New Releases

"Avez-vous déjà regardé Breaking Bad? C'est l'une de mes séries préférées donc quand j'ai trouvé cette incroyable combinaison jaune et ces immenses bottes en plastique (oui, je pouvais mettre mes deux pieds dans une seule!) je me suis dit qu'il fallait que je les essaye. Et j'ai commencé à prendre des photos. Et j'ai commencé à me déshabiller. Et vous connaissez le reste! C'était une si belle journée pour prendre des photos, et puis j'adore ces hautes herbes sèches. Et pour ceux qui connaissent Breaking Bad, j'imagine que c'était un bon endroit pour prendre mes photos! Bienvenue dans votre nouvelle série: Bushing Bad! / Have you ever watched Breaking Bad? That's one of my favourite TV show ever so when I found that crazy yellow suit, with those huge rubber boots (I could have put my two feet in one!) I thought I had to try them on. And I started to take pictures. And I started to get naked. And you know the rest! Such an awesome day to take pictures, and I love high dry grass. And for those who know Breaking Bad, I guess it was a good place to take my pictures! Welcome to your new TV show: Bushing Bad!"

"This shoot was empowering and liberating. I had such a fun time playing around in my house with different reflections and positions. I explored my body from different angles and fell in love with the beauty of my body and self as well as finding a new appreciation for photographers. Photography (as fun as it was) definitely requires experience and practice to find the right lighting and angles but this has inspired me to take more photos of myself and the life that surrounds. I do have to say I gave my neighbour across the road quite a show laying naked in clear view, I was so distracted with admiring my body he must have been standing there for a while. Hopefully I made his day."

"It's early spring and I'm on holiday, visiting my Aunt who lives out in the middle of the country. On a lazy Sunday I decided to go exploring around her huge property. I found this beautiful patch of fresh buttercups and I couldn't resist getting undressed amongst the flowers and trees. Being naked outdoors is SO much fun! Embracing the sun's rejuvenating energy I felt even more connected to the exquisite powers of beautiful mother earth!"

"I would say to anyone thinking of doing the shoot to go for it! I had a lot of fun and I was very pleased with the outcome! Don't ever be ashamed or embarrassed of your body, you are beautiful! Stay sexy! xox"

"The day I took these photos it was a super cold and grey day. The first few photos I took felt awkward and I started to doubt myself, but then I took a few more and my confidence started to grow and by the time the sun had come out I was having so much fun and was even turned on. I took the photos in my bedroom and in my bathroom, a place that for me represents self care, which is what this project was for me, a complete act of self love. I ended up taking over 200 photos and could have taken more, it was such positive experience that gave me so much confidence in my body and in myself."

"Ich habe die Bilder gemacht als ich bei Freunden zu Besuch war, also musste ich einen Zeitpunkt finden zu dem ich alleine im Haus war, da ich nicht wollte, dass sie von dem Shoot erfahren. Das hat die Erfahrung sehr aufregend gemacht. Ausserdem war es arschkalt im Haus als ich die Bilder gemacht habe, aber ich wusste ich musste es durchziehen, weil ich keine andere Moeglichkeit bekommen wuerde. / I was staying at a friend's place while I was shooting myself, so I had to find an opportunity when they weren't home to do the shoot, because I didn't want them to know I was doing it. It made it really fun and exciting. Also it was super cold in the house while I was shooting, but I knew I had to do it now, because I wouldn't get another opportunity."

"Sometimes society will try to let you down. Sometimes society will try to make you hate. This. ... But I know, even though, you've been conditioned to hate yourself, that someone is going to help you change your mind. You gotta be kind to yourself, and then kind to someone else, because, no one can do this alone."

"As I shot throughout different times of the day and different states of self confidence I realised how empowering the very act of taking a nude photo was. Every time I put the camera down I felt more confident and creative. I had a great time gallivanting around my house with nothing but a camera and my naked self, my cats watched whilst very confused from afar. I was experiencing a roller coaster of emotions during this shoot because of a combination of my period and a myriad of external factors, but I used the ishotmyself experience as a sort of mindfulness exercise. It was very therapeutic."

"Me senti muy emocionada de conectar con mi cuerpo en la naturaleza, me senti salvaje, parte de la naturaleza, me sentia enamorada de mi misma. En medio de la session una amiga vino a visitarme y yo continue fotografiandome, mientras ella me contaba de su vida yo estaba desnuda entremedio de los arbustos. Fue muy divertido. / I felt very excited to connect with my body in nature, I felt wild, part of nature, I felt in love with myself. In the middle of the session a friend came to visit me and I continued photographing myself, while she told me about her life I was naked in the middle of the bushes. It was fun."

"Fooling around in an empty house, mid-renovations in a high end suburb. After plastering and painting the fresh new walls myself, I took the liberty of using the raw background and still dirty floors to capture some more photos. It was cold and it was dirty. Plaster dust got all up in my bits and pieces but I love the contrast it created with my pale soft skin. It was also a nice break in between coats of paint drying. I hope the pretentious neighbours caught an envious glimpse of me sprawling about the floor in my curtainless set."

"My room is a pretty dope space so it makes sense I would shoot myself there. You might spot my comic book collection in the background or some of the old school games (although, why are you looking in the background?). I adore my sense of style and it was quite challenging to be naked yet still encompass my quirky style. Thank goodness for chokers, and my favourite house plant."

"Once again I had so much fun exploring my body in a whole different and new way, by shooting ISM. This time I felt more comfortable from the beginning onwards. I wasn't too shy in front of the camera and I felt I could just be my natural self. It's difficult learning to love the parts of your body that are not accepted by society in a natural way, since they are not shown in every magazine, ad, etc. ISM has again managed to help me get a step closer to my goal, and I can't be more thankful for guiding me on my journey. Taking photos of myself naked in public places was such an adventure and thrilling, I had adrenaline boosts every time I thought someone was coming - I loved that ;)"

"I loved doing this shoot! Initially it was a challenge, shooting at my cousin's place where I've been staying. In secret, it felt a little naughty and I wasn't able to be as creative as I wanted to be so this inspired a change of location and I went to a friend's place where I could be so much more free and it was so much fun. I felt so open with the whole shoot, open with my body and was able to be way more creative in the space I had to play with. It was totally liberating and I feel so beautiful and in touch with my body after the shoot. It's also nice to know it was all me making the shots I wanted to show. My friend was also around doing her thing which was really nice. Sexuality and nudity don't have to be a secret. It was really amazing to share the experience with her! I think everyone should get the chance to do this for themselves!"

"This shoot was struggle street. Don't be mistaken, I had a world of fun, however doing different positions, finding correct lighting etc was hard! Perhaps I lack creative thinking; I almost pulled a leg muscle in some pictures too. I chose a maid theme initially, then I decided to drag my poor rabbit Totoro into my nude life. He was not very impressed but I feel like we bonded over it. Compared to my previous shoot, this was much easier as I didn't have to travel to an unknown forest and fear that big foot would attack me. I'm truly grateful that I had a second opportunity to shoot myself!"

"I shot myself on various days and at different times of the day to get a good variety of lighting and also how my moods changed each day. My folio shows myself being cheeky and experimenting with different angles that people wouldn't usually see me from. I also project a large quality of my personality in this shoot as I am very outgoing, fun and flexible."
