"I’ve heard about vulva shoots before and when Alex asked I was super excited to participate! I think it’s so important that vulva owners see and know that everyone is different and that theirs is normal! I felt so comfortable and included throughout the whole process and couldn’t recommend it more! I’m so thankful to have taken part in the project and feel more confident in myself since 🫶🏻" - H
"This was my second shoot with Alex, and he made this experience so comfortable and relaxing. I couldn’t have found a better person to help me embrace my self love journey! I was really anxious about being apart of the normal is diverse series for a long time, in my head it felt like a much bigger risk and much more vulnerable than a normal bodyscape shoot, which came quite easily to me. Over the years I’ve had quite a rocky relationship with my vulva and sexuality in general, from being sexually assaulted to going through a termination, in some ways I definitely blamed myself and my body. The normal is diverse series reminded me that those things were not my fault, and certainly not my bodies fault, that my body is powerful and amazing, even if it’s not societies version of “pretty”, my body and my vulva are beautiful. and so is everyone else’s. This shoot has allowed me to feel more at peace with who I am and given me space to truly love every inch of myself, as it is. Thank you Alex" - E
"When first thinking about a vulva shoot I was extremely self conscious, it’s such an intimate part of the body and I was extremely worried . But after seeing Alex’s website and seeing the many different types and shapes, I agreed. It was extremely powerful and beautiful experience that made me really embrace and accept how that looks and know that unique is beautiful" - M
Participating in a vulva shoot was an incredibly empowering experience. I felt extremely comfortable the entire time considering it was on my first nude shoot. 
I think everyone goes through a phase of thinking their vulva is ugly, but being a part of this series particularly made me realise that my vulva is a work of art, It’s something that should be celebrated instead of criticised. I feel incredibly lucky to be a part of ‘Normal is Diverse’. - G
“I am still shocked I had the courage to do the vulva shoot as I get really insecure about it, but as soon as Alex opened the door all the anxiety left my body and I have never been so excited to do a shoot. Every vulva is unique and beautiful and I’m so grateful after this experience because now I can look at myself with confidence and say I love my vulva.” - J
"Growing up I remember seeing a video about women looking at the vulva for the first time and sharing their experiences and fears about theirs looking different. While this is never something I thought I’d do, I think it’s a great way to share the diversity and beauty of each individual person." - M 
"Leaning into the vulnerability that comes with doing the diverse is normal series there’s a moment when I looked down and felt empowered. Being able to see my vulva in a new light and having the power unleashed within me, seeing the beauty that is me. Seeing a part of me that I’ve always had in new eyes with no judgment only appreciation and looking at myself as a piece of art work. I’m so thankful for creating and allowing all this to happen during my shot, Alex is amazing!" - C
"I recently participated in a vulva shoot with Alex. When he asked for people to shoot with I thought, why not? This is not something I would have ever seen growing up, I hope that projects like this help vulva owners feel comfortable within themselves. 
Alex was lovely to work with. He spent a lot of time ensuring I was comfortable and included me in the process which I appreciated." - T
“Because of how many things on social media influence young girls (and everyone) I’ve always been self conscious of how I looked  and usually avoided looking. As I’ve grown older, I’ve come to realise and accept that everyone is different. Going into the shoot, I didn’t think it would change anything but actually looking at the photos I feel more content about my vulva and I’m so thankful for the experience ❤️” - Z
"I’m so thankful to have taken part in your project. It’s so incredibly liberating to showcase and celebrate the diversities of the vulva, something many of us are ashamed of. Your calm, comforting, professional nature are apparent. I felt so at ease during the session. From the casual banter throughout, music requests, and going through the photos afterwards, allowing me choose my favourites. I’m grateful to have done this, and absolutely would again. My vagina is a work of art ✨" - D
"Normal is Diverse was a series I was hesitant at first on doing, seemed like a lot to take on being completely vulnerable at the camera, but Alex made me feel so comfortable after numerous conversations and viewing the series I felt so at ease and made me fall in love with my own body seeing- not a single body is the same, that everyone is complete different and beautiful in their own way. It made me appreciate my own body and see the intricate details of my own self. Thank you Alex for making me see myself in a brighter light and love myself even more." - C
"I, like many women, have been taught to be disgusted and ashamed of our own vaginas. As a child growing into my teens, I really didn’t stand a chance. All the vulvas in media looked small, clean shaven and were always pink in tone. It saddens me now to think that as a young girl I didn’t even want to look at or touch my vagina. When I eventually grabbed a mirror out of curiosity, I didn’t like what I saw. It didn’t look how it was “supposed” to look. It has only been as I grew older that over realised how ridiculous that sounds. These photos remind me of how beautiful in detail and colour my vulva is. I have taken many steps to do so but I can say now, with confidence that I love my vulva and could sit there staring at it for hours" - E
"I remember when I was 16, I first started to to take notice that I didn’t have the picture perfect parts that you seem to see, and the idea that people might find out terrified me. It got the point where I’d sit with a pair of scissors, and try work out if I could cut my labia to make it prettier or more ‘normal’. If only id known! It was normal and it doesn’t matter, no one cares  how your vulva (or whatever you have) looks! I wish younger me knew this, and could see me now doing this shoot. Thank you to Alex for doing this, hope more people who felt scared to be different like I did realise through this that they are normal and perfect" - L
"I did my first and only vulva shoot (so far) with Alex. In the past I had so much shame around what it looked like and I used to think it was an "ugly" area. Alex was very professional and helped me to feel comfortable throughout the entire shoot and the shots we created together are amazing! I look at the photos now and realise my vulva is artistic and the shoot has gifted me so much more confidence and appreciation for the delicacy of the vulva. It's such a beautiful and perception shifting experience and I cannot recommend it enough to anyone who is ready to view themselves differently" - G
"When I first saw my vulva photos I thought, Wow, there's a lot going on there!  But taking part has changed me, I am more comfortable with my skin as a woman.  It's a pivotal experience to do something like this to help women feel more comfortable in their own skin. I used to think that my vulva doesn’t look right and ugly. Since doing this shoot, I’ve grown to love and appreciate my body. Thanks to Alex for helping me feel so comfortable with my skin." - T
"Having your vulva photographed is a surprisingly liberating experience. It's so intimate that not even. I new what it looked like in great detail. Since doing this shoot I've grown to love and appreciate my body and my womanhood so much more and have a new found confidence that is truly life changing ❤️" - O
