"I had so much fun shooting myself, it was such a new and exciting experience which really pushed my creative boundaries. As it was my first shoot, I felt like a bit of a rookie taking photos on a camera (I'm used to taking them on my small iphone 5). However, over the course of the shoot I felt myself gaining confidence and experimenting further into more interesting angles and new and interesting ways I could express myself. Being naked is so liberating, natural and fun and taking sexy photos of myself made me feel so empowered and a bit cheeky which is definitely my favourite mood. Thanks so much ISM for helping me express myself in a completely new way. It's really helped me open myself up and show myself off to the world."
"At first, this project felt a little funny, despite how excited I was to begin, and how experienced I've become at autonomous nudie shoots. I tend to have an allergic reaction to anything that feels forced, but once I cranked up Pabels on my speaker I really started to let loose... and the wine didn't hurt either. I listened to one of Pabels Day Mixes on Soundcloud, Day Mix 9 to be precise. If you want to hear what I heard, blast this and wait patiently for the build up to Sister Sledge at about 1:12:00...you won't regret it."
"We women have a special connection to the land and whispers of the forest. They remind us that we are worthy, beautiful and powerful. All we must do, is walk along the grass barefoot and let her sink back into our pores. This is a moment for me I will never forget, where I celebrate becoming 24 and oh so in my power for me, and for you."
"I did my shoot was in the comfort of my own bedroom. This is a safe spot for myself. Even my cat decided to come see what I was doing. She tried to get into a few shots and wanted to play with the fairy lights I incorporated in this shoot. It was quite funny watching my cat try get into the shots, I had to close my door so she wouldn’t get into any more. I used the fairy lights as a metaphor that my body can be as pretty as these lights can be. During this shot at first I was feeling nervous as I’ve never done anything like this before. It was quite challenging with trying to get different shots. But after my second try - and a camera malfunction I was able to get these amazing photos of myself and I’m super happy with them."
"Being my second shoot I went into it feeling confident. As soon as I woke up I quickly snuck outside to catch the sunrise (and to ensure everyone in my house was still asleep). Being up early in the morning in the middle of winter I was absolutely freezing (!!). After taking a couple of photos I felt a sudden shift of creativity so I ventured back into the house for some new inspiration. These shoots with ISM have given me a new-found love and appreciation for my body, I plan to love and show love to myself every damn day. Enjoy my shoot :)"
"Esperar a que mis amigas no estuvieran en casa, sentirme tan sexy como me senti fue impagable. Fue una muy linda experiencia y adrenalinica. En algun momento escuche ruido y me oculte pensando en que alguien me veria desnuda, pero solo fueron miedos, no paso nada mas. Asi que comence a disfrutar mi experiencia. / Waiting for my friends not to be home, feeling as sexy as I felt was priceless. It was a very nice and adrenaline filled experience. At some point I heard noises and hid myself thinking that someone would see me naked, but they were only fears, nothing else happened. so I started to enjoy my experience."
"Me divertí mucho haciendo este montaje. Me llevo unas 4-5 horas y solo me detuve porque ya no tenía luz natural. Me encanta usar el contraste de colores en mis fotos, desde chica siempre fui así, me gustan los colores, los brillos, los moños, las estrellas, los pompones, lo kawaii. Mi parte preferida fueron las burbujas, fue muy divertido hacer estas tomas y ver los resultados. / I had so much fun doing this shoot! It took around 4-5 hours and I only stopped because there was no more natural light. I love the contrast of colors in my photos, since I was a kid I always liked colors, glitter, bows, stars, pompoms and everything kawaii. My favorite part of this shoot was the bubbles, it was super fun to take those pictures and see the results."
"The shoot was an incredibly enlightening experience because prior to this I had only really taken nude photos that in one way or another were intended for someone else, and not myself. It was also clear during the shoot that I was less inclined to hide behind mannerisms that I normally do when taking nude photos (for others), such as sucking my stomach in and posing in an uncomfortable way. I think that overall feeling is untouchable and not fearing the reaction of exploring nudity was something that I hadn't really experienced until this shoot."
"I just wanted to have a bit of fun with this shoot. Make it cute, sexy, and relaxed. Most of it happened in my bedroom, where most of the sexy things in my life happen. Although one afternoon all of my housemates were out so I got to go upstairs and take some pics with some of my nerdy horror VHS in the background. I also braved it outside in the backyard, it felt so good to have the winter sun on my skin. I think I want to become a nudist!"
"I challenged myself to do ishotmyself while working on my bucket list which included visiting a clothing optional (nude) beach, and I ended up spending hours just sitting in my own company with some music and the gorgeous view in front of me. I gain so much every time I commit to ishotmyself and this one found me shedding any new anxieties that had wriggled into my life, while also refreshing my sense of self worth and personal confidence."
"I had some trouble at first with this shoot. I got my cycle the week I got the camera and it took me a while to drop into my sexuality. I shook out my feels with my boyfriend and had a little giggle at the nature of the situation. I was then able to drop into feeling sexy and good about the shoot. The lovely humans at ISM HQ allowed me to take some more time and photos and I felt super saucy taking the next round of shots. There were a few times that I cracked up laughing with myself. I felt really sexy and had a lot of fun with myself. It was really interesting to watch myself blossom in the process of this photoshoot and with my cycle. I really feel like I came home to myself in a way."
"Como una persona tan sexy como yo puede caminar por las calles como si fuera una personal normal? Ese fue mi primer pensamiento al ver las primeras 20 o 30 fotos. Despues fui poco a poco entendiendo que esa es parte de la magia en este proyecto! Todo el mundo tiene la capacidad de sentirse una superestrella o la persona mas miserable del planeta la unica diferencia entre una y otra no es tu cuerpo o tu capacidad real sino como te siente. / How can someone be SO FREAKING SEXY? That was my first thought after examining the first 20 or 30 photos. After a bit I understood that it was precisely the magic of the project! That everybody is able to feel like a superstar full of confidence or feel like a miserable piece of crap, the only difference is just the mindset, not the body not the hours you slept the night before!!"
"For many people who go through cancer, their relationship with their body and their sexuality changes. Especially for a woman undergoing a mastectomy, as the breasts are considered such a fundamental part of sensuality and attractiveness. I think as women, most of our sexual experiences outside of masturbation are performative. Someone often tells us what we ought to do to be sexy. It's very fun and liberating to have freedom to create content with no input from the outside: just whatever we please! Shooting alone is the opposite of performance."
"These photos were taken in my friends studio apartment, she silently made herself tea whilst I sat listening to some low-fi jazz picturing my pussy, in front of her mirror. We both giggled a bit but then soon the giggles turned into some sort freeing experience. The shoot taught me anything can be sexy - knees, smiles, stretch marks or even that massive bruise on my ass. Which by the way, still hurts. I'm so grateful for the shoot because it taught me that me - an awkward, clumsy, shy but overly loving young woman can still be sexy as fuck. I didn't think anything could top picturing myself naked learning to love myself but in fact the biggest lesson I learnt was to never leave a camera lying around with 100 plus photos of you grabbing and playing with your nipples only for your best friend's partner to see. Sorry dude xoxo."
"To get myself into the mood a bit more I decided to masturbate beforehand which I found really helped me feel good about myself. I really enjoyed shooting this in my friend's room. It is a very feminine space and allowed me to get in touch with my feminine side a bit more and I really felt a sense of relief and it allowed me to get in touch with my body even more than before in a much more intimate way. I enjoyed playing with the golden light on my skin and warm air blowing in the room made me feel good. I thought about many different things whilst shooting and made myself laugh when I dropped the very heavy camera on my face!"
