"I have a lot of mirrors. So I chose to shoot a lot of my pictures with them. I also have some great chairs, I didn't use all of them in my shoot, but they were a good way to make me feel less bedroom orientated and make me feel more creative and adventurous. I'm quite comfortable with my body, but getting older is pretty confronting as your youth starts to check out. So documenting my body on my own terms at this time was fun and interesting. If this had of been around when I was in my 20's, I would love to have done it and looked back on it now. So all I can say is DO IT NOW! Your future self will thank you for preserving your beauty and creativity so you can freeze this moment in time."

"When my partner and I go camping, I'll often find a beautiful secluded spot in nature and settle into naked yoga while he makes us coffee and enjoys the view(s). Both ISM and naked physical activities I find are fantastic for reminding me to be comfortable with my body and find pleasure in its abilities."

"This shoot felt like a luxurious experience. I had been staying at a backpackers for over a week and was very sick of not having my own space, so participating in ishotmyself seemed like the perfect excuse to get a motel by myself and enter full artist mode. I have been taking photos of myself for almost a decade now, so knew that I would produce some awesome photographs. I purchased some bananas and funky skull bracelets for some physical inspiration and began the shoot the next morning. I applied some glittery makeup I like to think made me look like some kinda sex warrior and began to worship myself with the camera. There was only one window in the motel so I definitely exposed myself to some fortunate passers by but I like to think that improved their day."

"I wanted to create something completely raw and authentic as I have a real thing for self expression and visual arts. I am usually quite the perfectionist but with this shoot I decided to let all of that go and just have fun in the moment. Being in total control of the shoot allowed me to just have fun and I found myself getting really into it. Covered in flower pollen with my lipstick all smudged I felt fully embraced and loved by myself in this moment. I am beyond excited to create further art in the future."

"While shooting myself for the second time I was definitely more comfortable taking selfies, I felt less pressure to get the perfect shot and didn't care about the bad angles. I've discovered how beneficial it is to take selfies now and then, reminding me to love the skin I'm in. I will make sure I keep it up. I am grateful to ISM as it has helped me realise this."

"It took me 20 years to love myself and I will never look back! Once I realized how truly beautiful it is to love yourself, fully, I fell in love with every part of life. We are divinity in physical form, Gods and Goddesses, here to embrace our sacred temple! What a sensual and powerful experience! We are the creators of our lives, to expand our love infinitely and give space for others to do the same. To channel our raw, primitive, and deep intuition of who we truly are. Then it all comes easily. I had the most magical time in this sacred space of freeing myself from all limitation and judgement, and enjoy this beautiful body and being! xo"

"I took these photos on my recent adventure to Alice Springs. I took a few up a hill near where I was staying at a converted camel stable and a few more out the back of a roadhouse where our car broke down. The landscape is so beautiful and wild up there, it is such an inspiring and freeing and grounding place, I had so much fun. It was also lovely to get a little sunshine on my vajayjay, and I wholly recommend it."

"This folio is a fun journey of how an idea starts and slowly fades into the abyss! I started trying to develop a theme for my post-sickness body, and being cut free of the mental chains and body-confidence issues which unfortunately (and inevitably) come after being sick! I used the hosiery to represent the thoughts I wear of being sick. I've worn it for the past year of remission and as my body makes changes to become healthy again, so do I have to change my mindset and the way I look at myself. I cut the stockings away as I cut away from my negative thought processes and embraced the new! For me, being healthy is being happy!"

"A few months ago, I dyed my hair blue. I was looking to try out something totally different, and the end result brought me so much joy! I feel like a chubby mermaid (hence the name), and it has changed the way I put my outfits together, it has changed the way I interact with people, and it has resulted in a lot of children smiling at me when they walk past me at the supermarket. I am about to change my hair colour again and wanted to immortalise my blue locks by sharing them with the lovely people of I Shot Myself! I hope you enjoy my beachy waves, my cute chubby tum, and my incredibly unhappy feline accomplice, Bingo. <3"
