Ebony sculpture. Black jewel. Black is beautiful.

THESE WORDS jump inevitably into the mind when you gaze at Naomi, a rare discovery from Petter Hegre's expedition to Cape Town. Like her magnificent namesake, the British born model Naomi Campbell, our very own Naomi has long legs and keeps her sublime figure in shape working as a dancer and attending dance classes. She is naturally joyful and this radiates like the hot sun of her native South Africa through her incredible smile.

Due to Petter Hegre's usual traveling destinations there aren't many black models featured on Hegre-Archives and Naomi is the ideal candidate to tilt the balance. She is 19 years old, 172 cm, 46 kg and with divinely carved features one has to say her very best feature is her butt.

"One of the best butts I have ever photographed," commented Hegre, and he's something of an expert in the field.
