Cycladic Summer – Barbarita Homs by Max Libertine

Model Barbarita Homs appears in a swimwear photography editorial by Max Libertine, photographed aboard a sailing yacht near the Cycladic island of Paros in Greece.

Created in a relaxed atmosphere of sailing, swimming and island life, the series evolved into a semi-nude editorial shaped by natural light, ocean air and the easy intimacy of a summer day in the Cyclades.

Cycladic Summer was photographed near the island of Paros in Greece aboard a Beneteau sailing yacht. Max Libertine and model Barbarita Homs had originally met for a swimwear client shoot before deciding to capture the relaxed atmosphere of the day as a personal editorial.

Sailing, swimming, tanning and the ocean breeze became part of the story, resulting in an intimate semi-nude series built around natural light, spontaneity and the freedom of summer in the Greek islands.

Max Libertine is a swimwear, lingerie and lifestyle photographer based in Dresden, Germany. His artistic work explores travel, self-discovery, self-awareness and sensuality.

Working primarily with available light and small, trusted crews, he aims to create intimate and authentic images focused on strong, independent and confident women, while promoting natural body representation and avoiding unrealistic digital alteration.
