Dear Petter I just read your story, after I logged into your actual BR trip story. You where really lucky. I am happy though, that you came back to Brazil. Brazilians ARE warm and nice people to hang around with. However the social 'disequilibrium" makes it a really dificult and dangerous country too. Nice shoots on Praia Mole. I lived in Floripa for 6 month. I would have liked to see some café com leite girls though :-). yours Pierre Psi I am swiss...but live for 9 years here in Brazil.

Hi Peter I´m from Brazil and I get very sad to what happened to you here. It´s very embrassing for us people from here. I just would like to tell you hat you were very unlucky , violence existis here as in a lot of parts of the world , i live here for 30 years and never got robbed or passed for a moment like yours , in the othe side a very similar situation happened to me in Spain once and in NYC.Hope you re-think about come here again.Somebody that know what you were doing in Brazil is involved in this. I´m sure. It was not casual. Sorry my poor english.

The most beautifuls girls in the world

You Mr. Petter is the best and beautiful girls, my congratulations John.

the real name of beach is Cumbuco and not Cumbuka... ;) nice pics!!!

Brazil has oil, natural resources and beautiful women. All are exploited by the wealthy nations of the world with the connivance if successive Brazilian governments. It means that in Brazil, the rich grow richer and the poor in this wealthy land remain locked forever in dire dreadful poverty. This is the message from one Rodrigo, who has written to Hegre-Archives in Portuguese for us to tell his tale to the world. We have translated and edited his message, but these are Rodrigo's words and thoughts, and are not necessarily that of Hegre-Archives. "Brazil is a land run by bandits and threatened by outlaws. Most of South and Central America suffers the same fate. While the world has grown richer, the peoples of this continent remain poor. They remain poor because they lack information, news, a connection to the outside world. They have been kept by their governments without sociological, cultural, historical and economic answers to questions they lack the education to ask. "Brazil is the largest of South America's countries and perhaps has the most internal problems. Rio De Janeiro, my city, has the highest level of violence, despite the fact that Brazilians are in truth good natured and friendly people. Brazilians inspire admiration from all the peoples of the world. Our capacity for optimism is well known and we face the worse moments with fatalism and courage. There is cordiality between Christians and Moslems, and people from every nation, faith and colour: black, white and yellow, have found welcome in Brazil. "The great violence that exists, Petter, is the violence of poverty and misery. There are two direct two reasons for this. The first is that 'developed' nations have constantly been allowed to 'steal' the land, first the European settlers, and later by their American brothers from the north. They come to Brazil in search of wealth and take that wealth back with them. In the beginning, they created systems whereby they could simply steal the patrimony. Now, it is done in a more sophisticated way, imposing conditions for commercial relationships and invading the territory with its mega companies and multinationals. The second reason is that we have a corrupt government and a powerful elite that allows this to happen. But I believe this is not true to the Brazilian nature and the corruption has been caused by external interests: and I say one more time, by 'the developed' peoples. "Despite this, Brazilians have never tried to dominate others. We have never taken possession of the wealth of other lands. We have never invaded another country. We have never practiced genocide. We have never initiated wars that killed innocents for expansion or domination. Our intellectual and technological elite have never had any interest in manufacturing atomic bombs. We do not burn our Joana D'Arc in the main square, nor do we divide the Middle East to steal its oil. "This is my country and I feel it important to tell of these things to the world. The people of my country are without a voice and if you will translate my text and can use it to help the poor people of my country and the poor people in every corner of the world, you will have done a good turn. "To be born in a poor country is to be discriminated against every day just for being born poor. To be poor is to be cursed." Good luck. Rodrigo

next time go to Santa Catarina State where the most beatifull brazilian girls living

Sensacional! Amei as fotos!! Petter é o REI.. love love love

Peter, I´m glad you´re ok. What happened to you was just bad luck. It could happened in Brazil, in Europe, Asia, Africa or in the USA. Maybe you´ve got to be more cautious about SOME places and about the people you meet in all the places. I sincerely hope you´ll come back to Brazil some day, maybe at the south at summer (where are the most beautiful brazilians), ok?

