CHELSEA_D 

ARTISTS STATEMENT
I've been on a bit of a journey to recover from obsessive dieting and accept my body the way it is for about a year now. I had been thinking for a while about taking some nude photos to celebrate my growing body confidence when a friend told me about ISM, it was exactly what I was looking for. I wanted my shoot to reflect my body as it is - no sneaky poses or angles to only show the bits I like or the bits deemed 'hot'. And I wanted the shoot to convey the way I'm starting to feel about my body: that it is soft and inviting, utterly unique and that its the vessel that carries me and my personality.
