New Releases

"My folio location was unfortunately limited to my bedroom for the sake of my housemate. My shoot was done over two days Which I mostly spent hoping the weather would stay nice enough to continue shooting. While I was excited to start my shoot I was nervous as I've never been super comfortable in my body and have never attempted to look at it in a positive light. It took maybe 20 minutes for that to fade out of my mind and I started having fun. I think the most nerve inducing thing was that my window can be seen from at least 3 other apartment buildings. One of my neighbours definitely saw me dragging my chair around..."

"I took these photos on a trip and it was amazing! I took advantage of every second to capture the most beautiful moments. I took advantage of the waterfall to take pictures and realized how light and renewed I felt. With each photo I took, I felt like I was more and more my own person. Spontaneous smiles, lightness when picking the flowers, the fresh air hitting my face. I actually felt even more beautiful. I'm loving myself more and more. Loving to know a little more about my body, about my imperfections. Understanding, that I'm beautiful in my own way."

"I've been looking forward to doing an outdoor shoot for so long, and I've just moved to the country where I'm surrounded by forests, the perfect opportunity! I had to do some bush bashing to find a secluded spot away from any paths, and even then saw some mountain bikers, and they saw me! After I moved to a quiet spot I heard a rustling in the bushes, thinking it was a bunny I went to investigate, and found a little echidna instead!!! Despite the nervousness of being caught, and also all the sticks grazing my butt, it felt so good to be naked out in the open, and so so good for my soul!"

"I wanted to catch the last warm days of this fall and go swimming no matter what! Since I went to a secluded nude beach, this was also a great opportunity to shoot myself in a stunningly beautiful wild place. So I did it! There were very few people, and I could hide behind big stones when needed. There, I played with leaves and reeds, trying to get intriguing snaps. Somehow, this nudity looks innocent, doesn't it? Reminds me of Eve. Then I went to the sea. The water was very cold and you will see how my skin tightened and nipples stuck out. And it was energizing! Once again I realized how much creative work inspires me. I felt inspired, powerful, and playful for the whole week!"

"Whilst I was taking all the images, my mind was constantly switching and changing. I thought about the flexibility of my body and the angles of my face and neck I could capture. I could hear people walking around outside and it made these poses feel dangerous, squatting before the doors and using mirrors to reflect parts of my body that I really love - such as my boobs. After I'd finished shooting, I took some time to look at the journey of my photographs, seeing the expressions on my face change from sexy to laughter, to smiling, to expressionless. I layed down on my bed to do this and noticed in one of the mirrors that I was smiling at myself, the way someone smiles at their phone when they talk to a crush. I was truly crushing on me and I think that says a lot."

"Every year as my birthday approaches I make it my mission to reaffirm my love for myself. When I stumbled upon I Shot Myself, I thought it was the perfect opportunity to create a visual love letter to me. Body positivity and self love has been a rocky road for me and this week, turning 32 I found myself feeling more beautiful than ever. Every night I'd come home from work, get undressed, and start snapping. I've been running late to dinners, dates and appointments all week because I've been so caught up in the moment, embracing every inch of skin, every freckle, every line, all off me. I captured the essence of me in these photos; my power, my cheekiness, my elegance, my personality."

"I did this shoot at home, while my family was outside, walking. First of all, I was a little worried about getting the images right and making sure the lighting was correct, but in the process of taking all these pics I discovered the process to be really exciting! There were also some confusing moments... like when some guys who were working at the auto repair shop noticed me sitting at my window sill, taking nudes. But this fact made the process of making this folio even more spicy! At the end I noticed that I was smiling and really fond of the woman in these pics."

"There was an intention of highlighting the warmth and cozy vibe of the inside of the house, with warm colours and natural decor. The process of taking the shots outside was deeply grounding, as this was the first time I had been completely naked out in the forest (something I am very keen to continue). Walking barefoot, over a few brisk Autumn days in May taking these photos was exhilarating and an act of self love. Feeling the 10 degree air brush my naked body reminded me of how I am so connected to the Earth I walk upon."

"Even though I'm used to modeling, this was definitely something new for me. Usually for me there's the same poses I do over and over again, so in order to shoot for this ISM, I had to get out of my comfort zone. But it was exciting, especially shooting outside nude, unfortunately a neighbor almost saw me so I had to be careful. But I can't lie, that excited me even more. It definitely made me feel more empowered about my body afterwards when I looked at the pictures. Overall it was an epic experience and I'd love to do it again."

"Me gustó mucho hacer las fotos, experimentar con diferentes poses y hacerlas naturales, me pareció una experiencia muy bonita. Las tomé a mi habitación y a mi living. Tener las ventanas abiertas para que entrara la luz fue divertido, ya que sentí que mis vecinos podrían estar espiando. Una de mis fantasias es que me espien desnuda! / I really liked taking these photos, experimenting with different poses and making them natural, I thought it was a very nice experience. I took them in my room and in my living room. Having the windows open for light was fun as I felt like my neighbors might be spying. One of my fantasies is that they spy on me being naked!"

"I did my shoot in my family's house, after many years of wild adventures abroad I have recently come home. Of course I had to utilise stealth secrecy, waiting for moments everyone had left the house to bare all and snap some photos. At one point I did unexpectedly hear the key turn in the lock of the front door and leaped up with great haste to throw on a strategically place dressing gown. This shoot for me was liberating and raw, I very much enjoyed the fact I was in control, both the photographer and model also the individual freedom of expression this project allows."

"I like to feel free without clothes, but I live in an apartment with neighbors and not so often I can undress. I decided to take these pictures when most of the people left and I locked myself in my room. I was able to be alone with myself and my body. I work as a photographer and I myself know how important it is to open up in front of the camera, you need to relax and surrender to the process. That's exactly what I did, it was easy and pleasant for me to take pictures. After the shooting, I was in a great mood and I was happy to go back to my usual business."

"This folio was taken in my personal temple of love and healing on a beautiful spring day. It is my sacred place filled with all the things I love the most and where I go to connect to the divine and practice my spirituality of joy and devotion to the deep feminine mysteries. The shoot was such a beautiful opportunity to express my true self and celebrate the gift of my body and erotic purity and innocence. I had a wonderful time doing it and felt very happy and free and wonderfully alive. This shoot was really special to me and really captures my colourful and magical essence as a being."

"I had my 60's vintage swimming suit on and wanted some photos with it but it ended up becoming an ISM shoot instead! I sat in this pretty blow up shell and felt how others looked at me and I think the attention made me wanna show more. The weather was good but then the rain came. It didn't stop me from shooting though, I felt like I was in a movie and I enjoyed seeing how people stayed at the beach even though the blue sky and sun was gone ;)."

"I was so nervous to start with and all my photos were blurry because I was shaking. After a few shots I relaxed and started to really enjoy it. I've never looked at myself in such a positive light before. I realised as I went through that I was starting to get turned on by my own body and my own photos, which I really didn't expect! I like to use toys in my sex life so I used a dildo in some of the photos, and had a lot of fun with that. I was slightly concerned the neighbours could see into the garden, but if anything that made it more exciting."
