New Releases

"I took these photos in my bedroom. It was my day off so I wanted a new experience. Let me tell you right away, it wasn't my first nude shoot, but it was essentially my first full-fledged one on my phone. Even though I had done some nude selfies for a guy before, but thanks to the requirements of this shoot, I came up with a lot of new angles. During the shoot, I was admiring myself and my nudity a bit, and thinking about the many angles my boyfriend would appreciate! During the candid selfies, a neighbour rang the doorbell. It scared me a little, as I wasn't expecting anyone, but the adrenaline during the shoot helped energize me. I enjoyed seeing myself from different angles and got excited about how good the images were."

"When I did my first shoot I was a bit nervous and self conscious. In this shoot though I felt a lot more relaxed and was able to drop in more and have fun. I did the shoot over the weekend at my partner's house. It was a new experience because he was also in the room. I could imagine how interesting it would be for him to see me take the photos and be a little silly. I was a little nervous going outside because we were at his parent's house and they could walk out any moment so I found myself running back to the room! During the shoot I was thinking about how proud I am for how far I have come with being comfortable in my skin and sharing myself with the world. And I remind myself that I am a woman. I am beautiful, and my sexuality is my own to experience. I am a fun, silly and quirky person, so being able to incorporate this part of me in my sexuality really brings me joy. I hope you enjoy my photos x."

"Estoy de vacaciones en Bolivia, y encontre una cabana hermosa en un bosque del tropico. Una tarde todos se fueron a pasear y aproveche para hacer una sesion de fotos, me habia olvidado de la libertad que siento al hacerlo, ver mi cuerpo desnudo, imaginar como me ven los demas, fantasiar con eso. Me di cuenta que es un acto de amor propio ya que me hace conectar con mi erotismo y empoderamiento interno. Senti mas adrenalina que la primera vez ya que no era mi casa, Me gusta esto de encontrar locaciones nuevas :). / I am on vacation in Bolivia, and I found a beautiful cabin in a forest in the tropics. One afternoon everyone went for a walk and I took the opportunity to do a photo session, I had forgotten the freedom I feel when doing it, seeing my naked body, imagining how others see me, fantasizing about it. I realized that it is an act of self-love since it makes me connect with my eroticism and internal empowerment. I felt more adrenaline than the first time since it was not my house. I like this thing about finding new locations :)."

"Cela faisait un certain temps que je réfléchissais à prendre part à ce projet. Ma chambre baigne dans les rayons de soleil le matin, c'était une journée ensoleillée donc j'ai saisi l'occasion d'autant plus que le temps de est peu fiable. J'essayais d'être moi-même et de profiter de ce moment de connexion avec mon corps. C'est définitivement une expérience enrichissante d'être le modèle et le photographe en même temps, ça vous fait réfléchir à ce que vous essayez de partager à travers ces photos. Après avoir pris les photos, quand je les regardais, je me sentais à l’aise avec mon image, un sentiment qui selon moi n'a pas de prix. / It has been some time since I started thinking about being part of this project. My bedroom gets plenty of fabulous natural light and it was a sunny day so I seized the opportunity as the weather is currently pretty unreliable. I was trying to be very much myself and enjoy that moment connecting with my body. It's definitely an interesting experience to be the model and the photographer at the same time, it makes you reflect on what exactly you're trying to share through those pictures. After the shoot, when I was looking at the photos I felt comfortable with my image which is a priceless feeling."

"I saw that it was a good day to hang my washing outside on the line, instead of putting it in the dryer like I usually do, but I didn't end up putting it all out. I'm a free baller when I'm home alone, so my instincts kinda took over. I had created the perfect scene, the lighting was generous and having a plain white sheet as a backdrop, it was too good of a day and location for me not to shoot myself naked. I have a few visual scars on my stomach from a surgery I got last year, which was meant to cure my chronic illness of endometriosis, but sadly it has not. Doing this shoot and being able to embrace my body and my scars has really helped me come to terms with the fact that this illness is going to affect me in everyday life and I can't let it stop me from doing normal every day things. I felt a lot more connected to myself by doing this, and I'm feeling a lot better with going into the next chapters of my life."

"I shot this ISM folio in a hotel room while my friend was out at the store shopping. There was nice lighting and I thought it would be the perfect time. I was thinking about how sexy the photos looked, and how excited I am for people to see my photos. Luckily, my friend did not walk in while I was shooting, but there was the possibility. I was nervous to take the photos at first, but as I took them, I got more comfortable and creative with posing. I really enjoyed how the photos turned out, and I think they show my serious and also silly side at times."

