysses, tied to the mast of your ship in order to fall victim to the beauty of these Sirens.

German photographer Stefan Soell takes us on a photographic excursion to Portugal’s southern Atlantic coast, together with ten models of exceptionally striking and distinctive looks. These Sirens are frolicking in the foaming surf, and playing in the winds and sands of this wild coastline, enhancing their natural eroticism. Stefan Soell is a master at capturing their joyful but provocative and enticing play.

The photographs for this book were taken over a period of five years during long stays in the far South Western area of Portugal. The lonely, undeveloped Costa Vicentina in the west, the Cabo de São Vicente in the east, and the rugged cliffs of the Algarve are one of the last sections of natural coastline in Europe. Usually, the locations could only be reached on foot, so having light, portable equipment was important, as it enabled longer coastal expeditions with maximum flexibility when taking pictures. All photos were taken exclusively with natural light, without additional brighteners or reflectors.

Stefan Soell began to take photos at the age of 15, and soon landscape and portrait photography had become his favourite subject. In addition to his astonishing talent at choosing the ideal background and selecting key details, he also has the rare knack of capturing ideal lighting conditions. Stefan Soell is one of the few photographers capable of capturing the full potential of his models to capture every aspect of their beauty.
