An art nude collection where the bare female form meets the solemn poetry of old graveyards—a haunting meditation on impermanence, intimacy, and the quiet allure of forgotten places and the timeless dance between life and death.
I’ve always been drawn to contrasts—the way beauty can feel even more alive when set against a rugged backdrop. In Graveyard Girls, I photographed women posing nude in historic graveyards in England and America. Weathered headstones, tilting crosses, tangled grass—these are the backdrops for moments of pure vulnerability and elegance.
This art nude collection is a meditation on impermanence, intimacy, and the contrast of beauty against our mortality. Each image is a conversation between softness and stone, between the warmth of skin and the cold of marble, between life and the inevitable.
Graveyard Girls with 100+ pages!
This is more than a book of photographs—it’s an exploration of beauty in its most haunting form. Printed on premium paper, Graveyard Girls will be a carefully crafted collector’s edition for those who appreciate the sensual, the intimate, and the enduring. I’m excited to share it with you.
There is nothing like seeing the images in a physical print book. Select the collectible hardcover book printed on 8.5" x 11" archival paper for fantastic tonal range and contrast. The book, presented in black and white, has more than 100 pages, filled with art nudes.
The Autographed Hardback Edition: a one-of-a-kind collector's item signed by Austin Martini.
BTS video: behind the scenes highlights from my work with these women. I hope to show a glimpse into how these images are created and some of the interactions between the model and me. I think the BTS video adds dimensionality to the book that enhances the overall experience of the viewer. The BTS video is in color.
Signed Archival Book + 3Prints: You'll choose from 21+ different images and receive three (3) beautiful 8 x 10-inch archival prints (dated & signed). A preview of images to select from will be delivered digitally to you at the campaign close. It's a preview of images only for you at this pledge level.
Polaroids are available with very limited availability. Available as an add-on they are truly a one-of-a-kind collector's item for the connoisseur of fine art. Many are signed by the model. You get to choose the model for your Polaroid. All Polaroids are in color.
Every Polaroid is one-of-a-kind
The Bonus set features another 100+ unique images that couldn't fit into the final book. I select images from literally hundreds of photos, so be assured that these are the top images that I'm so excited to share with you.
Presented in black and white on premium archival paper, this is a book for those drawn to the shadowed edges of beauty—where the feminine form glows quietly against stone and moss, and every pose whispers of time, memory, and the stories we leave behind.
My art is a delicate balance between revealing a woman's sensuality and maintaining the utmost respect for her as an individual. I firmly believe that the beauty and power of a model can be admired without crossing into the territory of objectification or vulgarity. A modeling session is a collaborative partnership where the model's interpretation and input are encouraged and valued.