"I was so excited for this shoot, I wanted it to be outside and the rain that was predicted held off for the first hour. After playing in my forest down near my house it finally started to drizzle so I walked through my garden to the bell tent I recently bought. After taking a few shots I decided I wanted some mirror photos too, so I ran inside to grab my mirror. I loved shooting in the bell tent, it was so warm lying on top on all the blankets in there and listening to the rain fall was the perfect music. I also really liked the lighting as it was so soft and warm. I'm definitely going to have another photo shoot in here sometime."

"The approach I took to this shoot was really centred about self care and self love. It had been a while since I took some time out for myself just to lie on my bed, connect with my body, meditate, and journal so I decided to do this at the same time as the shoot! It was one of the most relaxing times I've had in a while and was a great excuse to have a little escape from the work I'm usually doing. I think there's often so much pressure to use your time "productively" at the expense of really spending time with yourself instead. I just loved appreciating the simplicity of the present while touching and giving love to my body. I hope this came through in the pictures!"

"I always take care of my plants in the morning. It was very sunny today and I decided to warm up during my favorite activity. Taking off my shorts, T-shirt, panties, the sun pleasantly touched my skin. I miss summer so much! I like when the body and flowers are next to each other in the photos. It's so natural and beautiful. I decided to take a picture of myself. It's so exciting. I didn't notice how time passed. At some point, I even got hot and I poured water on myself. I thought suddenly someone would see me in the window, but I was so passionate about my flowers and photos. I hope you have a sunny and pleasant morning as well!"

"I shot these photos in my bedroom over three afternoons in late February. I live on a first floor apartment and wanted to get the best lighting possible. I was reluctant to shoot with my blinds wide open, but by the end of the third afternoon, I didn't feel exposed anymore, I felt liberated. At the beginning of my shoot, I felt vulnerable to be in my own skin as I have always considered myself to be un-photogenic and I have zero experience holding a camera - especially for the angles this shoot requires. I don't know if it's just me, but as you scroll through my shoot, you can see me become more comfortable and confident. All in all, I'm so thankful to be apart of something as special as ishotmyself. A unique project which captures a woman's femininity, self identity and self love. Beautifully iconic."

"I did this photo shoot in my apartment, it was the first half of the day. I looked in the mirror and my reflection was attractive, I felt good. I wanted to put on ordinary clothes, take a couple of simple but attractive photos, I wanted to relax both body and soul. I took out my phone and started taking photos, changing poses with each shot, I plunged into excitement and did not want to stop. Looking at the photos in my underwear, I thought why not do it without it? It's so beautiful, attractive, you can see every line of the body, and at that moment I probably felt the sexiest. Looking through these photos, I received a unique pleasure, my eyes seemed to light up while viewing the photos...how can a woman's body be so seductive?"

"Hi I'm Maple, it's been a while since I've done a shoot. I wanted to celebrate my beautiful body as I am BRCA1 and I have to have a preventative mastectomy soon. I'm making the most of my lovely boobs before I have to say goodbye. It's going to be really tough as I've also felt that my breasts were part of my identity in a way. It's been nearly 20 years since my first shoot and I definitely feel less confident in my body but one day I know I'll look at these photos with pride and admiration. We need to celebrate nakedness. Nakedness is normal and clothes are weird. Ageing is a privilege. x"

"For this new folio I took photos in two different settings. One morning I woke up late at my boyfriend's house, he was out working and the house was quiet, just me and his puppy. The beautiful lighting and warmth in the room inspired me to begin with the photo shoot, so I prepared some tea, put my favorite show on in the background, and found the most comfortable places to start. And for some of the photos I shoot at my house, in my favorite room, full of plants, books, and little ceramic animals. It was a cold, rainy morning and I had goosebumps all over my body, so occasionally I had to cover myself to get warm again. I'm thankful, I'm growing new perspectives about myself."

"I thought I'd take the opportunity of a nice sunny day to take these pictures in my backyard. It was still a little cold outside, but standing in the sun and soaking up the rays warmed me right up. It was a little strange being naked outside and taking all these photos, since that's not something you do every day but I loved being surrounded by nature in my most natural state. The lemon tree was a nice pop of color that I thought worked well, especially in the pictures where the sky is reflected. It was also strangely liberating taking pictures in somewhat awkward angles, some that you wouldn't normally do or see, but having these pictures turn out so great and feeling confident in them. I thought I would feel more uncomfortable doing this, but actually really enjoyed myself and had fun with it and being creative."

"Hey everyone! I hope you enjoy my photos as much as I enjoyed taking them :). I shot these at home, my apartment is small and not very private! So I tried my best to take the pictures without anyone catching me haha. I took some out on the balcony, in my lounge room and bedroom. I would have liked to take more, outdoors perhaps, but I am a busy Mum and I work, so it was a bit hard to find the time. Always cramming too much into my week! Haha. It is a rainy day today, so it made for some interesting shots - I might try and get some rain drops on my breasts outside."
