Playboy
Dream Girl
Solomia Maievska came into my life in a particular way. It all started when Katzi from Playboy Germany mentioned her. She told me that Solomia had auditioned for Playmate of the month. Katzi showed me some of her photos, and I got super curious. So, I checked her out on social media and started chatting with her on Instagram, and lo and behold, about a month later, we found ourselves doing a photoshoot together!
We did this photoshoot on October 12, 2022. It wasn’t quite summer anymore, and the weather wasn’t ideal for outdoor shoots. It was a bit chilly, so I thought, why not find a cool house with big glass windows and an infinity pool looking out over the ocean? That way, we could take photos both inside and, if Mother Nature was feeling cooperative, outside too.
I hadn’t met Solomia Maievska before, and I knew it was going to be her first nude photoshoot. I was a bit nervous at first because I usually work with experienced nude models. But Solomia had this amazing look – slim with a large bust and her face: a mix of mischievous, sweet, and a little badass, kind of like Cara Delevingne. So, I took a chance on her, and I’m so glad I did!
Mia turned out to be a dream model for any photographer. You wouldn’t even guess it was her first time posing naked. We wrapped up the whole shooting in just 5 hours because we arrived at the location late, and in October, the sun sets early. As we worked, the vibe was just right. The chemistry between us was fantastic, and Mia’s enthusiasm was infectious. Despite the initial nervousness, her confidence grew, and we shared plenty of laughs throughout the shoot.
It was one of those unforgettable experiences that remind me why I love what I do. Creating beautiful art with an incredibly unique model like Mia was an absolute blast, and I can’t wait to do it all over again. It was a day full of creativity, laughter, and a genuine connection.

The temperature is rising in the south of Spain, thanks to Playboy Playmate Zuriñe Aspiunza‘s scorchingly hot figure. Originally from Bilbao, Zuriñe – or Zuri, as her friends call her – travels to a villa in the desert-like hills of Almería to spend the day basking in the sun.
On the set with the photographer Ana Dias, Zuriñe tells us that she’s thrilled to cross Playboy off her career goals. “I am a bold, strong, and independent person. And I feel free and fulfilled when I pose nude,” she shares. “I want to encourage women to show their bodies and feel sexy doing it. And more importantly, to do what they want without having to justify themselves.”
A hardworking woman, Zuriñe has put in the hours to get to where she is today and hopes to feed her creativity through clothing design in the future. “Career ambitions? I would like to continue traveling and working as a model,” says Zuri, “but my dream is to create my own brand of lingerie.” For Zuriñe, small joys are what life is all about. “What makes me happy? The little things,” she smiles, “[like] being with my family and friends.” Zuriñe also stresses how important alone time is, which she often spends in nature. “I love adventures! I adore all outdoor sports, especially those related to the sea, [like] surfing.”
Enjoy the hot sun with the flawless Zuri Aspiunza as Miss July 2022 for Playboy Czech Republic.
