Melanie_K//"prisma_dream"
"A languid afternoon spent in my garden, slipping into a daze of melting, honey time. As the heat rose, I found such delight in tugging off my clothes and feeling the hot air and dappled sunlight on my skin. Enjoying a bowl of strawberries and figs, smelling the jasmine blossom, playing with a pot of honey. Lounging in an erotic, prismatic daydream."

"Doing I Shot Myself was a really fun and natural experience! I did this shoot outdoors and loved how earthy it was. I found it different from my other shoots as this time I went for a very organic pure and wholesome vibe. I absolutely love doing these shoots and hope I can inspire others to take what they can from my shots and find ways to be comfortable and confident with their bodies too. Thank you ISM for allowing me to express myself."

Bailey_L//"automorphism"
"Photographing myself in mirrors around my beautiful home was harder than expected. I had hoped for the thrill of being caught nude but I never was. I ended up wandering around naked all evening. I love the colour of my skin at the moment so matching it with the warmth of my brown sheets, and the deep green chair was aesthetically pleasing for me. It is so important to embrace our bodies, souls and inner energy."

Angie_J//"creative_juice"
"Shooting the photos outside was great, I love nature and fresh air, it was also particularly hot so being naked was perfect, haha. It made me also think of different backgrounds to use in my back yard and get creative. I had so much fun, especially when I used props like a hat, jewelry, make up, and clothes to be taken off gradually. I enjoyed experimenting with different poses and backgrounds."

Claire_G//"strap_lass"
"I undertook this photoshoot fairly spontaneously. At first it felt pretty strange, I took a few photos and felt like I'd run completely out of ideas! After a break I started to incorporate accessories and different poses without thinking too much about how it would look. I found when I stopped overthinking I would take twice as many photos at a time, and they turned out looking much more natural and fun. My favourite part was developing more confidence and venturing around my house and outside."

kippy//"ego_tripping_2"
"This high sex drive is exploding... is it normal for this.. high sex drive.. to be so horny? Nympho. Yeah I said it. I'm a nympho. I think about sex, constantly. I wanna touch and be touched. I wanna rush, not so much. Don't you dare tell me to hush. Tonight he's on my mind, as I think soly with the diamond between my thighs..."

Talia_B//"tournoiement"
"J'ai pris les photos dans le jardin de ma maison ou' je vis avec 11 personnes, c'e'tait amusant pour avoir un peu d'intimite'. Ce n'e'tait pas si facile de prendre les photos moi-meme sous diffe'rents angles, j'ai du me contorsionner pas mal. Assez rapidement, j'avais le corps plein de poussiere jusqu'a'ce que j'ai la bonne ide'e de mettre un matelas sur le sol. / I took the pictures in the garden of my house where I live with 11 other people so it was hard to have intimacy. It was not so easy sometimes to try different angles and I had to contort myself. Pretty soon, I was covered in dust so I finally had the great idea to put a mattress on the ground."

Candice_B//"ahigherlevel"
"When I was shooting IshotMyself, I found it was difficult to take what we have been taught as typically "flattering" body shots. I was capturing many different angles of my body. I noticed in most shots I had curves/rolls, but I realised this is not a bad thing! Even "skinny/smaller" girls have rolls and cellulite. We have been fed the idea that we need to be perfect (no wobbly bits) but having these curves is a part of being a woman! I'm so happy I got to do this project to reach a higher level of self love and acceptance :) Thank you ISM!"

Neve_S//"newnakednow"
"Participating in I Shot Myself made me look at my body from a bunch of new angles. It really opened my eyes and made me smile. I celebrate my body now! It's completely unique, and it got me where I am today. I will continue to make healthy choices and give my body what it deserves. I feel so much more confident and comfortable with my own nudity now. I smile when I think about all the places around the house I've been naked now, letting my nude body leave the safety and security of my room."

Faith_B//"celestify"
"The sun is out and there's something magic in the air. I start taking photos while I'm alone in my bedroom, but the beautiful weather outside is calling my name. I'm craving the feeling of the warm sun on my skin and the gentle breeze through my hair. Welcoming the well overdue change of season, I congratulate mother earth by drawing my appreciation on my window. But a giant loveheart in pink lipstick on the window doesn't satisfy either of us. Temptation overwhelms me and I eventually climb outside onto my window ledge, completely nude and completely carefree. What would the neighbours think!?"

Guinevere_E & Noah//"bodyandmind_2"
"This shoot was very interesting because we got to use a number of spaces such as the backyard of a friend's Mum's house, a holiday house and lying in a concrete gutter. I loved being with my partner and getting creative with our bodies, spaces and minds. Also, it was a great connection to be with her and explore our bodies and each other's in order to produce art and love between us. It's also quite an experience to have sex outside in your friend's childhood backyard."

Hayley_B//"cute_bits"
"Welcome to my little current corner of the world, my bedroom, in all its loveliness. I spend a lot of time in here, so I wanted to celebrate how it heals me from the frantic outside world. I absolutely loved the whole process of ISM...from the nerves I felt prior, to the awkwardness of starting the shoot and feeling stiff, to the playfulness that began opening up, to the point where there was nothing else I'd rather be doing with my Saturday morning, and in the end the intense realisation of how insanely beautiful I feel in my own skin!! Doing this shoot gave me the opportunity to see what I 'actually' and 'realistically' look like and not just the way we see ourselves each day in the mirror. It was like taking a journey into your true self with all of the bits and bobs and cuteness you contain!"

Heidi_L//"lime_on_coconut"
"My best friend was encouraging me the whole way. When we shot at the beach she helped me apply coconut oil to my back as a natural sun deterrent and she said - "I really want to lick you right now!" We had many a laugh as I photographed myself. I loved seeing the light on my body and how even a subtle shift could transform an image and my own sense of self. It was truly transformative."

Wendy_G//"taper_off"
"Spending quite some time deciding what theme or medium I would be using for the shoot, I couldn't be happier with using the tape. (Although taking it off at the end I thought otherwise). I had heaps of fun this time and felt way more at ease. I even had a laugh when my housemate and boyfriend came home and saw me naked and covered in tape, as I had literally just finished tying it around my ankles so I almost fell out of my chair trying to run and hide from them. All in all, it was a great experience."
