Laura_Q//"cote_sauvage"
"My shoot was a total improvisation early morning when all my share mates are asleep. I took some plants and flowers from the garden as accessories to express my wild side. I had a lot of fun with myself and enjoyed my body. / Mon shoot etait totalement improvise tres tot le matin quand tout mes colocataires dormaient encore, j'ai pris de la vegetation du jardin comme accesoires pour exprimer mon cote sauvage. Je me suis amuser et adorer mon corps."

Catherine//"act_of_love_2"
"I wasn't quite sure how it went, it was different talking to a camera when I was alone and naked but it made me realise how easy it is to talk about the things I do and don't like on my body. The more I talk the more I have to say! I am becoming more and more comfortable naked and I hope you can see that!"

Kara_L//"limit_less"
"My shoot was based on the two different sides of myself. My glamour personality - a girl who adores getting dressed up and wearing make up and my natural self - me exactly as I was created. Both sides are completely me."

Valerie_K//"sunshine_soak"
"North Sunnyside Beach in Mount Eliza is one of 3 nude beaches in Victoria, so I thought it would be an ideal place for my next shoot! I drove down to the peninsula with my two little dogs, where we stayed at the beach for a couple of hours towards the end of the day. As the lighting changed from bright to sunset colours, I shot a number of really varied photos, which I have to say I'm pretty happy with. We all had a fantastic time soaking up the sunshine and wading in the water. My dogs are fairly scruffy, so they looked like drowned rats after going for dip in the ocean!"

Giandy//"geometrical"
"During the shoot it was weird to discover that I have a lot of cellulite back there, and it was definitely funny to discover how my body appears geometrical in photos. After a while I wasn`t sure what to do anymore, you know, I just have one body.. :)"

Luna_T//"glitterbug"
The glittering Goddess Luna_T returns to ISM with another stunning folio. Looking resplendent in sparkles, she relaxes in her home and lets us in on one of her special skills - the art of shibari. To say that we're envious of some red cord just because it gets to be wrapped around this wonderful person is ridiculous of course, and yet here we are...as green as gremlins, hating some stupid rope and its dumb luck.

Isla_T//"juxta_pose"
"I wanted to experiment with makeup, so I did a fairytale inspired shoot with both a princess/fairy look, and a darker witchy, intimidating look. I personally love costume, character and makeup design, so being able to play around with two classic juxtaposing themes was a lot of fun. Hopefully my idea is something a bit different to some of the other shoots on ISM, but still portrays the natural beauty of the female body and highlights the importance of body positivity! This shoot was loads of fun and gave me a chance to take my photos to the next level. Heading outside to a relatively public park both gave me the freedom to take more artistic and variable photos, but also brought the challenge of public nudity and body confidence. Despite this, I really enjoyed my second shoot, playing with a new concept, and taking some cool photos (even sitting in a freezing cold lake was worth it for some awesome snaps)."

Maxime//"tv_eye_on_me"
"Bij de aanvang van mijn gap year had ik mezelf voorgenomen om allerlei nieuwe dingen te proberen. Ik had nog nooit eerder naaktfoto's van mezelf genomen voor publicatie en dus was ik benieuwd naar deze ervaring. Bij het nemen van de eerste foto's voelde ik me wat onwennig, maar na de eerste 50 shots voelde ik me avontuurlijker en zelfzekerder worden. Het was een hele uitdaging om voortdurend afwisselende en interessante shots te nemen. Ik heb er nu wel twee nieuwe vaardigheden bij: ik kan met mijn voeten foto's nemen en een spiegel vasthouden. Ishotmyself heeft me een enorme boost gegeven in mijn zelfvertrouwen. De volgende stap is naar een naaktstrand gaan! / At the start of my gap year, I had planned to try all sorts of new things. I had never taken nude pictures of myself before publication and so I was curious about this experience. When taking the first pictures, I felt a bit awkward, but after the first 50 shots I felt more adventurous and more confident. It was a great challenge to constantly take alternate and interesting shots. I now have two new skills: I can take photos with my feet and hold a mirror. Ishotmyself has given me a huge boost in my self-confidence. The next step is to go to a nude beach!"

Liv_R//"call_me_up"
"The shoot was the most fun I've had with myself in a long time. I loved being in charge of what I was shooting, and I loved watching the way my body fell and rolled and folded in all the best ways. I was trying to take up space and be okay with that. I was also called mid shoot by a national tv studio inviting me to audition for a trivia game show! The best things happen when you're naked I reckon."

Lola_Lo//"glory_box"
"I did ISM as it was an exciting opportunity that I hadn't come across. It is something special and empowering I did during my time overseas. I shot myself was challenging as I'm not great at taking photos of myself but I just relaxed and enjoyed it. Because I was travelling when I did this shoot I ended up using my friend's bedrooms which felt risky and exciting as anyone could walk in."

Catherine//"act_of_love_1"
"I filmed bits and pieces of my third ISM wandering through my house, preparing for my day. It is a rare day when my housemates aren't around so I can be naked, how I always want to be! It was still warm in Melbourne, the sun makes me feel even more connected to my body."

Fiona_G//"everglow"
"I had so much fun shooting my pictures, exploring the outdoors, seeing angles that worked and others that didn't so much. I had my cat coming in and out of the photos that was particularly funny but also slightly annoying. I think I found out that I love being naked after this shoot!"

Shishi//"bright_star"
"This photoshoot was a lot of me playing with different backgrounds and areas where I could get the best possible light. I started the shoot poolside, partly because I had already jumped in the pool and it was very very very hot that day. I realised the blue reflection from the pool made the photos amazing!!! Although I realised I was limited in the pool because I couldn't get a lot of nudity in it without getting the actual camera wet haha. I tried to get a bit more props in this shoot. I went into my room to dive into what I've been using in the past few weeks. I came across a hula hoop, score!! And bubbles. Haha, I've clearly been partying too much in the past few weeks!! This shoot was just a buttload of fun!"

Emma_T//"about_time"
"Standing in my court yard, stark naked, skin blue from the cold and balancing on one foot trying to take a selfie with my toe without slipping and falling into the yucca, I thought to myself - "I am not cut out for this artistic bullshit". BUT I persisted and I'm glad I did, the thrill of being caught by my elderly, sweet as a peach neighbour spurring me on. I have no idea if my photos are interesting or if people will just see it as "another naked chick in a suburban garden", but I thoroughly enjoyed the project and have a new found respect for any real models - I now know it is much harder than it appears!"

Celeste_G//"suave_aspera"
"This old place belongs to my family and I couldn't resist to sneak in and have another shoot.
The place was dirty as hell, but makes for a very interesting setting. I like the contrast between the soft skin and the rough everything around. I had to be super careful with the spiky things around and the dirt getting in my eyes, but I believe that only made it more fun. I felt it was easier than the first shoot I did because I already knew what I was going for, and got some props to play with. The pictures I like the most are the ones where the light makes the difference, the shadows in the right place to mark the lines."
