12 Natural Wonders - Brazil 2014

12 Natural Wonders BRAZIL 2014 Inspired by a lifetime love of Pirelli Calendars, internationally acclaimed photographer Paul Giggle has produced the second collection of breathtakingly beautiful women in 12 Natural Wonders – Brazil. With Brazil synonymous for having some of the sexiest and adored women in the world, it was no surprise that Paul chose to capture all the vibrancy, warmth, colour and energy of South America’s largest country to coincide with the FIFA 2014 World Cup. While 12 Natural Wonders Brazil embodies the diverse cultures, landscapes and flavours of the Brazilian beauty, what makes it collectible pieces of art is the meticulous and thoughtful research surrounding every shot, resulting in a glorious photographic exploration of the true natural wonders of Brazil. Paul explains his quest to represent not just any ‘bikini girl’, but the very essence of Brazil’s women - all presented through a warm, sun-drenched hue that saturates the 12 images. “We traveled all over the country to find the perfect backdrops to reflect the natural wonders of Brazil from the tropical vibrancy of the famous beaches like Ipanema and Copacabana Beach, to the tropical beauty of North of Brazil. “I also wanted to represent all the wonderful ethnic flavours of Brazil; from the amazing blondes with their Dutch heritage, to the South American Indian influence with their very olive skin and long dark hair and then there is the quintessential powerful Amazonian Brazilian beauty as captured in the jungle style shot in the month of September. 12 Natural Wonders Brazil is the second in the series following the first Australian collection featuring twelve stunning models in a series of nudes amidst the raw beauty of the Australian coastlines. The 12 Natural Wonders calendar is part of a long-term project taking Paul to a different country each year.
