New Releases

"Having seen some of the gorgeous outdoor shoots that some other women have created for I Shot Myself, I was inspired and wanted to get down n dirty in nature. So, I began my folio with a shoot amongst the trees near my friend's house in Macedon - beautiful right!? However, I just had to choose the frosssstiest day to be there, with these incessant little spurts of rain. 30 minutes into it and my nipples were so hard I thought they'd never go flaccid again. Then, just as I'm about to go in for the money shot, the full monty, I glimpse a figure across a paddock, trotting briskly towards me (and my friend who was, thankfully, nearby). Turns out I'd been getting frisky on her property... oopsy. My friend apologised for the trespassing and explained to her that we were doing an 'art project'. After initially being a bit shocked, she ended up saying she fully supported what I was doing and admired my bravery being naked out in the cold! She also said to continue using her property for as long as I liked... which didn't end up being much longer as I could barely feel my toes. I then took more photos at home, with the heater pumped up high. Funnily enough, I think these are my favourite photos, in the simple setting of my messy, comfy room."

"Mi sono divertita molto, ci sono volute un paio di foto prima di prendere il ritmo e trovare le angolazioni che preferivo e l'illuminazione corretta; dopodiche e andata alla grande. Ho scattato tutte le foto nel giardino della casa condivisa in cui vivo, e capitato dunque che qualche coinquilino mi ha vista e si fermava interessato a sapere cosa stavo facendo nuda in giardino, molto divertente. Nello shoot ho provato a far prevalere le mie passioni, come cantare, la chitarra e la natura, sono estremamente felice del risultato. / I had a lot of fun during the shoot, it took me a while to get into the rhythm and to find the right angles and lighting but after that I almost couldn't stop. I took all the pics in the garden of the share house I live in and it happened a couple of times that some housemates saw me and came to me asking what I was doing naked in the garden, it was really funny. I tried to put all my passions in the shoot, like singing, the guitar and the nature and I'm extremely happy with the result."

"I was pretty excited to do the shoot. It's not something I've ever done before and I'm pretty amazed at how good I felt about my body when I looked over the photos. I sent a few pics to my girlfriend and then realised I accidentally sent a picture to a mum friend from my kid's school...ooops!"

"This is my fourth project with feck and my third Ishotmyself! I love contributing to ISM, each time I'm asked to do a shoot I get so excited about what I'm going to do and how creative I can get. For this shoot I wanted to do a wet/outdoor theme, I recently installed an outdoor bath in my backyard and thought it would be the perfect location for all things WET!!! But my highlight for sure are the photos I took with my strap on - they are just really hot and powerful! My experience doing this shoot was quite different from previous times. Having the last few years to truly come into my queerness and gender identity I feel so much more at home in my body and its perception/appearance. This shoot is very playful and genuine and it shows a more quirky, dominate and playful side to my personality! I really hope you enjoy my collection as much as I do - keep it real and keep it cheeky!"

It's been a while since we've had a box shoot, hasn't it, ISM? Well, your wait has been rewarded. Melanie K is nothing short of spectacular, and this shoot drips romance - red lips, red brocade, red panties and that red, red rose. All that's missing is the Pinot Noir - but Melanie doesn't even need wine. She's drunk on lust, intoxicated by her own passion for herself.

"I shot in my kitchen, my flatmate was with me helping me to find funny and originals ideas. I had to run away and hide in the bathroom when my other flatmate came in with her boyfriend! I can't imagine their reaction with they would have seen me naked in the kitchen at 3pm! Funny experience though, I wish I could have done this shoot outside, but it was also challenging to do it in a common area, and being naked in the kitchen and do weird positions is a unique experience!"

"I shot Black Leather when I was in Melbourne while I was photographing a bunch of other beautiful people in a stunning apartment with lots of mirrors and soft light! They all cheered me on in the background while we had some drinks, and a couple of dudes on a balcony across the road were watching in too. It was really interesting shooting myself and it was really challenging too. I love how my shoot turned out, how it pushed me out of my comfort zone and made me explore with angles, light and reflection."

"I recently moved apartments and I have a lovely, petite room with an open, double window which creates the most sweet, joyous light. Waking up in the morning is a dream, and for the last four days I have immediately reached for my camera and starting clicking photos of myself just waking up, as the light is prime. It's a beautiful feeling taking pretty, wholesome photos of your naked body in such a warm environment. This take of ISM just felt like something fun that would happen in my spare time."

"Ich hatte heute riesen Spass in meiner Kueche. Ich habe meine Brueste und Vagina mit bunten Zuckerkuegelchen bestreut und los ging das shooten. Ich habe mich total wohl und gut gefuehlt. Jede Frau sollte sich und Ihren Koerper akzeptieren und lieben. Auch ich habe Dehnungsstreifen, welche auf den Fotos ersichtlich sind. Das ist etwas menschliches und nichts verwerfliches. Selbstliebe an jede Frau da draussen. / I had a lot of fun in my kitchen today. I sprinkled my breasts and vagina with colorful sugar kisses and started shooting. I felt totally well and good. Every woman should accept and love herself and her body. Also, I have stretch marks, which are visible in the photos. This is something human and nothing reprehensible. Self-love to every woman out there."

"In the beginning I found this project hard as I lack confidence in my body. But the more I dove into it, the more I fell in love with my own body. It was such an experience and something I think most women should be involved in. It's such a form of self expression and the more involved in the shoot I got, the more I actually could see the beauty in myself. I shot this at home, all over the house, which was liberating in itself. It was interesting to be able to have such freedom."

"Hey, it's Ripley here, I hope you enjoyed watching my videos as much as I enjoyed making them! I've always thought I had pretty good comedy chops, I have done stand up comedy and improv shows in the past, but this was a chance for me to really test it out by running my own show! I was given a topic that I actually don't know that much about - history - and what started as a fun, sexy, educational history cable show very quickly devolved into the disturbing expose of a host being made to dance against her will and whose sanity is sliping through her fingers. It became less about the history and more about the comedy; me feeling out the boundaries of my own sense of humour and how to toe the line between dark and entertaining."

"Als ich versucht habe die ersten shoots zu machen, hat mich ein fremder dabei erwischt und das witzige daran war das er sich unwohler gefuehlt hat als ich. Da wurde mir wieder bewusst wie unwohl sich die Leute mit Nackheit fuehlen oder anderen Leuten die Nackt sind. / When I was trying to do the first shots a stranger saw me and the funny thing waas that he felt more uncomfortable than me. It made me realize how many people don't feel comfortable with other nude bodies."

"Due to the harsh nature of the environment I am unavoidably exposed to, this shoot was very challenging for me. I am constantly moving around so I need to find and use my body as a home, a temple, something I can have constant peace of mind with. I view my body as a canvas, a piece of art I take anywhere and everywhere. This shoot helped my find myself, as cheesy as that sounds. Mid-shoot I got a large stomach tattoo, this alone actually boosted my confidence, I think it is evident in my photos."

"I was so excited to do this shoot, however when I began to do it I found it was even more fun than I was expecting. Constraints around finding a time and place were difficult, but I loved the challenge as it made me think creatively and try things I might not have thought of."

"I found the shoot a lot more challenging than I originally thought. Trying to find the right lighting and also being creative, using different spaces and positions. I put on some funky music to get me excited and danced around the house taking photos. I saw myself through completely different eyes. The camera gets you in such a different way to how you see yourself in the mirror. It was liberating and a learning experience. We are all such beautiful beings and so different, there is not another body like yours!"
