"I had to take a break during this shoot as I was confronted by seeing my body in certain angles. It was totally unexpected because I'm used to being nude in front of the camera. It took me a little time to regroup my thoughts and realise that what I was seeing was who I am and that I need to love what I look like. Being able to push through and complete the project and learn something new about myself was such a great reward."

"Doing the ishotmyself shoot outdoors in a public space was so much fun! The natural lighting was great, the vibrant foliage was a magnificent backdrop and who doesn't want to hear birds chirping as they photograph their nude body. There were a few moments when dog walkers would pass by and I would have to quickly duck further behind the bushes I was shooting behind, which honestly only added to the adrenaline of the shoot. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat!"

"I did my shoot on a boiling hot day so I thought I'd be safe outside without many people around but I was so wrong! I went to some wetlands and realised everybody in Melbourne was rowing down the river that day! I caught many men having a sneaky look hehe. I did this shoot with my beautiful best friend sitting nearby to chat to me and we made it such a gorgeous day picnicking in the sun! I felt so dirty but happy in nature!"

Kirsty_A//"breakwater"
"Having taken my previous ISM indoors, I wanted to see if Mother Nature would acquiesce to my bare arse on her beach. I'd heard rumours there was once a nudist spot so decided to make camp amongst the dunes, hoping to snap a few pictures before any beachcombers got too curious. Slowly undressing from clothes to bikini felt like a tease, and then finally plucking up the courage to strip - getting sand in all the right places - was an interesting sensation. Naked playtime amongst the waves was definitely a bonus!"

"I did the shoot over a number of days as a way to show me and my life. I wanted my folio to depict me in my everyday state and the most familiar places to me, my apartment, my family home and garden. It was important to incorporate some of my favorite things; maths, nature, Dungeons and Dragons, and my Nintendo 64, to really show how natural being naked is and how comfortable it can be. I had an amazing time shooting in my family garden. It's so beautiful, I wish I had more time to take shots there. This was a great chance show off my fancy panties, and not so fancy alike."

Abella//"cuddle_me"
"There isn't much that beats a lazy day wrapped in between sheets. The warm sun beaming through my open bedroom windows and soaking into my skin made this possibly the most soothing and relaxing shoot I've made for you so far, and the exhibitionist in me couldn't help but find excitement in the idea of the passers by on the other side of the glass catching a glance. I had so much fun taking these photos, I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed taking them for you."

Alice_P//"go_ask_alice"
"I enjoy mixing patterns and textures, structure and shape. I enjoy delicious, sweet aromas and tangy, juicy flavours. They delight me, remind me of utopic times and I am a very nostalgic person. I had to shoot each photo quite quickly and jump up and hide as the lovely owner of the house (who I thought would be at work) would constantly pop her head through the door... however I feel this added some nice, impulsive positioned shots. Additionally, every time I moved, I would get minor carpet burn. My thighs and bottom became warm and pink and I was bitten by a mosquito in the process. I think this all added some nice, colourful hues."

Anna_Mia//"party_line"
"Having spent over 50 years of my life performing in amateur theatre, my mind raced with amazing ideas for Ishotmyself. I wasn't fazed about being naked as long as I had my accessories - I love my bling. The headscarf is something I've had to learn how to use to best effect recently, it was the good feedback that I received from family and friends that made me feel more confident to use one in the photos. Ishotmyself was a very liberating experience."

Lucille_D//"sapiosexual"
"Indoors and outdoors, above and below, the angles and lights explore my body as I do. Join me on an adventure as I navigate through books, flowers, gardens, picnics, polaroids, and motorcycles. What’s a little danger amongst the weeds? A girl with a brain and a body, and the capacity to appreciate and explore both. Both erotic and relaxing, I thoroughly enjoyed the sensations of grass beneath my belly, a book between my thighs, the heat of the motorcycle fresh out of the sun, and soft sheets against my back. Daily sensations become sexualized to me, as I explore them in an entirely different light. We’ve all seen the hot chick draped in leather perched over her bike, but to actually feel the heat of a cooling pipe beneath bare skin is an entirely different experience."

"Early one autumn morning I took to my garden. The sun shone a pale light, warming my bare skin and filling me with energy. There were weeds to be pulled out from the veggie patch. Beautiful seasonal offerings of pumpkin, kale and tomato hid among the long weeds waiting to be discovered. Gardening naked, the perfect start to the day, putting my hands to the soil, helping this garden to flourish."

Maggie_Finn//"one_sweet_step"
"I find that subconsciously we attract the love that we think we deserve. I'm not usually one to allow myself to be governed by the words or actions of others, but I think I have been broken one too many times by the people and the ambitions I love the most. It's scary how much effect it has on the way I project myself in life. I may seem physically confident but like many, I have super low self esteem from years of persistently compromising my self-worth for others. In recent years; years where I should be out enjoying my youth, new lovers or starting a family, I find myself rapidly shutting off from society, becoming reclusive and cynical of anyone who comes close. I was once passionate, spontaneous and always got lost in the moment. Now I struggle with insignificance. They say you can't expect to be loved if you don't love yourself. This is me, taking a small step towards loving myself again. To be accepting of who I am and open to affection. Wooo!"

Tori_K//"sparks_fly"
"Doing I shot myself was an incredible experience where I encountered multiple challenges I have needed to face for a long time. I'm extremely insecure and uneasy about the way my body is shaped and looks. I am slowly learning to see and feel my beauty. I've never taken pictures of myself nudie before! As confronting as it was, it showed me how beautiful my imperfections really make me compared to how I think I want to be. Thank you ISM!"

Lucia_M//"heterochromia"
"Colourful and free. Relaxed and warm. Overflowing with light and love. Radiant and gloriously nude. In my element, exploring my divine feminine nature in mother nature herself. A nurturing breeze on my skin and the natural light from the sun adorning my surroundings. Radical body loving, shameless shape embracing, relentless creative expression in my most honest and raw state.The freedom to be, exposing my authenticity (including some funky sunburn pattern on my boobies from a nipple pastie and fishnet boob tube combo on the weekend at a doof) Is there enything better? Probably not. I just love being nude in nature."

Casey_M//"big_day_out"
"I went to the forest, found a nice little side trail, and set up camp. The total travel was 6 hours on transport, and an hour walking (I may have gotten lost). At first I was so worried about getting caught, my hands were shaking and I couldn't take photos for the life of me! Once my nerves calmed down, I completely forgot I was in a forest 3 hours from home, vulnerable to my surroundings. I had a Bluetooth speaker pumping sick beats and I was in the zone. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to do this shoot, and I'd happily do more :)"

Kaye_C//"staysoft"
It's a shame we can't give the art prize to reloads. Kaye's second shoot has it all - artistic intention, sensitivity, forgeous framing, lighting, and of course, a stunning model. If you like ripe juicy figs, deep-throat strawberries, wet business shirts, high leg dance warmups, sheer anything, if you like red flowers, sideboob, electric neon feathers, if you like anything, you should open up this folio. Because this folio has it all.