You came to the best country, but to the wrong place! Come back again... But to Sao Paulo (south of Brazil) People here are europeans descendent, like me... abraços Armando

As you told, you have to be more discreet... in any place you go, always will have a badguy looking for some "easy money"... so, the only thing you have to do, is to give more attention anywhere you go... either in house, either in the street.. to be more safe, valuable things must be hidden.. ;) i never passed anything like this, and i hope to dont happen.. but, if it never happened to me, is cause i'm careful at this point =)

I live in the states and there are bad places here to. But if you need a guide to stay safe thats just nuts.I would never go some where you need lots of friends, Armed guards, Bulletproof vests, or any thing like that. I would not go back either.

You must know southern brasil. The capital of Santa Catarina State, Florianópolis, is the city that has the most beautiful girls of world! Gisele Bündchen (the most famous top model)comes from the south of Brasil(State of Rio Grande do Sul). Florianópolis is an Island with 100 wonderful beaches,sun and a lot of blondie girls with blue eyes. It's really the paradise! My phone number is (48)99625999

Petter, I've been to brazil countless times, and nothing ever happened. when i went to the embassy they recommend me Natal instead of Fortaleza, and I must say they were true. It's the best place in the world! I'm sorry for what happened to you, but I think that ONE incident (no matter how bad it could be) cannot make you decide not to go to a place forever. I think Jircocoara, for example, would lead you to a completely differnt point of view... Just my 2¢ on the subject...

i told ya'! the good bizniz here is go to rio to see the big round asses culture and to the south, to florianopolis or porto alegre, to see the italian and german colonization mix products. besides of course the natural beauties of beaches like fernando de noronha island, known as one of the top 5 most beatiful beaches in the world. i'm sorry for what happened to you but this country really is one of the best! far away.

I never had any problem in Brazil - ever! I LOVE BRAZIL !!!!!!!!!! Next time you decide to visit Brazil - let me show you around Sao Paulo, Curitiba and Porto Alegre (All Southern States - much safer, very civilized). The girls are not only divine. They are very sweet, open-hearted and friendly. All my love to them. Stuff London, Stuff England.I am moving to Brazil - hopefully for good. A note about "violence". I feel safer in Sao Paulo Brazil than in London. Just follow a few rules and you should be OK. Never go anywhere in the world without a firm base of native friends. Never dress smart and walk in areas that you are not sure are safe - specially with a Nikon hanging around your neck. My offer is there - if you decide to visit Brazil and I happen to be there too, we will be well looked after - I guarantee. My details should be somewhere in your database (hg27) Hope then after that, you will have a completely better experience and a different perspective of my beautiful and magical Brazil. PS: I know a lot of girls and professional/legal agencies (they do TV casting usually) that have no qualms about nudity.

Only Beautiful Girls ;)

my friend and i were almost robbed one night, but the guy fled, and the next nite after we left he broke into the condo next door and blasted the guy with five shots......so i can relate in some way to the terror you must have experienced be safe!

yes, i live in brazil and it sux bad!

I saw the photos about Yôga with Anahí Flores,she was very beautiful. I hope you came more times to Brazil to take more photos with she. Now, she can show the World the power of Swásthya Yôga. Congratulations !!!

Hi, Petter, I love the photos about Yôga with Anahí Flores. She is very beautiful and Fortaleza is a beautiful city. You know woh to mix the two things. Congratulations and I want to see more and more photos about Yôga in your site

Whem I saw , I was tooched by the beaulty and ,the power of the expression , If I could translate in words my feelings,I Would Saw Swásthya.

A Anahí é nosso modelo de yôginí, e nossa inspiração no Brasil dentro do Swásthya Yôga... ... um privilégio vê-la crescendo, estamos muito felizes e queremos mais fotos. Cibs.

Hi Petter, I loved all the pictures, specially about Anahi Flores, yôga teacher from Brazil. Congratulations. Those pictures are full of life,happy,love and yôga. I hope see more pictures as soon as possible. Thanks for this beautifull time. Gisele Setti

Gostei das fotos de Yoga mas gostaria de saber que tipo é. Obrigado

Hey, guys Peter is not Portuguese he's Norwegian and his wife, the beautiful Luba, is from Lithuania. His comments are actually pretty reasonable for someone not used to the "Civil War" that happens everyday in Brazil. We don't need your ingnorance and misunderstandings. So, please, CALA A BOCA e CAI FORA! Long Life Peter and Luba!

