Olive_S//"LittleThingsGrow"
"I wanted these photos to represent the full scope of my personality and sexuality: some of them are silly, some of them are sexy, some of them are happy. I took them around my house, the place I feel safest. We have a beautiful veggie garden that me and my boyfriend care for every day together; it's a ritual we share and one I value a lot. I put on my crocs (my favourite shoes) and went out into the sunshine. I got a bit silly with the fruit from the trees, got my feet (and butt) dirty, got the veggies and herbs involved."

Flora_Verde//"JardínEscondido"
"Fue una experiencia hermosa. Lo disfrute al maximo. Y me di cuenta que todes podemos ser hermoses. Solo hay que liberar la mente y todo seguira fluyendo. Al principio fue un poco extrano sacarme la ropa en el patio de mi casa porque pense que alguien me estaba mirando todo el tiempo. Luego de eso no importo porqe todo fue fluyendo. Fue muy divertido porque muchas veces pense que alguien me estaba mirando y luego de eso pense. Que importa! Es solo un cuerpo mas! / It was fun to do this, and was also a great experience. At first it was kind of weird and I didn't know how to pose. Then I went to my backyard and I took some shots in front of a mirror in a yard full of plants and I really loved it because I love green and nature. I also told some of my friends to let me know if somebody came into the yard. The rest of the shots were taken in my personal space which is my bedroom that I love because of the natural light that it has in the morning."

Renee_M//"pollinate"
"The day I decided to participate in this beautiful project, I got off the bus and it was absolutely POURING with rain. I ran inside my apartment building drenched and exhilarated by the idea of this shoot and decided: what better time than the present? I stripped off my clothes, opened all my blinds and commenced my journey of self love. I laughed and smiled more than I had all week. I got snacky in the middle and got myself some fruit and thought: why not incorporate it? Fruit is SEXY. I took photos with my feet (it's as hard as it sounds), on the floor, on the couch, on the bed, outside (THAT was scary). Everywhere. FYI: taking photos of your bum can be very difficult!"

Tessa_M//"grow_baby_grow_2"
"So, now I'm gonna do some stretching, I used to do gymnastics throughout highschool, I was on the highschool team and stuff. And I used to be so flexible, and then I kind of gave up. But I've been trying to get my flexibility back..."

Sadie_C//"something_blue"
"I wanted to do this shoot because I felt like ISM really aligned with my views on sexuality and the female gaze. I shot myself in my bathroom at home in Chicago. I wore my favorite blue dragon kimono in a lot of the shots because I'm constantly wearing it and it makes me feel incredibly sexy. I also wore my favorite bralette and thong in a few shots too because they also make me feel sexy. I took a few butt shots, which I don't normally do, and they ended up being some of my favorites! Doing this shoot truly helped me feel 100% confident in my body and I would love to do something similar again."

Hyperballad//"AnEroticLife"
"What is an erotic life? This! This is my wonderful, sensory, orgasmic life! I capture images of myself and my experiences without end. Luckily for you I've compiled the best bits over the year into this delicious folio. I encourage you to take a peek into my world! I truly believe that every single day is an opportunity to access pleasure and sensual self growth. So I've chosen to seize the essence of who I am and celebrate it with all my might. I hope every one who looks at these pictures can take a little bit of my enthusiasm and eroticism with them into their own lives."

Mazy//"play_not_pose"
"I find being outside and surrounded by natural objects super inspiring. Getting dirty, feeling the textures of earth, soil, wood, feeling free and feral, tapping in to this connective energy, has always been erotic for me, and has led to some of my funnest sexual experiences. Cheeky al fresco sex all the way! Getting naked outdoors doesn't even have to be sexual though - I love nudism as a practice, getting away from artificiality, restriction and self-set boundaries, playing rather than posing, which is the spirit I tried to capture in my treetop shoot!"

Devi//"earth_elemental"
"This shoot was different from my last experience as I was in my own back yard and had so many inspirations from the time I have spent out there reading my books and listening to music. I felt most inspired by the fairy elf in me who loves to crawl into the bushes and feel immersed in nature. I tried to incorporate all of our plants as well as the natural flowers and bushes into my shots as much as possible as I feel like they are a part of me. Pluto, our parrot, was also something I was really trying to bring into the shots, unfortunately he has a strong will and didn't stay still for long, so that was an adventure in itself and we had fun working together in a battle of wills and compromise."

Freya_T//"all_aboard"
"Two hour train ride? What to do... As the shoot came along my inner artist came out more and more. Putting myself in uncomfortable positions to get a great shot, falling over multiple times, stretching too long, feet sleeping; all back stage extras with this shoot. It was great to be artistic with my body, seeing each limb and shadow as a new canvas. Treating each body part as a piece of art, letting go of judgments and attachments to it. Being comfortable with the uncomfortable. Twisted and turned. Looking from different angles, change of perception. Breaking free from the prison I've put myself in. Finding the grey areas, no more black and white."

Isla_S//"valentines_play"
"This shoot was different for me, incorporating body paint was trickier than I had thought and a bit nerve wracking. Keeping it clean and trying to get it similar to what I envisioned was a challenge but it paid off. After taking a few more pictures in another session it made me feel like it was a more cohesive shoot. I am proud of it still despite my nerves on its perception. Seriously, I would encourage everyone to take a risk and trying something ambitious because you will feel so rewarded once it is all published!"

Jesse_P//"i_S_Asana"
"I decided to go with a yoga theme for my shoot, as it's one of my favourite things to do, and it looks cool too! This shoot was certainly a workout. I had a lot of ideas of photos to take doing yoga poses, but it ended up being harder than I imagined to actually take these shots myself while doing the pose. I'm pretty happy with the end result though! I had to do the shoot early in the morning, so my housemates didn't get a fright walking out to the backyard and seeing me upside-down, naked, with a camera between my legs! I have never been naked in my own backyard, so it was very liberating and refreshing to experience that for the first time."

Nikki_C//"inner_world"
"I shot this whole folio in my bedroom as this is where I felt I would feel most comfortable doing this and it's one of my favourite places to be! I had a lot of fun taking pictures of myself from different angles that I've never done before, it made me laugh a lot. I think this is the first ever time I've taken pictures of myself without any makeup on and I absolutely loved it. This whole experience has given me the biggest confidence boost ever and I'm so happy with the outcome of the pictures."

Yarana//"SiburSibur"
"Experiencing my naked body and knowing the pictures will be looked at by others was scary but also exciting. There were pictures where I thought - "Oh wow, I didn't know I looked like this" and others made me feel self aware and shy. But standing up for myself and embracing the outcome! Getting the frame right was more difficult then I imagined and being so up close to the camera was not something I'm used to. I've had a lot of experience as a model but doing a shoot by myself naked was a very different experience."

Morgan_M//"a_concious_act_2"
"...a time I used to drop into my inner self sensuality. Having you join me on my walk through exploring, appreciating and adorning my body with love was magic because it actualised the notion of doing it in the first place. Watch as I envelope my body in femininity and express my inner wild woman."

Meldora//"within_my_reach"
"Haha, I decided to step out of the house to go and wash my clothes at the laundromat and smell some fresh air out there. I sat by the chairs and stared at the ceiling and into nothingness and then saw a post about nude models and straight away I cracked that naughty smile coz it was right down my path. Little did I know I was gonna do yoga and photography at the same time. My word, I'm more appreciative of my arms now coz they are freaking good selfie sticks man. As for some positions, it made me realise everything is possible in this world. I had fun and I love my body entirely now."
