Samantha Wolov Photography
San Francisco
San Francisco-based photographer Samantha Wolov (b. 1984) began her art career at the age of sixteen months when her mother would line the shower walls with paper and allow her to finger-paint murals in the bathtub, naked. This love of art would eventually become a degree in Art History from American University in Washington, DC. The comfort with nudity would eventually become a brief-but-successful stint in erotic photography.
Wolov, a self-taught artist, now shoots fashion and beauty imagery for editorial clients like FantasticsMag, Glass Magazine, and San Francisco Magazine, among others.
She prefers a clean, elegant aesthetic with deliberate color palettes as reference to the great artists she had studied in school, while maintaining a suggestion of just the slightest taste of subtle eroticism. Wolov sees herself as a "mad scientist" of sorts when developing stories, constantly drawing from the extensive visual vocabulary her unique background has afforded.

Caterina Bernardi Photography
San Francisco
"I was born in a town called Orkanger in Norway, the land of the northern lights and long winters. This is where I draw a lot of my inspiration from, with its incredibly dramatic scenery.
"After initially studying fashion for four years, I travelled the world for a year, eventually landing in Brazil. The warmth and sensuality of its culture and people had an immense impact on me, and I made it my home for several years. I learned Portuguese and discovered my own passion for photography, which eventually led me to San Francisco to study at the Academy of Art University.
"After graduation, I assisted various photographers and started pursuing stock and commercial work. In the past decade I have created high-end image collections for stock, and some of my clients include Gilead, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Vodafone, AT&T, and Warner Bros, while my work has appeared in prestigious photo publications such as Communication Arts, PDN, Graphis, APA Shows, and Graphic Design USA. Once a year the northern winds call upon me and I go back home and visit Norway, to feel the northern breeze and see the midnight sun."
