Australian-born fashion and celebrity photographer Russell James will reportedly release a book titled "Angels" featuring some of the prettiest and sexiest supermodels. These models have stripped naked for a raunchy photo shoot for James' 304-page book.

James has been sharing snaps from his latest book on his Instagram account. The book features totally nude black-and-white shots of Victoria's Secret Angels Gisele Bundchen, Alessandra Ambrosio, Adriana Lima, Sara Sampaio, Doutzen Kroes, Lily Aldridge, and Candice Swanepoel. In addition, Sports Illustrated model Brooklyn Decker has also posed naked for the book. Other celebrities like reality TV star and model Kendall Jenner as well as singer Rihanna are also included in the raunchy book.

In an interview with Fashion Gone Rouge, James said that he was unsure if his latest and fifth book "Angels" would really come to a realisation because he was apprehensive that the models he would ask to pose for him would not give in to his request. He said that he felt exuberant and humbled when the models agreed to work with him. James was truly appreciative of the trust they gave him. He said that the book was a tribute to the female form. "I hope people see images that are sensual, provocative, empowering to women, and that show my love for light, shape, and form," James told FGR.

According to James, he wanted her models to feel "comfortable and not vulnerable" all throughout the photo shoot. He didn't want her subjects to feel sexually exploited just because they dared to express themselves by posing nude. James said that he wanted his models to feel proud for doing the shoot 10 years from now.

James has been known for his amazing works for Victoria's Secret. He also worked for leading fashion journals such as Vogue, Marie Claire, GQ, and Sports Illustrated. James also did projects for Rolex, Evian, and Revlon. Some of the celebrities he had previously worked with include Scarlett Johansson, President Bill Clinton, Faith Hill, Sir Richard Branson, The Black Eyed Peas, and Halle Berry.

James' book "Angels" will be released on October 15. For more of his amazing photography, visit Russelljames.com.
