New Releases

Two of the earthiest mommas on ISM combine astral forces today in a duet that will make you feel grateful – for mommas, for the plants of the earth and the fish of the sea, and for the free spirits of ladies like them who are walking about naked with bovines the world over.

One of our favorite passtimes as ISM editors is to find interesting or confusing words in the dictionary and name folios with them. Today we have Sylvie's first ever folio, cunningly entitled Inamorata, meaning "a woman who loves or is loved" and isn't it just a perfect fit for this gorgeous blue-eyed wayfarer.

Tabatha makes like lichen and sticks to the trees in this playful folio shot in an enchanted forest near you. The textural contrasts between wood bark and smooth skin make a delightful segue into this narrative of Girl In Nature.

When hiking, one should always remember to pack a good scroggin or "trail mix" as most non-Australian/New Zealander's call it. Everyone eats the chocolate pieces first (unless you get a scroggin with that horrible carob rubbish) because nobody really wants to choke down bland nuts and seeds when you're traipsing through bushland. Djaz takes what's important on today's hike which is a delicious mix of sweets and skin. Now you've reached the top of the mountain you can kick back and enjoy the view.

Electralane gets all mixed media in this folio, and combines some fancy camera work with strips of natural beauty and those trademark sparkling eyes.

La_fi is an adventurous soul, and collects mementos from all of her various wanderings. She's given us a sample of them today and it reveals a great deal about her personal philosophy – 'Auderre Est Faccre' indeed, especially on that playground!

After viewing Ophelia's second contribution to ISM, I was convinced that someone had invented a time machine (most likely in the form of a Delorean or a telephone box) and returned with a starlet from the golden era of Hollywood. With rosy cheeks and beautifully coifed curls, Ophelia's ready for her close up mister DeMille.

Charla makes good use of some linear elements of housing construction to contrast with the curves nature gave her.

Pearline will forever be associated with the visually interesting – she knows how to capture your attention in even the simplest of scenes. Today she’s set up a rather quirky little scene and, whilst your eye might linger in its four corners for a time, you’re going to end up right where we did: on the girl in the ruffly blue dress.

Normally having no clothes to wear because it's laundry day would be a problem but in helena_laran's case it most certainly is not. Armed with a sexy pout and a pair of cut-offs, this gorgeous welsh vixen can make my white's whiter and my colour's brighter any day of the week.

Toby has taken some absolutley stunning shots here. The hazy sky makes the perfect balance of fill and key light that makes outdoor photography so much easier - but that's not to take anything away from Toby, who lists her motive for shooting herself as "to combine my two interests, photography and running around naked". Well everyone needs a hobby.

Cate is so crafty about the shots that she takes that this folio was three years in the making. It's a collection based on her proclivity for spontaneous self-portraiture, and there's something very sexy in the knowledge that she is constantly producing images like these, for no one in particular but herself.

I'd like to take a minute to once again praise the inventor of the sundress. Amen. Heartfelt gratitude aside, here is a truly pretty folio. Ness has the sweetest Mona Lisa smile I think I've ever seen and if you couple that with the aforementioned sundress, you've got one heck of a gorgeous photo shoot.

In all her freckled fairness, Miss_M presents herself to ISM once again. This time she's dropped the blues and gone for something a bit more formal, but it all looks good on the likes of her.

The nice thing about pale skin is the way it responds to all sorts of different light. Reegan explores this today by exposing her exquisite skin to several radiances and luminescences, and the result is quite dreamy, disjointed but pretty like a reverie.
