New Releases

"I work as a chef, and I love life. I originally wanted to show something in my photos that showed the part of me that was Afghani. It fills me with relief that I was born in a place where I have the freedom to express my sexuality, but also great sadness that this is not the case everywhere. This was the first time I cried about how unfairly woman are treated. It made me realise the importance of projects like these and there liberating influence on others."

"The funniest thing to happen was when I went to an abandoned warehouse intending to do some art. Alone in the building, I decided it was a perfect opportunity to pull out the camera and shoot myself. I was really getting into it so I didn't see or hear this random dude enter the building. The battery died on the camera so I stopped the shoot and just laid there on the floor with all these ideas in my head. The next minute I heard some footsteps and a gasp and I turned my head to greet a stranger with a camera. There wasn't much else I could do but strike up a conversation with the red faced dude as I walked to the other side of the building to grab my clothes and pack up. Turns out he was an urban explorer photographer with a penchant for abandoned buildings and graffiti. He told me he had always wanted to come into the building and shoot it but had been afraid until today when he finally worked up the courage. I was friendly and tried to make him feel comfortable about the awkward situation. I told him what had happened and suggested he take some photos of me in the building. We had a great photo shoot, he's an amazing photographer and I'm planning on doing a shoot with him in the future. Strange how the world works."

"Yes, I decided to shave my pussy. I took advantage of the situation and had a bit of fun while doing it. So, I drew a heart in my pussy (I've always wanted to do that) then shaved just half of it and later ended up very smooth... Thanks for accompanying me through the process."

"This was a very sneaky shoot, as my roommate was sleeping in the background. With the bed off limits I decided to play around with my mirror image for the most part. I nearly had a heart attack at every toss and turn, but it's always fun to break the rules and get away with it."

"I decided to do this shoot because I have had a recent experience where I was surrounded by people undressing and jumping into a waterhole. I felt vulnerable but I wanted to do that too.. So I did. I came out of the water healed and confident in the love and freedom I felt. I am comfortable in my skin and I love myself enough to surrender to my own truth! Being naked helps me feel closer to the earth. Rooted into the centre. Connected to the sun and the water. I feel natural. I feel free. I feel beautiful. I feel me. I could probably surrender to the forest one day and live free in nature. I want to share my happiness. I will spread my love wherever I go. Because we are all beautiful."

"I was planning my day off to laze around in the sun in the backyard all on my lonesome, but the neighbours decided to pull down our adjoining fence and begin renovating the side wall. I let them know I was planning to spend the arvo out the back and I was wanting some privacy, and they agreed to go away. Feeling a little dubious about them, I grabbed my headphones to drown out their noise and hid myself in the back corner. I was so distracted, I didn’t notice the other workmates arrive. I think I may have been busted falling asleep with my hand in between my legs!"

"I started to shoot in the end of August and it was really hot and the light was gorgeous. Then in the first September days I needed to use lamps to get a similar effect. I shooted in my house when my boyfriend was out so I only had mornings but it was great. Moving naked around the house, choosing the light and the poses, I felt that the appartment was my partner."

"Shooting the ISM video opened up a whole new world for me. After doing a few image shoots, I was enthralled by what moving image opened up for me. I could stretch and move and be free, without having to take 20 shots first. Without the pausing for a frame, I could explain the way my body moved in the space, highlighting every muscle, each note from my throat and even the wind rushing by. The opportunity to express myself in spoken poetry and singing really meant a lot to me. It was me out there, vulnerable and bare, literally." Hear Allie's singing next week in Part 2.

"I had an awesome time taking these photos. Being naked in nature is one of my favorite things so I felt right at home. Taking photos of myself is something I rarely do, especially photos like these ones, but I was surprised at how fun it was and felt empowered embracing my inner goddess."

"I shot this folio in a couple different rooms in my apartment over a couple days. I'm a huge homebody; I love to lounge around my home, especially in the library where I took most of the photos. I was thinking about things that were natural to me in my home environment. Shooting went as expected, but unfortunately some of the best shots didn't come out as I wished for due to difficulty with getting lighting just right indoors. However, I felt great and had a lot of fun creating the folio, and love the feeling of sharing some of the intimate spaces of my everyday life."

"I shot myself in my friend's backyard after riding over on a hot Spring day. At first I felt a little awkward being so exposed in front of my friends for the first time but as the day went on I began to feel completely at ease with my exhibitionism and nudity. I ended up having a really fun day in the sun with my mates, we even got icecream! The only problem was that the dog kept trying to be in the shoot too."

"I had so much fun shooting this and exploring the different angles I could capture while holding the camera. It was a lot harder than I thought especially with my big DSLR. There are so many different areas in my house that have very different looks to the last so it was exciting to see what i came up with in each area. The weather was all over the place when I was shooting, but it felt great!"

"Tijdens het reizen door Australie, proberend om zo goedkoop mogelijk te reizen, kom ik soms op aparte of mooie plekken terecht. Helaas was mijn camera kapot tijdens een deel van mijn reis, waardoor ik de mooiste en uniekste plekken niet heb kunnen vastleggen! Oorspronkelijk kwam ik naar Australie, met het idee dat ik hier misschien zou willen wonen. Na bijna een jaar te reizen, weet ik dat dit niet mijn cultuur en natuur is. Daarom ga ik binnenkort naar Europa om een mooi plekje te zoeken./ During my travels in Australia, trying to spend as little money as possible, I often end up in weird or beautiful places. Unfortunately my camera broke during the most interesting part of my travel, but still, here is a little view of my life. Originally I came to Australia with the idea I might want to live here somewhere in a natural spot. After almost a year of travelling, I am sure that this is not my culture and that I don't feel connected to the type of nature here. I will continue my travels to Europe, on a mission to find an amazing location."

"I shot this set at my partner's mum's house. The lighting in own my home is terrible so while we were visiting this beautifully lit room it seemed the perfect opportunity to shoot. Except for the fact, obviously, that it's tricky to shoot nude photos while your partner's mum is around! We found a nice afternoon when we had the place to ourselves, gathered all the vegetables and plant life and threw in a bit of bondage too because, why not? I've really been wanting to try to experiment more with photography and improve my skills, this was a fun challenge and I'm pretty happy with the results!"

"The weather was stiffling hot, stagnant, and without a breeze in sight. I retreated to my little backyard pool to cool off, with my sparkly tentacles creating beautiful shapes, curling and floating behind me. I had one small hiccup which occured when I was packing down... my friend's mirror smashed into pieces all over my backyard. Oops! I was able to retrieve most of it, and very slowly and meticulously glue it back together."
