✈️ Sky High Confessional #3 – My First Time Nude Photoshoot
So, today’s confession isn’t about sex. It’s about one of the turning points that led me to be here doing OF today.
Sure, I’d sent a few nudes before, to guys I was flirting with online, but this was different. This was with a real photographer with a real camera, not just my iPhone balancing on the windowsill! It was March 2021, and I’d been chatting with this awesome guy, Dylan, about doing a shoot together. I was living in Melbourne at the time, and he knew this abandoned warehouse out of town that had great light really interesting industrial vibes.
We met there one weekend. I’d been training at home during lockdown and was feeling proud of the shape I was in, with a few extra gains and a bit more confidence. I hadn’t really discovered thongs yet, so I packed some party shorts and a couple of jockstraps that I had in my wardrobe...
The plan was to get some content for instagram, but Dylan made me feel completely at ease, and we played around with different poses and outfits and when he suggested we try a few nude shots, I felt so keen. I’d never done anything like that before, and it felt like a huge step for me to strip down completely and show off my butt.
That moment stuck with me. Seeing those photos later got me thinking that maybe I should show off my butt a little more. Maybe this was something I could lean into, not just for attention, but as a kind of self-expression.
Dylan and I ended up shooting together a bunch more times after that, and I’ve worked with plenty of photographers since. But that day was the start, the moment I realised being seen can be empowering, not scary.
Ps. Scroll to check out some of the pics from that shoot >>> 😛
Confession time.
When was the first time you felt comfortable exploring your sexuality, your nudity, or that cheeky side of yourself?