Hello there, Well I am photogrpher in Pakistan and there are lot of girls who really can pose nude here but are ashamed mostly and there are not proper studios or photographer set ups. This is a lucrative market for u guys and if u can help me I can have excellent rare looking and attractive nude girls pose for u guys but I need some help in terms of financial or u can visit here and along with me do something!! please reply!!

hi, Peter! Just one advice: In northern Brazil, there are pretty girls, but they're are not, almost never, caucasian or slavs, like Luba - mostely part portuguese, black and indian - a great mix, i guess. In Rio, where i live, you can find ALL KINDS of girls. I think Rio would be a perfect place to find what you want. In southern Brazil, there are lots of german and italian descendents. Many, many blond marvelous girls. A final word: there are medium classes girls in Brazil. Be sure of that. You just have to go to right place - you'll really need a native guide on next trip.

I had been planning a trip to Rio. Your story is quite an eye opener, thank God you and your friend got out with only a few memories. I enjoy your work and hope you will be more careful in all your endeavers.

Why do you have to go to Brazil to photograph beautiful girls. They are on your doorstep man! Stavanger, Bergen and that area have many beautiful young girls ready to be photogrpahed naked. So why go elsewhere? Perhaps it's because of the local politics and the facist police in Norway?

From (another!) Brazilian, I must say I truly feel like shit reading this, man. I'm really sorry. We're definately not all like that...but in the wrong place/wrong time, you risk to go thru some terrible shit if you don't know the place around. Sorry, Petter. Keep up the exceptional work. Rodrigo

Wonderful photos girls in world. As fotos publicadas por vocês são maravilhosas. Continuem assim. ED São Paulo / Brazil

Erotic and yet so pure are the images of your travels. Absolute brilliance is the hand that can capture this while never constraining the images of these flowing beauties. WORK WELL DONE MY FRIEND. From the City of Angels, CA. Thank YOu. daniel - 2003-6-4-01-17

I do not consider myself as a beginner, with over 3 months of travelling every year for years, crusading the world searching for models, I have some experience. What happened in Brazil was a very unfortunate incident that it is difficult to prevent, but I could have made some better precautions. Next time I will be more careful. Petter

Just as you know, I am going to California at the end of this month. Luba and I are going to meet her twin sister Nadya and her husband Jeff in south Californina. I cant wait to go back to my old photo school in Santa Barbare. I just hope it is more safe then Brazil...

Hi Petter... I hope you not get my message wrong. Sorry if you trip to my country was not good as you expected. Like you said, this is a wild and hot country. Do not let what happend to you, affect your judgement over South America, and even others countrys. My girlfriend travel to Italy, to a 2 year course on fashion design, and guess what, she suffer the same of you: two months living in Prado, a 50.000 town on north of Italy, and one day, bang! She had been mugged. But I don´t think Europe is the "barbarian gates of hell", based on that incident :-))), In fact, it´s a nice continent with beautifull countrys. And yes, brazilian woman needs photos like you do. Take care

Well, somehow you must have shown too obviously your equipment. I am travelling (for business) quite frequently also to South America, but I never got any problems, even not in Argentina during the last 15 months where the people had really nothing to bite. One colleague lost his notebook, but that was his fault, leaving it plainly visible in the back of the car. Well, leaving the cars for two hours, and of course the notebook was gone. I do not know how much equipment you are using, but the less the better. Okay, my standard equipment is notebook and mobile phone - and not cameras. But some good notebook is even better to be sold than a camera. I hope you do not take that incident too hard - South America is still a marvellous continent, with great and friendly people. I never got such a relaxing holiday as the 5 days I spent in Patagonia (South of Argentina). One news article called it "the cry of silence". Of course, beautiful girls are there very rare, as there are rarely people at all. Perhaps this is one spot where you can relax and fill up the batteries again.

