"I don't want to make money, I just want to be wonderful," Marilyn Monroe once averred. International model and sex symbol Magdalena Frackowiak channels her inner Marilyn in this sensuous photo spread for the May 2013 issue of Vogue Paris. Staged by renowned Italian photographer Giampaolo Sgura, Magdalena sizzles in blonde, her naked curves adorned only by accents of jewels against pristine white sheets.   

LA and NYC-based fashion photographer Kesler Tran trains his experienced lens on alluring model Lara in this exclusive nostalgia-tinged photo shoot for TREATS! Magazine. Although Trans began his career shooting digital images, he has become part of a growing wave of young photographers who embrace analog photography for all its subtle and visually engaging imperfections.

Former Navy photographer and Florida-based Aaron Ansarov's photographs are not digitally edited abstract mirrored photography but actual photographs of Portuguese Man O' War. Our minds are blown...

Caroline Mackintosh captures the essence of underwater sensuality in this seductive, submerged shoot entitled 'Thigh Deep'. Both chilling and beautiful, Caroline's shots are filled with fluid, otherworldly movement. Love these.   

I can't think of many things that are sexier or more intriguing than three nude babes, in a casual and playful setting, doing what they do best. Combine that with the talents of an equally casual photographer and you're making magic. This set of black and white, stills and poloroids from Giovanni Lipari captures this intimacy perfectly in his series, The Death of Youth.  

We are really enjoying the photographs of New Jersey-based photographer Robin Schwartz this morning. Schwartz, as you probably gathered from her photos, is an animal person and her daughter has been the subject of her body of work stretching over eleven years. Schwartz is a professor of photography at William Paterson University.   

Erica McTurk is a photographer, sometimes an illustrator, rarely a weaver, often a vintage clothing shopper, lover of siamese cats, and obsessor of pink lipsticks. 'I am inspired by fashion, women, warm weather, sex and gender. My primary interest is in photography, but I enjoy my side projects. I am 22 years old and a recent graduate from the School of Art & Design at the University of Michigan.'

Photographer Ruben Brulat has traveled via land only, through Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Japan and Mongolia for his latest series entitled Paths. "The bodies of people become friends, performing - not without difficulties - leaving wounds, marks, and souvenirs from a time before heading towards different paths, (after sharing one for a while). The Bodies of these people become a part of the accidental and dramatic landscapes, like the trees, the rocks or the black sands of gunung bromo." 

We are excited and can't wait to see this new feature-length documentary by Cheryl Dunn that chronicles pioneering photographers making their mark on the streets of New York. From Magnum veteran's Bruce Davidson (featured in our June issue) and Elliot Erwitt to Ricky Powell (also in our June issue), Boogie and Jamel Shabazz, "Everybody Street" illuminates the lives and work of New York’s iconic street photographers and the incomparable city that has inspired them for decades.

This past weekend we stopped by HVW8 Art for the private reception for “15 Years Of Gonz and Adidas,” a photo exhibition celebrating Mark Gonzales’ 15 years with the adidas Skateboarding family. As you may know, the man they lovingly call the "Gonz" has been a good friend of the Juxtapoz, Thrasher, and High Speed family for years, and we are so happy to see this show come to fruition. Photos and more after the jump…
