ForMe! is a fine art nude photography project focused on empowering those women who have lost agency, through sculptural, intimate portraiture. This is not about objectification or idealization – it’s about relevance and presence. It’s an invitation to step into the light, to own the space unapologetically, and to challenge the narrow conventions of visibility, beauty, and worth.
Too often, women slip quietly from view with each birthday that passes – no dramatic story, no heroic struggle, but simply fading into the background. Once celebrated as vital, but now quietly overlooked. I see you.
ForMe! exists to shatter that invisibility.
This is for those women who cry silently so as not to disturb anyone, whose dreams and aspirations have been casually cast to the wind. For those who have silently supported others, asking for nothing in return, while existing largely unseen in the shadows.
This is not just about those who have suffered a particular hardship or trauma, but about those whose presence has gone unremarked, whose voices echo only in memory and who feel like they are simply fading away – unnoticed.
ForMe! is not my project – it is your project. ForMe! is the start of your journey to reclaim your relevance. No performance. No script. Only your true self, as you are today.
In our collaboration, we will create a powerful portrait that is:
- Sculptural yet tender – each pose an act of reclamation.
- Minimal yet resonant – space for your silence and your strength.
- Rooted in trust, respect, and grace – so you can be seen without fear.
Together, we’ll build a body of images saying: “You are still here. You are enough, and you always will be.”
Seeking:
Women of any age – and I mean any – who are curious, courageous, and open to exploring their own relationship with visibility, vulnerability, and embodiment. No modelling experience is needed – what matters is a willingness to be present.
Working Together:
Sessions are conducted with sensitivity, professionalism, and a deep respect for personal boundaries. The atmosphere is collaborative – built on conversation, comfort, and creative exploration. Shoots will generally be based in the photographic studio in Aberdeen.
Feel free to bring a friend or chaperone, especially someone who understands the emotional nature of this work and can support your comfort. Your safety, your rhythm, your choice.
A Note on Artistic Nudity
Your nudity in ForMe! isn’t about exposure – it’s about authenticity. Stripped of society’s costumes and expectations, you stand in your raw, unfiltered self. You decide how much or how little to reveal; how to whisper your presence, or shout if from the rooftops. Every frame is guided by your comfort and consent.
There is no right or wrong way to be seen. In this space, shame is cast into the flames. Whether you choose the soft suggestion of skin or the bold declaration of erotic presence, your choice is sacred, one-hundred percent contained, and one-hundred percent your own. You decide how you are seen, and why, and I will hold that choice with professionalism, respect, and grace.
What You’ll Get:
As well as a set of edited digital images, suitable for creating small prints, participants will receive at least one high-resolution image or print for personal use.
Beyond the images, this is also a chance to participate in something larger: a conversation, a cultural moment, a spark. As part of the ForMe! or SeeMe! movement, empowering women of a certain age, participants may also receive an invitation to be featured in an eventual exhibition or publication – but never without their express permission of course.

What does it cost?
There is no fee to participate. This is not a transaction – it’s a collaboration. However, if you’d like to make a small donation to a women’s charity in recognition of the time and care involved, it’s always appreciated – but never expected.