Hello Petter, the town probably never had such a brutal robbery before because they never had such a nice and easy target before. Please take some time before you say you won't visit Africa or South America anymore, that's like half the planet! You should very carefully visit Colombia sometime, ever heard of Sofia Vergara (supermodel)? She is Colombian, not to mention Shakira... so as you can see Colombia probably has a lot to offer you if you know where to look. I would try the tourist spots like Santa Marta. As for how to visit these types of places I think you must do ample research into crime statistics, be comfortable that you are in a secure place, yes with security guards if necessary and when there's none available BE ARMED and READY for the unexpected. Best of luck to you, your work and your models are the truly the best around...

hi petter...just saw to my utter surprise that there was day seven of your trip....yes you had to take this girl for a quick session..she is really hot and sweet....so keep your spirit...regards gerd

Hello Petter. I have read a part of your report and all the preceeding (below) messages. I see many people here are having a chance to express their bigotry (either agains the whole country, or agains the northern region of the country), which is very sad. I can't say much because this kind of experience is really traumatic (I've been through something similar miself), and it isn't the kind of welcome card anyone expects. All I can say is I hope you recover soon. Regards.

Petter, Wow, what a story? First, congratulations on having a chance to tell your story. Your situation could have had a worst ending, glad to hear you and your friend are now safe. It's interesting, you mention in your article about a new birthday. There is definitely some truth to that. You strike me as a guy who will take a negative experience and turn it into a positive, sounds like you already have...

Sorry you had a situation like that just here. I'm a Brazilian, and I can only say this: Never, ever, passed my mind the most remote thinking to go to north. I live in Sao Paulo, and, if I have to travel inside the country, I just go south (Santa Catarina, Parana). Try this sometime, it likes German, the people is wonderful, fantastic beaches and girls. The most well-known city of the country is Rio de Janeiro, which has a crime rate higher than New York. I am not mad to get there. North, never. South, that's o.k. But I still prefer Australia...

The police said they had never had such a brutal robbery in Cumbuco before and that it was one of the more safe areas in the whole state... well I do not know what to belive. I just know that I will not ever travel into high risk areas again without bodyguards.

Petter, Unfortunately that thing happened to you. I'm Brazilian and believe or not, I'm from Fortaleza! Brazil is really a bealtiful place and good too, but 1 thing you did so wrong: you went there alone! Brazil isn't like USA or Europe coutry, like you said, it's a poor country, and the police have many BIG problems to care every day. It could sound ridiculous, but how can you go to a third world country caring a laptop that worth a really good new car in Brazil without a person who knows how Brazil works well? YES YOU HAVE TO GO THERE AGAIN! Before you think I'm just talking bullshit, I know how to really help you!!! You went to a good City in Brazil (my city), but to a wrong place to find the really beautiful Brazilian girls that everybody talk about! If you want to find gorgeous girls, the right place is Rio de Janeiro, Salvador and South Cities: Rio de Janeiro - Women are generally white, dark hair, tall and work out a lot! Salvador - many black people, big ass and they are hot! South - the people are like the one that your have in your web site, because there were German and Italian colonized. Advices: As a Brazilian Art Director, I know people from every part of brazil that can help you, maybe without charge you. They know where you should go, where not, and that could avoid many situations like that one you saw. Believe me, Brazil is one the best places of the world, but you have to wear a helmet first! Some brazilians websites that shows the woman that you liking for... Www.thegirl.com.br Www.morango.com.br Www.revistatrip.com.br If you have any question, or simple wants to send me fuck myself, tell me... :) Carlos (by the way, I live in Florida - USA)

HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those bastards!!! I am happy to hear that you are safe and sound...but what a NIGHTMARE!!!!! That does seem to be a real problem with 3rd world/emerging countries...desperation and envy...thank God you didn't have your wife/family/females with you...who KNOWS what would have happened then!! You DO have an angel......! Anyhow, welcome back again, safe and sound

Hi guys, thanks for all the support and tips. It is easy now to say that I could have planned my trip differently, but done is done and I am just happy I´m safe back in Portugal. Now I start preparing the series from Brasil, and I can assure you it is hot stuff. Luckily the basterds did not get hold of my computer with all the images in it! Check out tomorrow for the first Brazilian photo update.

