Pure Yoga

Peter Hegre, born in 1969, is a famous Norwegian photographer and director. He studied at the Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara/USA. From 1991, he assisted Richard Avedon, the most renowned photographer of the 20th century, in New York. Hegre became famous through his risqué, technically demanding, puristic nude photos, which aim for simplicity and clarity. Together with his wife, the model Luba Shumeyko, he publishes the magazine ‘New Nude’. Luba, who also works as a yoga teacher, also posed as a model for ‘Pure Yoga’.
