Jan Scholz is a lucky man for being able to pose as a photographer to capture these shots. The models in these peaceful photographs are all shot on [beds](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-bed-installation) in a somewhat dreamy yet seductive manner.

Starting in [portrait and fashion photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-powered-portrait-studio), it seems as though Jan Scholz has combined his two talents in this collection of peaceful photography.

**Implications** - Most photo shoots depict heavily made-up models in extravagant settings, which can be a little too much for viewers. By taking a more [naturalistic approach](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anew-project) like Scholz has, photographers ensure that audiences can relate to the image more due to its natural aesthetic. With this in mind, a "less is more" approach would be effective for businesses who wish to establish themselves as the "every-man" that appeals to just about everybody.
