New Releases

Don't miss this one. Stunningly creative shots and camera angles make Mylah's surf exposé a celebration of vitality, sun and waves. That big grin rivals the beauty of the beach as she paddles out to sea, naked as a mermaid, with her trusty go-pro by her side. When Mylah is happy, we're happy - so really, it's just a great day here at HQ.

"So my first day of shooting myself was horrible!!! My body looked ugly to me, on every single picture. So I deleted them all and started all over again the next day. I went out, lied under a tree, looked up into the sky and relaxed... and a love relation ship with my body began. I started enjoying the beauty I saw - natural beauty and imperfection..."

"Two builders spotted me posing naked on the balcony. Feeling embarassed, I quickly ran inside. I could see them on the phone and was actually scared that they were ringing the police for indecent exposure! I ended up confronting them downstairs that I was doing an art project, they completely brushed it off and asked me if I was in apartment 14, as they wanted to fix the window."

"C'était super de faire ces photos avec mon copain, on ne s'était jamais pris en photo nus tous les deux et on s'est beaucoup amusés. Nous sommes très complices et partager ce moment coquin a été un vrai plaisir, accompagné de sa dose d'excitation car ce n'est plus un strip tease à la caméra que l'on fait mais tout un jeu avec l'Autre dont la caméra est témoin. Très excitant. Nous avons fini ce shooting coquin en extérieur, pour pousser à son paroxysme l'excitation et la folie de l'instant !"-Lena_D

"The hammock is my little haven, despite it actually being my housemate's. Out amongst the beautiful garden, it is tranquil and relaxing. I have adopted it as my own and love nothing more than the feeling of the breeze swinging me to and fro whilst laying in it. Sometimes I'll get a friend in there with me (cos it's quite roomy) and see how much we can swing before we nearly fall out. I obviously didn't go to that exciting extreme when shooting though, since I had a new exciting (and naked) adventure to undertake."

"I shot this folio in the recent winter sunshine of my backyard in the countryside of Oregon, following the light from the meadow to the barn to the creek. I was thinking about the ways in which my sense of eroticism is deeply intertwined with my passion for land, queering gender, and working with a set of magical tools (homemade rope, junk jewelry, lace, a hatchet, dirty books, fur, knife, heels) that are I find inspiring for playing with power. I felt really excited about the process of making these images! It was fun to find ways to depict my body's desire as it exists within this context of genderqueer femme adornment."

"Us Brits are usually considered quite prim and proper, but today I decided to break the rules, and get a little messy. It was the perfect day! The sun was out and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. I pulled out a blanket and all the fruit from the kitchen, with the intention to spend the day sunbathing in my back garden! Who knew you could have so much fun with a bunch of grapes and some cherries?"

"All the palm trees surrounding me, along with the bright blue sky just itching to come out on this beautiful Spring day, were a huge inspiration for me. It was a great feeling getting outside in the nude on a such a warm day... what could be better! The next day it absolutely poured down with rain so I'm lucky I got to make the most of it when I did!"

"I always found the beach comforting. I wanted this shoot to reflect the evolution in my attitudes towards my body, from Catholic conservatism right through to stripper exhibitionism! I brought along my cross earrings, and attempted to subvert their traditional connotations. I wanted to turn away from the exotic dancer-style poses, which strip women of their autonomy by placing them into patriarchal ideals. In the end, I just had fun with it, tried to portray an image of me as I see myself. Thats about as naked and vulnerable as you can get, and yet I only feel empowered by the experience."

"I practice yoga daily. It has opened me up, both physically and mentally. I am amazed by the body, what it can do, how it can feel and how we can communicate and understand ourselves so much more intensely when we connect with this physical, transient entity. I tried to include some of this in my shoot because it is so important for me and how I understand my body."

Maria_W works hard - we can't help but be impressed at the gung-ho attitude with which she tackles her friend's garage. Lucky for us, her very talented camera-person is just as gung-ho - a little too much so, in fact. Sometimes in life, a girl just wants to clean a garage naked for a few minutes without any kind of audio-visual equipment following her around. We understand.

"I went to a park to do this photoshoot, there's someone walking there, but I take the pic quickly! Under a slide, at swing.. Near there be a group of guys skating but I think don't saw me doing the pics. I played with different perspectives and shadows... it be really funny doing something like that and risky, someone could catch me in a moment!!"

In Japan, I'm learning to belly dance. This is American tribal style makeup and costume. The accessory is Afghan antique. I'm not good at sports but I see belly dance and is amazing so I want to try. I learn belly dance for two years and I sometime dance in restaurant and club in Japan."

"Fuimos a un dia de pesca en un hermoso lago. Eramos 2 parejas. En un momento decidi alejarme del grupo y detras de unas rocas comenze a quitarme la ropa para hacer las fotos. Mezcla de emocion, locura y adrenalina, miedo a ser descubierta por los demas, pero con mucha excitacion por lo que estaba haciendo."

"This was in a little forest at the bottom of the garden, where I grew up in Ireland. I used to run around naked as a little nipper in this forest, so I thought it would be fun to relive it in a different way as an adult. I used to chase fairies down here as a child but I didnt see any today. I did get tangled up in some magical spider webs though."
