New Releases

"When I heard about ISM I felt empowered to do it, especially at this stage in my life. I am about to turn 60 in a couple of weeks and going into menopause I have gained a couple of kilos so baring my beautiful, yet imperfect, body just felt right. I felt so free while taking these photos, it was a great experience."

"It was a nice morning but I was so bored, at home, alone, so I said "Why not play with the camera?" I enjoyed myself. I get horny when I take myself nude photos. It's really exciting the idea that somebody can arrive from work and catch me! :P"

"During my hunt for bugs last time, I noticed my garden was looking slightly dire, so I set out to liven up my dead garden with a splash of ice cold water. I think I may have gone a bit overboard when I got distracted though..."

"Doing this shot outside and hanging the red clothes on the clothesline on one of the coldest days of the year was a slow process for two reasons: one because I'd kept having to run inside and stand over the heater to warm up and two because I wanted to avoid the middle-aged neighbour who often sticks her head over the back fence to have a chat! I wanted to include clothes without a body inside them by hanging them on the clothesline. To me this symbolises the washing out of old steroytypes and cliches surrounding the reality of being a woman, and of being naked."

"I made this shooting at home. It was really fun, but I was embarrassed when neighbors noticed me in the window. After watching all photos I was really pleased, I liked them very much."

"I have recently moved into a beautiful beachside suburb in a high rise apartment overlooking the bay. Every morning I wake, happy to be alive and living in such picturesque surroundings. I love running along the beach and in nearby parks....I consider this time my meditation. I'm able to indulge in amazing coffee while I sit and watch the passing parade of people, whilst the suns beams warm my body and the nearby sounds of waves crashing against the shore calm my spirit. Living in my sundrenched apartment makes me feel safe and peaceful. My home allows me to look down upon the world, taking it all in, reminding me of how blessed I am to be alive and in this body I was born with."

"Fun fact: I shaved my legs in the rough surf before this shoot (not that there's anything wrong with body hair, just felt like being smooth) and my tub of moisturizer was swept away. When I chased it down it was full of sand, but who knew - that created the perfect exfoliator! Also the location was in a much more direct view of the road and passing trucks than I thought... I had a bit of a multiple-drive-by, iPhone-out-the-window or pulling-over-just-up-the-road type audience. At least nobody called the police. I wish nakedness wasn't such a big deal to most of society. This was the most fun I've had and pure bliss I've felt by myself in awhile and I'm really glad I did it."

"Being right by the river was lovely, I had the location in mind because of the lack of people and quietness. Although there was plenty of mosquitos to make things interesting! I loved the soft lighting in between the trees but I wanted to mix it up a little with the quirkiness of the concrete box which was much darker inside due to the trees overhead. I experimented with flash which was new & got the shoot done rather quickly cause it was 6 degrees outside! Brrr!"

"These photos were taken in my bedroom on a beautiful sunny Friday. I thought I would use the huge deer wall hanging behind my bed as a backdrop to make the shoot seem more mystical and enchanting combined with the reflections and angles from the mirror."

"This time it's all about fun in the sun, Jurassic adventures in the back yard and Melbourne's spring flowers. Welcoming the Summer heat by frollicking nude in the back yard. This shoot will inspire a lot more summer adventures in the birthday suit, I'm sure. Feeling the fresh air all over your body rocks! Let the Sun kiss thy skin!"

"Before the shoot I had different feelings. I felt pretty excited but it was also something I've never done before so I thought it might be a challenge for me. After I took my clothes off, I felt totally free, I felt like I went back to my roots, very tribal and natural, and I realized that it is such a normal thing. I even thought I wanna be naked more often now. Also, I didn't mind people watching me anymore, which I did before."

"For months I've had 'self-love mirror' at the top of my wishlist. I wanted to spend time with myself and see into myself, easily and often. I wanted to bear witness to my shapes and features, and stare into my eyes until everything else falls away and I am broken open by my own unconditional attention. The morning before this shoot, this beautiful mirror came home with me, much bigger than what I originally had in mind. It fits all of me and more. This folio is a greeting, a first time meeting of old friends."

"I shot myself at two locations. The first was behind a set of train tracks in the woods. I came across a mud pit and was excited to get a little dirty. I had a blast being nude in the mud and shooting myself. I felt so free. The second location was behind my house which is also surrounded by woods. I laid out a blanket with my guitar and even got a nap in after I shot myself. I felt so good about myself after my shoot."

"Red Bluff Cliffs is one of my favourite places. The dramatic cliffs, the pleasing curves of the ridges... perfect beauty, perfect light. Many a time there’s been a professional photographer snapping away at a swimwear model, a ballerina... and then there’s me. Naked. At first I started the shoot in a more secluded spot, a little bit modest. But then I started getting comfortable, experimenting - and then the sun came out and set the golden-orange sand on fire. I couldn’t resist – I shot myself, naked, in plain view of a wedding photographer and his fully-clothed model."

"Nous sommes ce que nous montrons au monde. J'ai voulu transformer mon corps en un ecran qui acceuille et renvoi le monde. Un retro-projecteur, decoupe et transparents furent utilises. Tout ce qui nous touche deviens ensuite une part de ce representons. Utilise le corp comme un ecran inverse egalement l'idee de la femme publicitee, toujours la meme stereotypee longue et froide, eclairee a n'importe quelle heure du jour ou de le nuit. Etre un ecran force le spectateur a regarder ce qu'il y a sur/dans moi, et non la nudite."
