Warm up with your favorite international Playmate, Kitrysha, in this captivating photoshoot as Miss October 2023 for Playboy Czech Republic. Located in a beautiful villa in Portugal, Kitrysha posed under the scorching sun for the photographer Ana Dias. “It was a pleasure shooting, especially in the pool filled with colorful inflatables; it was incredibly fun!” she begins. “Working with Ana is always a stunning experience. She has her own unique style, and I admire how every shot she captures is consistently gorgeous.”
At the age of 26, Kitrysha has made a significant name for herself in the modeling industry. Besides appearing in various magazines, she holds the prestigious title of a three-time international Playmate, having represented Playboy in the Netherlands, Mexico, and now the Czech Republic. “I’m very glad to be a part of Playboy. For me, Playboy is fun, exciting, and refreshing! ! Every time I hear the word ‘Playboy,’ it’s like a delightful mix of something sweet and spicy,” she shares.
In addition to her modeling career, Kitrysha can be found creating art for her social platforms, traveling, or enjoying leisure time at home while watching movies or caring for her beloved cats and dogs. “When I was a kid, I thought I would become a kindergarten teacher. After high school, I wanted to become a flight attendant. I never thought I would be a model since I’m actually very shy, and I thought I was too short.” However, her journey has proven otherwise.

Say hello to Alina Boyko, the stunning Playmate and cover girl for the August issue of Playboy Netherlands. And thank God it’s summer, because Alina is the kind of girl that would make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain. In this set with photographer Ana Dias, she feels at home, with the sun glowing on her skin, her feet in the sugary sand and the Stars and Stripes waving in the air. When she’s not modeling, you can find Alina hiking, travelling around the world or binge watching ‘Rick and Morty’ over and over again.
After seeing her shoot for the first time on the pages of Playboy, Alina was stoked. “This is the most beautiful photoshoot I have ever done!” she said. You will be stoked too, when you fall under Alina Boyko’s spell, right here!

Rien Ne Va Plus
Ever since I started shooting for Playboy, I’ve had this itch to photograph a classic Bunny in the official Playboy costume. I’d been talking to Katzi Stadler, the pictorial director of German Playboy, about this for a while, and she generously offered to loan me a Bunny outfit and the necessary accessories. All I had to do was give her a shout, and she’d ship it my way.
I was just waiting for the right moment with the right model to bring this vision to life. My aim was to pay homage to the swinging ’60s with a photoshoot inspired by the old-school Playboy clubs from that era. For that, I needed a model who had that whole vibe going on, and a place that oozed glamour and timeless charm.
That’s where Solomia Maievska came into the picture. She was the model I had in mind, with her beautiful and generous bust, short hair, those big, mesmerizing eyes, and a genuine, childlike smile. Her timeless beauty made her the perfect fit to be my Bunny!
As for the location, nothing screamed ’60s glamour like a casino: the dazzling lights, the slot machines, the roulette wheels, and the classic allure reminiscent of Ian Fleming’s Bond world. It also had a nostalgic touch of old Playboy Clubs I aimed to capture.
Of course, this kind of shoot could only happen at the fabulous Casino Lisboa. This place holds a special spot in my heart since it’s where I had my first major photography exhibition, “Ana Dias – Playboy World.”
So, on July 11, 2023, we were all set: the model, my crew, and myself, working together to bring this project to life.
Here’s an interesting tidbit about shooting in a casino that is obvious but we usually don’t think about—casinos are pretty much always open. To get a shoot in there, we had a very narrow window of opportunity, limited to the early morning hours. Time was ticking!
We had to pull out all the stops to stay awake. Figueiredo and Gomes traveled all the way from up north at 2:00 a.m. Raquel didn’t even get to hit the sack, coming straight from another job. As for me, Gonçalo, Jaime and Solomia, we managed to grab a tad more sleep, but not by much.
Despite the race against the clock, we pulled off shots on two different casino floors and even squeezed in some studio shots, which ended up on the cover of the December issue of Playboy Germany.
