I love photographing the shape of pregnant women. I always have, since my early twenties. I think I am passionately drawn not just to the shape of her belly, but the shape-shift of her breasts, sometimes a woman's face changes, and yes I even love the plumpness of swollen ankles... Read More

The effects of depression has been on my mind a lot over the past few days. I think it has been on a lot of our minds as we mourn our beloved Robin Williams. And I think it is... Read More

Three now. Three times I have been dumped by someone I loved so deeply. First time was my first love, when I was 15, he was 25. He left me for a super cool french woman much older than I and way more accomplished. I think I cried for... Read More

I asked Kiersten if she would model for me after I found our that she tandem breastfeeds her newborn and her 2 year old. I was struck by her calmness as a mother, her gorgeousness and her lovely tattoo circling one of her nipples... Read More

Today is my 35th birthday, but more important, to me at least, is the celebration of the one year anniversary completion of my Kickstarter Campaign for my book which launched me into an unexpected euphoria of blessed attention and a slightly frantic Body Positive Stardom. Because I took some images of myself nude... Read More

When I was a sophomore in high school, I signed up to go study abroad through the Rotary Club for my junior year in Argentina. I went to all the meetings, paid all my fees by babysitting and was ecstatic for... Read More

When I first decided to be photographed for ABBP, it was because I wanted to have done something my kids could be proud of me for, something inspirational. It turned out to be so much more than that.

Erin’s story starts when she was 23 years old and told she would not be able to have children. Her desire to be a mother had been a strong one and this news was heartbreaking. She had to have her tubes removed that year.

Reflecting on life after being hit by a car, Claire wrote: "Of course, I cringed. In fact, I felt like crying. Looking through the 77 photos Natasha had just sent me, it seemed all of my worst fears were coming true. It was painted clearly there before me in the black and white images on my computer screen.

My body is far from perfect. I have put it through the ringer. Stretch marks from 2 children, bumps and bruises from sports, and a few surgeries along the way. I never realized how important my body was until I was 16 and it took the beating of a lifetime.

A few days ago, I received this beautiful and heart-wrenching email from a woman. Her name is Bek and she wrote:
