"I love the human body but being naked wasn't something I'd enjoyed or embraced myself until doing this shoot. As soon as it was just me and the camera I got the experience of warmth and pure excitement and love for my body. What made the shoot fun and interesting was trying to beat the morning tradies to get nude shots on the public swing but, the winner would have to be shooting photos in the backyard looking pretty with my daisy when BAM - discovering I'm literally lying on a dead mouse, HOT! I really did love doing this shoot and am now happy to say that I'll get naked for the camera any day"

"I Shot Myself gave me an opportunity to look at myself in a way that was neither overtly sexual, nor self-conscious. I was able to overcome that self-consciousness and anxiety about my body, but not through a way that demanded or pressured me to be a conventional idea of sexy. I Shot Myself was a middle ground in expressing my femininity and sexuality in my own way - the creativity was my own, and the way I used my body was my own - it encouraged me to feel that the result was beautiful and acceptable. I Shot Myself has not resolved my personal anxieties about my body, or made me feel any different about myself in relation to the depiction of women in the media, but I created a portfolio that is a reflection of me, and the things I am comfortable with about my sexuality and my body. I loved the feeling that I got from it and I enjoyed doing it- being naked, creative, sexual, free. Shoot yourself some time...it's a great feeling."

"For this shoot I made sure I had plenty of time all to myself and could play around for a while. I always get turned on and comfortable when I'm reading so I thought that would be a fun way to get in the mood for the shoot and also show some of myself in an authentic environment. I also took a nice hot shower right before the shoot, so that's where the wet hair came from. The shoot was really relaxed and natural, just doing things I'd normally do - pretending the camera isn't there and bringing the viewer straight into my world. I had a lot of fun with it."

"This was terrifying at first, I've always had a difficult relationship with my body and nudity. For a long time I hated the idea of anyone seeing me naked and would use it to make myself feel bad. But once I got into the swing of it and realised no one really cranes their neck up from down at street level to see into your bedroom window it became fun. I love make up but I definitely feel less confident without it so I forced myself to do at least most of the photos bare faced. It was a nude shoot after all."

"I decided to write on me what my inadequate exes made me feel during the time I was with them. They were both highly insecure men who took it out on me - you know, that old chestnut. It was empowering to physically wash off those words, to put a physical act to the journey I have been through since breaking up with my last boyfriend who completely broke me. That's the only real explanation I need for my photos. The glitter was just because I love glitter."