It was very unfortunately that such nice trip was cut short by this brutal robbery. Being a big admirer of your work and a Brazilian citizen, I'm glad that you and your friend are safe. I know by own experiences how these horrible events leave deep emotional marks. The main reason this things happens is the brutal gap between riches and poor, just like you had noticed before. Brazilian natural beauties and our nice people are the main victims of the violence and impunity that terrifies our country. At the same time there’re also violence and greed all over (BTW Kym I had part of my video gear stolen in the beautiful Australia twice) and I’d worst experiences outside Brazil than on my own country. Your reactions were perfect and although I think you are still shaken by what happened your comments were honest and reasonable. Sometimes the beauties and the beasties live too close together. Keep the good work and take care.

Petter, So glad you're ok. I love your pics and mag! I had 2 similar experiences except that I was at the wrong end of a gun in both cases. Obviously, I got out alive but it was extremely traumatic. It will take time but you will get over it for the most part eventually. There is no magic answer, unfortunately, only time. As far as the "turbans" I'm pretty sure that they were wearing them as a disguise, to throw off the authorities into making them think that they were Muslim. In all likelihood they were not Muslim at all and only did this to make people think they were to get the "heat" off of them. Third, someone was DEFINITELY tipped off and you can pretty much be sure that it was someone you knew there personally. I had a similar situation when one of my "friends" watched my house for a few days one time. When I came back, my place was almost empty, all of my cameras, electronics, music and other valuables gone and NO SIGN OF A BREAK-IN. Make sure you look long and hard at who you knew and talked to down there and be SURE you trust them if you ever go there again (sounds like you won't). I'm almost sure it was someone who knew you personally. Just my 2 cents. Glad you're safe. Take care and keep up the good work! Matt

I'm really sorry about 5 day...I'm a brazillian art director and sometimes we've work in dangerous locals. In that case we never stay alone, always with coast-guards. Sorry, it's our reality, we work hard and well, others prefer take our country down. Give us other chance, I'll help you, if wants,ok? Thanks

Hi Petter! As a Brazilian citizen I want to say that I know that so many people like me want to apologize you, but we're so glad that "nothing" happens with you. Keep working!!

Brazil sounds awful. Why not try another sunny part of the world without the poverty and violent gangsters...come to Australia. Come in Summer (Dec-Feb) and you'll find many sun kissed females from many nations represented here. They have all come here to feel safe. You should too. It's a beautiful country.

Jev!!! bra petter Håper(ser) du har det bra

Hi HRM, this girl is the maid of the house. She and the caretaker of the house lived near by and rushed over when they heard the police coming... and no, we never photographed her, but she was a cutie.

Who is the girl in the picture with Peter and the police? Did you get pictures of her?

Petter, Thank Heaven for your angel(s). I'm so glad you made it through ok. You're awesome man!

Hi Petter, As you know, I had been meaning to e-mail you and Luba for some time. Here's the text of the e-mail I sent separately to you earlier today.... I’m a relatively recent member, and have been wanting to write to you for some time; and now, ironically, I’m writing this first e-mail in the wake of that dreadful episode. Although, Petter, your expressive powers in what is for you the foreign language of English are truly remarkable, words can’t really describe what you went through. The main thing is, of course, that you and Peter are OK, and we can all be thankful for it. But it is so terribly, terribly sad that something like that should happen to someone whose aim in life is to spread the message of beauty, love, and art. Personally, your message is all the more expressive and poignant in that, although I’m an American and live in the US, I spend a lot of time in Cape Town. And thus your pictures of the transcendently lovely Luba and Nadya in places that I know so well are especially unforgettable to me. I’m so familiar with Clifton, Bantry Bay, Camps Bay, the Twelve Apostles; and I’ve even driven past Ronnie’s Sex Shop in the Little Karoo, in the middle of nowhere, so I got a laugh out of your picture of it! Sadly, though, as you know, South Africa is riddled with the same sort of mindless crime and violence that you encountered in Brazil. I do hope that you’ll go back to South Africa some day, taking the necessary precautions that I’ve become only too familiar with during my recent visits. In writing to you for the first time, I had wanted just to say that I have been quite overwhelmed by you both: Petter is obviously one of the great photographers of our time, and Luba is obviously a woman who combines incredible beauty with exceptional human qualities and remarkable abilities as a photographer in her own right. So you’re an unbeatable team, and I give thanks that Petter is okay! And please know that what you’re doing is important: In a time that’s riddled with viciousness and ugliness of the kind you’ve so directly encountered, your work represents an affirmation of life and beauty. In dark times like these, that’s very important indeed. Finally, a special note of praise for your series on Vika. Although it sounds like a cliché, she is the most beautiful model I have ever seen. She combines that beauty with a refreshing expressiveness which suggests that she is just a little mischievous and also quite intelligent. And in her photos she is clearly enjoying herself. Her pictures are quite unforgettable, and I hope you’ll be able to photograph her again and again and again! So, again, many thanks for all that you both do, and I am both horrified by what happened in Brqazil and happy that you are all right. And I am very happy to be a member of your site. Best wishes, David

