Altea//"IDGAF_2"
"I just keep looking for inspiration and I found all of these socks I got from Ali Express - cause I love socks, and I love expressing myself. I think socks is a quite discreet way of doing it. So I choose them and they say funny things like fuck off, or leave me alone, or play with me. My favourite says, don't follow me, I'm already lost. And I love them. I also have panties like, "ain't going to spank myself". It's quite funny..."

"I was thinking about all of the different ways I could photograph myself in a body positive way, rather than looking perfect and pristine like I normally try to appear in photos. I have a wrist tattoo which is featured in the folio that reads "imperfection is human" in my own handwriting. It was a sentiment that meant a lot to me at the time I wrote it in my journal, and that stands true today."

Catherine//"GrlPwr"
"Technically it is Autumn, but the sun was just divine and tasted of summer. I did this shoot in my bedroom and on my balcony, basking in the sun. My body felt warm and sensuous, whilst also feeling free and gentle. I adored this shoot and just felt so happy in my body, what a gift to myself. In the last year I've struggled with some health issues in my body, so doing this shoot felt like a return to my sacred beauty, with a new understanding of my body. I loved it."

Iris_T//"OutInTheOpen"
"Ishotmyself is something I've thought about doing for years but never had the courage to do. Recently, I've felt the need to be more confident in my body and myself. I shot a lot in my bedroom but I also took some shots out in my backyard, hiding behind trees, ha. It's crazy how good it feels to do this. I'm loving it. It feels amazing and terrifying to be out in the open, taking shots. But, slowly I am becoming more comfortable. I think probably everyone should try this at least once, even if you don't show anyone the pictures."

Victoria_G//"TheTwoVictorias"
"I focused on creating unusual shapes with my body, contracting into small spaces and expanding over furniture or against the wall. Whilst the overall aesthetic remained soft and femme, I aimed to inject a sense of strength and non-conformity by exploring odd angles and bold poses. More colour was also included in this shoot than last time - to convey confidence and variation. The active shots contrast with more passive, languid poses represent the duality of my self-perception and sexuality."

Ruby_G//"SpringThings"
"Hello and welcome to me! I took these photos in my home throughout this spring, on days when the sunlight inspired me. I enjoy photography, whether I'm photographing myself, friends, or lovely outdoor scenes. Capturing subtle contrasts and noticing varying types of light is meditative and pulls me into the present moment. This project was challenging for me, I wanted to capture a lot of my body in each shot and that was difficult to do while holding the camera. But I think I rose to the challenge and was able to capture my best features with some fun angles and mirror tricks."

Gabriella_M//"lemons2lemonade"
"I am typically the type of person to hide in the back of photos, this time I had the lens of the camera pointed directly at my naked body! This, I will say took me a hot minute to get used to. When the main mirror I would be using for the majority of the shoot smashed, instead of giving up (I was close) I tried to incorporate the reality of the broken mirror into the shoot. I think some of these photos came out a lot cooler than I was anticipating."

Zoe_G//"rote_lichter"
"Zuerst wollte ich mich auf eine kleine Reise zu einem verlassenen Ort machen um Spannung aufzubauen und dem ganzen einen Hauch von Abenteuer zu verleihen. Doch dann oberkam mich der Gedanke: Was wurde spannender sein als dein eigenes zu Hause? Der Ort wo du dich am wohlsten fahlst. Der Ort an dem du am verletzlichsten, am intimsten bist. All das laste mein momentaner Gedankensalat aus. Manchmal fehlt man sich doch wohler zu Hause als geselligkeit raus unter Leute zu messen. / My first thought was going to an adventurous also a little dangerous place to create some sort of tension. But then I thought what can be more exciting than your home? Your safe space where you are the most vulnerable and intimate. It is very much based on my chaos of emotions which sometimes makes me wanna stay in my space rather than socialising and putting myself out there."

Marina_G//"hola_guapa"
"Hola! Tome estas fotos en mi cuarto, cocina y bano. Tome las fotos justo despues de almorzar. Al tomar las fotos frente a la ventana, un grupo de personas que estaban caminando por la calle me vieron y me gritaron "Hola guapa!" Fue muy vergonzoso y a la vez divertido. Me encanta mi cuerpo, y tomar estas fotos subio mi autoestima aun mas :). / Hi! I took these pictures in my room, kitchen and bathroom. I shot it right after having lunch. When taking the pictures in front of the window, a group of people who were walking on the street saw me and called me "Hey pretty!" It was really awkward but fun at the same time. I love my body a lot, and taking these pics raised my self esteem even more :)."

Lina_R//"LekkerBezig"
"Ik ben Lina_R, 21, wonend in Belgien ik heb mijn 2de portfolio gemaakt voor I shot myself Voor mijn eerste reeks heb ik geen zo'n groot probleem gehad met mijn kitten, maar nu was hij wakker. Hij speelde constant met de spiegel! Hij liep er voor, rende er langs, sprong er op...wat een gekke ervaring was het deze keer! Haha. / My name is Lina_R, I'm 21 years old, I live in Belgium and I've made my second folio for I shot myself. The first time I didn't have a big struggle with my kitten, but this time he was awake. He was playing with my mirror constantly! Walking in front of it, running from side to side, jumping on it...such a crazy experience this time! Haha."

Lexi_M//"ready_for_it"
"Hi! Thanks for looking at my shoot :). I did this shoot in my bedroom. That's where I feel the most comfortable. I feel comfortable because most of the times I do have sex is in there. I can express myself and this is the result. I like to expose myself because I want to show that I'm feeling good in my body. While I was doing the shoot I was thinking about me having great sex. After I was done with the shoot, I felt great. I was so horny as well, so I obviously had a bit of fun with myself afterwards."

Charlie_F//"InMyElement"
"I just recently moved into a new apartment straight off the beach and it is such an oasis. Full walls of glass, mirrored door, palm trees in the background...how could I not shoot here? This isn't my first rodeo so everything went smoothly. In the past I have put a lot of effort into my environment, stringing up all sorts of objects for the shoot. This time I really relaxed it back and enjoyed it for what it was - a gal taking piccies. It felt much more organic, and I hope that you see more of me as a person than previously."

Iris_M//"vitamin_me"
"I have always seen the human body as art and so to create my own art with the beautiful body I have been given is truly a privilege. I did this shoot only days after moving into a new house where I felt at home pretty much straight away! The sun on my skin was most delicious while taking these photos. I felt so incredibly warm and comfortable as my natural self. Confident, sexy, silly, and carefree. Once I had completed the shoot I felt very proud and even kept looking for more photo opportunities after the fact. What an experience!"

Ellie_K//"ellie_jelly"
"I shot myself at my local dog beach and it was extremely busy. The water is turquoise blue and it was a perfect sunny day, it was fun and I felt naughty, I had to keep putting my new red bikini back on and taking it off because families were walking past with their dogs and I went for a skinny-dip twice. It was exhilarating being naked in nature I just wish I had more privacy but my town is over-run with people nowadays so I take the chance to skinny dip whenever I can, so halfway through my shoot my housemate rocked up with the dogs so I had to wait until he left to finish the shoot."

Sophia_H//"self_apparent"
"Participating in the project has been an amazing adventure, full of challenges and creativity. Celebrating a woman is an excellent initiative in a world where she is seen as an object. I really admire the concept of and the privilege of loving your own body. Doing the shoot has been an empowering experience, and it has given me more confidence. I now love my body, my curves and my personality even more. It has also awakened my inner curiosity, passion and freedom. More girls should do it, all shapes and sizes. Thank you for the opportunity."
