penny_f//"bloombalm"
"I thought that by incorporating a mirror into my shoot, it'd make it a hell of a lot easier to show off my beautiful body to you, rather than having to contort it into crazy positions. From now on, I know that I'll always be wandering about looking for places and thinking, 'I wanna get naked and shoot myself there!'"

ivana_weiner//"gingham_vixen"
"It was such a hot day but the water was ice cold. I could get all sweaty on the sand and then get cold with sudden nipple-boners in the water. It's so wonderful swimming naked. It's always locked up with sexual tension. I liked staying partially clad in gingham because it reminded me of a bygone era of 'nudie cuties' that were pretty innocent really, but sweet and alluring.”

juniper_j//"coquettish"
“Naked in my best friend’s living room, sprawled out on the couch with the windows wide open, I felt pretty fine. With a careful eye, you might catch a glimpse or two of the friend I mentioned hiding in the background.”

kristale//"shell_shock"
“I love photos and photography. I thought it was great I could be alone with the camera this way. It was a little constraining, but it was amazing. I know how to shoot myself and my best angles. At one point a policeman came to tell me that it is not such a great place to get naked, perhaps. Ha!”

urtica//"wild_lace"
I think William Carlos Williams knew Urtica somehow - maybe through a dream, or maybe she is every small white flower, every smile curved gently, patient as a tectonic shift. Her body ... no question of whiteness. Each part... a blossom... to which the fibers of her being stem ... until the whole field is a white desire. Yes, no question that he knew of her.

momo_chan//"be_mine"
"It was Valentines Day. I spent it alone in my apartment playing with the sunlight and my toys. I liked looking over my shoulder when I hung out the washing, careful not to flash my boobs at a passer by... but also really wanting someone to walk past and catch me at it."

allie_o//"notation_1" Video
We have high hopes for artprize winners, but Allie_O’s ISM video does nothing short of surpassing those expectations. Intimate and vulnerable, her offering is beautiful in a way that has nothing to do with mimicry. It’s only Allie O, just as she is, her voice and her body, perfect and real.

betsy_v//"safari"
“A few passing cyclists got a glimpse of me in the park but it didn't feel weird at all, just thrilling and funny, it made me wonder why we don’t all do it more often. Posing and trailing items across my body for different shots was quite a turn on. I felt so liberated and happy and that every girl should do this for themselves.”

kohen//"newsflash"
When the job market’s this tough, you gotta exhaust all the options before resigning yourself to a life of happy nude unemployment. Kohen hasn’t quite dropped her blue sharpie, but aimless scribbles on her newspaper and increasing states of undress indicate an impending change of heart.

malorie_knox//"dimthelights"
"I found that the positions and the costumes felt sexiest when part of me was covered. I was most turned on by the partially clothed photos - I found that to be more erotic. I also find necks and backs really sexy - the curve. In all people, the nape of the neck is really sexy."

brigitta//"inside_world"
"I challenged myself to stay on the window ledge, I'm sure my folio would be even better if I was a circus person! I shot in my study; it's the window I look out when I'm yearning for the outside world. I think you can see a few shots with my cupping marks."

claira//"petal_peep"
"I was outside and I felt more comfortable with my clothes off - being one with nature. I was first sitting on the ground, then got more into it and before I knew it, I was covered with dirt and had to brush off to take more photos! Shooting myself made me feel beautiful, the kind of beauty that can only come from within."

greenkat & octavius//"romp_n_roll_1"
Ever since Greenkat sent us her ISM video, our hearts were permanently hers - and she must be starting a collection, because she’s got Octavius’ heart too. It was obvious how much he loved her when he filmed her video - and it’s even more apparent when we see them interacting.

sky_v//"doppelganger"
"It all just came naturally, and using the mirror definitely made it easy to get my whole body in shot. I loved being able to experiment with it; holding it above me, splitting me in two and also sitting on it, which helped me to see my body in many different ways that I never had before.”
