Edmund Leja (U.S. photographer).
Edmund Leja, also known as Ed Leja (1919-2002) started in Detroit, in the mid 40's and mainly after 45 his first attempts as "semi-pro" photographer. He moved to California in 52 and increased his activity in photography and began hiring models on weekends to shoot on location and in and around his home. For his artistic figure work, Leja often preferred the great outdoors, just like one of his colleagues, Andre de Dienes. Based in West Hollywood and Studio City, at the heart of the early Southern California nude photography industry, de Dienes and Leja shared several model contacts. They both photographed two-time Playmate of the Month Diane Webber (Miss May 1955 and Miss February 1956), Collette Berne (Playboy cover model, July 1960), as well as Sue Snow and Tammy Saunders. Leja discovered and photographed three Playmates for Playboy magazine (one of these Playmates, Donna Michelle, had actually been discovered by one of Leja's daughters). He photographed Teddi Smith, Miss July 1960, Donna Michelle, Miss December 1963 (and 1964's Playmate of the Year), and Lori Winston, Miss June 1964. A leading pioneer in the fields of glamour, pin-ups, nudes and erotica, Edmund Leja photographed over 200 models between the 1940s and the early 1980s. His body of work encompasses more than 100,000 images. This thread is dedicated to his work. But pics of models with their own thread have to be posted on the respective threads.

If this was shot in 1950 then it was a very racy shoot
I would put it as late 60's or early 70's

Joszka, how did you gain access to Ed's photo files? Just wondering because you might also have many of the photo sets that I did for him for the magazines. Sylvia Hand was my wife. 1964 American Sunbathing Association queen for 1964.

I simply was a member of their site for a month or 2. And I'll try to share all I have gleaned there.
About Sylvia Hand, I already posted on her thread all what I had.

Hmmm, I wonder who has access to his photo files now. I left nude photography full time and got into car and motorcycle magazines around 1970. I was the staff photographer of ROAD TEST MAGAZINE, CYCLEGUIDE and some others.
I was going to use Ed for the magazine layout of CUSTOM CHOPPER Magazine of which I founded and was the editor. You don't mention it but Ed was a great layout artist for magazines and did many of his own nudist magazines. Ed wanted too much money for the motorcycle magazine so the publisher (Motorsports Publications) went with another guy. That was my last contact with Ed as we were now in different fields. |
