I started modeling as an adult. It's a misconception that you should be in your teens to start modeling.

There is no such thing as being too old to pursue a dream. There are models in their 30s (like myself) and 40s and beyond, working and making a nice paycheck.

In my teens, with a friend as the photographer, I would do practice photo sessions, being silly and practicing posing.

Practice makes perfect!

My first professional photo session, I was VERY nervous.

Thankfully the other women were very positive and made me feel comfortable.

They helped to make me feel comfortable and gave me some great tips.

Your confidence exudes in your photos.

I admire all mediums of art.. paint, sculptures, photography, technology.

What we are able to see with our eyes and create with our hands is all art.

Art nude photography to me is about shapes; the focus is not on the attractiveness or sexual appeal of the subject.

Using the human form as you would with any other medium to create an idea or convey emotion.

Similar to body painting; the nudity is not the focus the final product is.

Clothing can create stereotypes, judgments and distraction.

We are all human naked.

My advice for young girls wanting to model would be if you want it, work for it and you can have it.

That not only applies to modeling but with life in general. Modeling is a hard industry to get into. You either have to have “the look” or be well connected to really make it to the top.

It takes a lot of time, hard work and patience to be a model. It took me years to finally meet the right person to jumpstart my career in modeling and at times I wanted to give up because I wasn’t seeing progress.

I’m glad I didn’t give up on my dream to be a model because it’s truly my passion. If you’re willing to put in the work and keep pushing through even when it gets tough, you will make it. It’s not going to happen overnight but once you get to a certain level in your career it’ll only motivate you to go harder until you get to the top.

Emilie - Inked French Model

I am attracted by the artistic nude.

I think there is nothing more beautiful than a woman laid bare in front of a goal.

The photo is above all, A SHARING, A PASSION.

I talk a lot with my photographers before working with them, they make me by their ideas and me of mine.

It is an exchange.

Que sean ellas mismas. Que no se dejen llevar por los cánones "establecidos", la diversidad cada vez se está implantando más en las pasarelas y la fotografía, la gente quiere ver mujeres reales en las que se puedan ver reflejadas, cada es como nace con más o menos kilos, estrías... pero todo es bonito. Así que mi mejor consejo que sean ellas mismas y que disfruten de su trabajo para así poder transmitir al espectador lo bonita que eres.

Let them be themselves. Do not get carried away by the "established" canons, diversity is increasingly being implemented in the catwalks and photography, people want to see real women in which they can see themselves reflected, each one is born with more or fewer kilos, stretch marks ... but everything is beautiful. So my best advice is to be themselves and that they enjoy their work so that they can convey to the viewer how beautiful you are.

Jode - I like to encourage body confidence

The pink paint shoot was one of my favourite projects I have worked on.

Myself and Jason (Phototrinity) brainstormed ideas for this paint shoot and spent about 2 months getting the resources for it and planning exactly what we wanted to do. This shoot was split into two main sets of photos. The first was fun, creative, bright colourful shots, creating interesting body shapes and focusing on detailed imagery.

The second was of a slightly darker setting, expressing mental health awareness. This set was created with the message of showing vulnerability and struggles with mental health such as anxiety, depression and BPD. This was a very powerful shoot for me and something I could really use to be expressive and channel all of my energy into.

The shoot in total took around 8 hours in the studio. It was super fun, very messy and a hot shower afterward was much appreciated!