Petter, These comments are probably a bit late and a bit superfluous. I had problems initially in accessing the site Travel Section on my computer, but that problem is now solved, thanks to Oyvind helpful suggestions. What a shattering experience (literally!) you have been through in Brazil. When I first started to read your report of the bandit attack, I thought it might be the action of some "righteous sect" who were objecting to the type of work you were doing in their country. But fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on one's outlook) that was not the case, and it now appears to be a case of pure robbery. Thank goodnes neithe you nor Peter were seriously hurt. The response of each of you was terrific. One hates to even think of the possible ultimate sacrifice! - but it could have happened. This must really make it necessary to rethink future travel plans, as you have commented. It has certainly put me off ever visiting South America, which was one of the major continents on my "yet yo visit" list. But thanks to God you are safe and not hurt. And able to return to your beloved Luba. We love you all. Please take good care for the future together, and for continuation of your fine work. Roger.

Petter, we are very happy to hear hear that you and Peter are alright after that ordeal. I have been exposed to quite a bit of theft and violence travelling over the years (and lost more than a couple of cameras) and can relate to the stress I'm certain you're feeling right now. The way you share your life with us on this site makes my wife and I feel as if we know you in some way and we're certainly glad you'll be around for us to get to know better! Take care and hurry home to your beautiful wife! S!

I agree with Mark--Peter Fischer,s quick thinking might have saved a lot more than some expensive equipment. He deserves a medal. I,m impressed that you had the composure to write this report. I,m happy everyone is safe, and I hope no one here has to face this kind of danger ever again.

Hi my dear viewers. I have opened this little discussion forum to let you in on what happened here in Brazil. Feel free to ask me any questions. I know brutal robbery and death staring in your face are not normal topics of discussion on an erotic site, but I want you to know that there is a personal story and a great human effort behind every photograph you see out there. Nothing comes for free and somtimes shit happens. I send my respect to all photographers pushing limits to capture that unique image... but remember, somtimes it is just not worth going all the way.

hi mark, I have no idea who tipped them of or why they knew the house so well. I had some photo sessions around the house, so I guess the jungle telegraph somehow reached the bastards. Police said that they had never had such a brutal and professional robbery in this town before... it was very traumatic.

Shit. Glad you,re all ok. Top marks to Peter Fischer for keeping his head. Any idea who might have tipped them off? How did they know the house so well? I got mugged in Brussels (of all places - I live in London and I,ve not been mugged here) about a year ago and I was looking over my shoulder for the rest of the time I was there. It made me really paranoid. Just try not to let it scare you. Cheers and take care, Mark.

Amei as fotus.
gostei demais.
super boas !

Peter. I like you work, that is why I am a member of your site. I am so sorry to read that you had such a terrible experience. Brazil is a young country with problems that were resolved in other older places like Europe and North America. We will get there one day, I hope. My wife and I were robbed in Barcelona, inside the Hotel breakfast lounge. You were a little naive to go around places where there are poor people with expensive outfits without at least 2 bodyguards. Beach houses nowadays are dangerous, fragile places to stay. But as many said here, Southern Brazil is a safer place and you will find European like Brazilian girls with Latin hearts (Italian and German blend) you will love to shoot. Good luck and all the best, Mario Williams
