"I really enjoyed the shoot - it was so confidence-boosting! The natural light and HD camera made me feel really confident about my appearance so I had fun playing around with different poses and positions. It was definitely a challenge to get good full-body and butt shots but I learnt some new selfie techniques like holding the camera with my feet! I love that I was able to be fully in control of the shoot as not just the model but the photographer. It was fun and comfortable and I'd love to do another. :)"

"This shoot was quite unexpected but a lot of fun (as usual, I ended up doing something very random from what I originally planned). I planned to make a meal on the beach and do photos with that but at one point a piece of my mirror broke off and as you can see, I got side tracked. But I'm super happy with what turned out. I've never done a shoot with absolutely no makeup on so I thought it was time, as I am a big believer of self acceptance. I always feel very humbly confident after a shoot for ISM which is a massive boost to my day. All I can say is that the female body is something to be proud of and I'm so blessed to have worked with such beautiful people again. Thanks guys!"

"I was so excited for the second "IShotMyself". I went to the beach with my vintage swimsuit, it was sooooo beautiful there and I really enjoyed it! A man with his dog walked past and I think he was curious about what I was doing..... I didn't mind too much, it was a bit exciting that he could see me actually. The day was full of such beautiful light and not as cold as I expected! It was a lot of fun to be creative in nature. I want to do so many more, I love IShotMyself!"

"I wanted this folio to capture a casual, playful, and intimate look at the place where I spend most of my time exploring my sexuality - my bedroom. During the shoot I wore my favourite pair of vintage 1950's underwear and explored posing with some of my favourite things: mirrors, flowers, books. This folio sees me in the place where I am at my most comfortable and confident. I enjoyed getting creative with my poses and taking photos with my feet."
Dec 30, 2017 Lucy_P//"nourish_me"
"For my second shoot, I focused on the idea of nourishment. I tried to convey my feelings around this through using fruit and custard. I chose strawberries, cherries, raspberries and custard because they are such sensual and beautiful foods. By pouring custard over my body I became more aware of my curves, lines and bumps. The whole shoot really reminded me of my femininity and the power of taking care of my body and nourishing it."

"Some people accept nudity in art only as a study of body, any emotion or passion is too vulgar or even pornographic for them. For me, those "pure" studies are often poor, cold and boring. I want to show (not to hide) our emotions, desires, passions and also our small fetishes in my nude photos. I take nudies not for provocation, but for a complex demonstration of who I am and not just my body."
Dec 29, 2017 Lucia_E//"safespace"
"I think I noticed after starting the shoot with clothes on and slowly taking them off bit by bit that I feel much more comfortable without them. My bed has always been my 'safe space' no matter my mental health or headspace and there's nothing more comfortable than rolling around in it on hot or especially cold days while just enjoying my company and my bod."
Dec 28, 2017 Lindsey_C//"sweatynap"
"I had lots of fun making my portfolio. I had just woken up from a morning nap and immediately started shooting. This was my first time using a selfie stick so I enjoyed experimenting with various angles. Afterwards I took a long bath and ate a watermelon :)"
Dec 27, 2017 Jordie_J//"bollocks"
"The shoot took place out in my backyard shed in the back room of said shed where I could close the door, park myself up next to the window and really let loose. Considering it's something I've never done before I very much enjoyed it and would most definitely do it again. I love being naked! If I could be naked all day every day I would. I remember when I was little, me and my mum would be at the shops and I would ask Mum if I could be bollocks and she'd say "No Jordie! Not until we get home! There's too many people around!" But I feel that it's healthy to feel comfortable in your own skin."
Dec 26, 2017 Annie_W//"soul_awake"
"Well...I had the best time shooting myself. Really have never laughed so much by myself. Walking around the streets naked trying my best not to get caught. Climbing trees naked, putting out the bin naked, it was amazing. It was also very empowering, with the shots in the house I really got to look at my body. When I'm at the gym I would be quite modest about getting changed now I'm like "Wooooooo here I am!" (in my own head). My theme was a day in the life of me. And I think or hope I got that."

"This shoot was so funny, and took so long, because I struggled so much to find a spot private enough. I was just lying down, mostly hidden by rocks, just off the St Kilda pier. Only one guy could see me so I just decided that it was a good enough place. Halfway through about 20 stand up paddle boarders came right past with their guide, and a whole group of old tourists... very embarrassing. Overall I really enjoyed being naked at the beach, because it honestly just makes sense. I came to the conclusion that bathers just straight up suck. Free the nip, free the vap, just be free! My bikini is basically a g-string anyway, I honestly don't know why the smallest bit of fabric makes my beach experience socially acceptable. It is a shitty reality that so many people are dissatisfied with their bodies, doing absolutely everything with them (literally) except for appreciating them! No one deserves to feel unworthy in their own skin. We should get more bodies out there in the world, not just the idealised ones. Embracing your body, posing for the camera, expressing yourself is like ecstasy. More bodies!"
Dec 25, 2017 Violet_Russo//"longplay"
"Surrounded by my beloved plants and record collection in my bedroom, I knew that my sanctuary was the right place to shoot myself. I had my little battery operated record player spinning "Between the Sheets", the famously sexy Isley Brothers album... it never fails to make me feel grounded, in my body and free to express, explore and feel. As the shoot went on, I became more and more comfortable and at ease, slipping off my clothes and relishing in the excitement and exhibitionist thrill of being nude by a street-facing window."

"I really love being out in the garden whenever possible and it is definitely much more fun if I am naked too! I like to lie in the grass when it feels nice and cool on a hot summer's day and so I had a lot of fun with this ISM. I especially liked peeing in a glass, I like to see what colour my pee is and how much I can fill it up! It's like a really fun challenge to try and capture it all in the glass, and also quite messy too! I did dribble quite a lot all over the lawn though :D"

"The theme I had for my shoot was to play with the two sides of myself - innocent, sweet and sensual and then dirty, confident and sassy. Then I saw a Christmas hat in the shops and heard "He's gonna find out if you're naughty or nice" and I knew that this was what I wanted to play with, the joining of my dark and light. I love taking provocative pictures of myself, it's one of my hobbies, but usually more of a spur of the moment thing so it was nice to plan a shoot and play and express my sexiness. I am both of these personalities and I had a lot of fun doing this theme."

"This time I decided to shoot myself in the comfort of my bedroom, on my bed. I'd just finished all of my last assignments so I was in a great mood. This time I went with a softer theme with flowers, soft pinks and my silky dressing gown. It was a lot easier this time, I just put on my favourite Beach House record and relaxed for the whole shoot."
