Kyu//"flower_power"
"I shot myself mostly at my partner's place. I thought that the door lock didn't work, so I had to be really careful in case my partner walked in. Of course, he knew that I was shooting myself naked and didn't mind it, rather encouraged me to do it (because he knows that I am so shy), he tried not to disturb me by studying in the living room. Then a few minutes later, the door smashed open and his housemate walked in to look for a pencil! Standing in front of the mirror and holding a camera, I thought I looked pathetic! His housemate was freaking out and he shouted sorry as he was shutting the door. I burst into tears and cried for an hour while my partner tried so hard to make me feel better. That night, my partner warned his housemate, "be careful, because she might taunt you with the pencil forever."

Flur//"new_age"
The Dutch darling we've come to know and love Brings It again with a folio that has all the trademarks of another perfect Flur shoot. Her brilliant sense of humour and knack for picking amazing locations and props are all present, and the charisma she exhibits is just positively oozing from every wonderful image she has gifted us.

Eilish//"little_secret"
"I didn't feel good about myself this day but it was the only time I had to take photos. As soon as I started I felt better! It's so important to show yourself some love and find time to appreciate your body. I felt sexy and proud and really confident after. I even looked at my apartment differently and found small quirks. Like how the light shines through my blinds, when I see it now I giggle and think damn that light made my body look good, it's like a little secret."

Grace_R//"elements"
"After my first ISM shoot that was mainly indoors, it was time to venture outside...I made the most of a peek of Melbourne sun to get some photos and experiment with shadows, which I thought alluded to the hidden, shadowy elements of a woman's body and identity. This was in juxtapostion to the open and honest nature of my naked body. I shot over a few days so I also got the soft light of a grey cloudy day. It was oddly comforting being outside and shooting myself as it drizzled, when usually I would be snuggled up inside listening to the rain. I was outside and experiencing the weather while at the same time experiencing my body. I did a mixture of clothed, partially clothed and naked images in this shoot, and actually felt most comfortable when I was fully naked. I'm getting the hang of this ISM thing! And I'm loving it!"

my_skin//"Louise_A"
"So this is me. I am kinky and sexual and more than happy with myself. My skin is mine, I don't care if people don't like it or are offended by my short top or tattoos. I have worked hard on being happy with my body and my sexuality. I was one of those girls that would hide when she was spoken to, I would never wear a sexy dress or low cut top because I felt like I wasn't good enough for it. Then one day I said "to hell with it" and I took myself out of my comfort zone. I got that sexy dress and wore it well. I found out then it's all in your head and now I do what I want for me. I love my own body and think every woman should! If my shoot helps one woman to see that the little scar on their tummy is just as beautiful and sexy as the rest of them then I am even more happy I did this."

Ophelia_O//"big_sky"
"I shot this at a nude beach on Fire Island, NY, USA. Unsurprisingly, I was the youngest person there, so I think people were curious as to what exactly I was doing there. I had already really wanted to go to the beach, and I figured if I went to a nude beach it would be a good opportunity to shoot. This was also my very first time at a nude beach.
I burn really easily, so I applied SPF 100 sunblock before I shot this. However, you can tell in
the photos that the sun had already gotten to me on my walk over to the beach, so I've got a slight tan on my chest in the pictures.
Shooting this was a bit tricky, because the water would occasionally suddenly come up really far, and at one point prior to shooting, everything I had laid out (my tote bag, clothes, towels) got completely soaked. So I had to be aware of the water at all times so that my tripod and camera wouldn't get destroyed. It was also a bit tricky making sure that sand didn't get in the camera, since wind kept blowing it upwards and because I was obviously covered all over in sand. I also had to wait for people to finish walking by so that I could continue taking pictures. Luckily the water was super cold, so no one went frolicking in the water behind me."

Em_A//"free_spirited"
"I did my shoot in the backyard of the sharehouse I live in. Living among open minded, free spirited people, there is regularly a lot of nudity in the backyard. I've always been quite reserved or self-conscious about my naked body so I used this shoot to embrace my nudity around my home and friends."

Penny_J//"literature"
"My flatmates have no idea how many surfaces in our apartment I've been naked on. I wanted aspects of my personality to show in the pictures--my gentility, coyness, my chaos, my playfulness.
The jam donut was probably the most fun to play with, it was a spontaneous idea. I had already eaten about 4 hot jam donuts and was somehow able to muster enough self-restraint to snap a few photos. Then I swallowed it whole."

Amba_L//"pure_nature"
"I shot myself in the front and back yard at my mum's house in pure nature and with my beautiful kitty, Rudy. I wanted to show all forms and shapes of bodies are beautiful even if they're not necessarily the "norm" of what society depicts and tells us we "should" be."

Katie_W//"secluded"
"I stumbled across a beautiful park in the suburbs and decided to do my shoot there, as I knew I wanted to do it outside but wasn't sure exactly where. I didn't think about it much I just went into a secluded area and took my clothes off and started taking photos. It all felt a lot more comfortable and natural than I expected it to. It was a very freeing experience to be naked in a tree photographing myself and I didn't really want to put my clothes back on afterwards. The only problem was that I was attacked by mosquitoes and my legs and bum are now covered in bites."

Lilly_P//"pink_perfect_1"
"Shooting a video for ISM was lovely! It was a bit tricky balancing things in our teeny bathroom, but about half way through I finally got my act together. Videoing my naked body for some reason felt quite different to photographing it."

creativitea//"Nyxie"
"I really enjoyed the shoot, it gave me the excuse to be naked in the garden all day! It was great that this project encouraged me to get creative, so I had a lot of fun trying different tricks and using different props to make nice looking photos.
My favourite part was going through them all at the end, I was really happy with the results! It made me feel super confident and proud of my body. I think its a beautiful way to celebrate yourself and I am glad for this opportunity."

hotline//"Maggie_J"
"I did most of my folio without makeup on because that's the way that I live my day to day life. I did put on some red lipstick and mascara because those are the makeup items that enhance the beauty in my eyes and in my lips. The folio is about a lazy day at home.
/
Hice la mayoria de mis fotos sin maquillaje porque esa es la manera en la que vivo mi dia a dia. Me coloque labial rojo y mascara porque esos son los productos de maquillaje que eleven la belleza de mis ojos y mis labios. Las fotos son de un dia de flojera en casa."

Lulu_L//"blond_on_blue"
Lulu_L returns with another smashing folio and it appears that she has absconded with our hearts all over again. You can't really blame us though, it's easy to get swept up in those aquamarine peepers of hers. Couple that with an incomparable beauty and ease with herself in a gorgeous setting and there's little that one can do to fight the urge to scream your love for Lulu_L from the rooftops - but then, why would you even try to resist?

Emy_W//"endless_sky"
"It was pretty obvious to me that I would do my shoot on the farm. It is a place I can be anything I want to be, and do anything I want to do. Although this was the first time it meant stripping off and getting creative in the wool shed. But saying that it meant I got to look at the objects and places that I've seen a thousand times before and spent my whole life with, and think "hey that could be cool". Everything is better when you are nude. Love yourself girls, you are all beautiful."
