For the final Sinful Sunday of 2019 and this decade I thought I would look back through all the images I have posted this year for this meme and pick my top 12 Sinful Sunday images of 2019. This was harder then a thought. Firstly it meant leaving images like My Cunt is Art, Always be Batman and A True Friend out because even though they are some of my favourite from this past year they were not posted as Sinful Sunday images. Secondly it meant picking between all the images I had posted for Sinful Sunday this year and that proved to be a real challenge. How on earth do you pick?
The answer is you spend hours and hours looking through all the possible options and finally end up with 14 images that you can’t pick between and so decide to ignore your own brief and stick with that 14. To be honest I could have picked at least 2 more but that seemed to be straying towards just picking them all so sadly Ripe and Luscious and Let it rain (of the beautiful Katteroo) didn’t quite make it to my final cut. But the following 14 did for various reasons…
It’s Raining Men – Because every time I look at it it makes me giggle. Not just because it shows me getting caught but also perfectly illustrates just how unobservant people can be.
Revive – I am super proud of this shot. I think it captures the sensual beauty of spring and being able to enjoy being outdoors naked.
Profound Care – This is one of those in the moments shot I took on phone. No planning or thought just just seeing an image and snapping it. I love how it turned out and the quote was hugely meaningful to me at the time because I was mostly definitely rattled when I took this.
Not all maps are what they seem – I LOVE maps but I also picked this image because it was definitely my best editing artwork of the year.
Sirens – Simply because it speaks to my absolute love of corrupting religion and finding graveyards incredibly erotic places
A Cascade of Hair – Because it captures my long hair so beautifully and I never expected it to ever grow this long.
Serenity – I am a summer person and this image is my favourite summer picture from this year.
Arranging Pinks – It might look simple but this was a tricky shot to get and I am super proud of how it turned out and that I picked the perfect shade of Gladioli for it.
What is best for me… – Interestingly the only black and white image that I picked. I have also noticed it has been a very colour focused year for me and I have hardly posted any black and whites but this one I love.
A Date with a Glass Dildo – Also taken on my phone but with new settings that I had only just discovered that resulted in an image that looks as good as any taken on my DSLR. I just think it is a really beautiful image with lots of different layers to it and a bit like the bath one it was an in the moment shot.
Fire Burn – Posted for Halloween but the truth of this image is that is was taken in the summer on a truly horrendous night between Michael and I. He stormed out. I reached for me camera and found some sanity in the calm methodical task of taking self portraits. This one I am truly proud of as I am of myself for weathering the traumatic evening.
Stepping Out – Not the best picture here but possibly one of the most meaningful to me because I took it in Miami and it captures how that trip was a turning point in my year and where I truly realised what I needed to do in order to be happy again.
In the Wild – Because these women are amazing and this day was one of the happiest of my whole summer.
Tangled – Because I love Christmas decorations and no list would be complete without at least one festive image but mostly because technically I totally nailed this image.

I feel like my photography has suffered this year if I am honest. Actually that is true of a lot of my creative self but my photography in particular has taken a big hit. I have not been out to take pictures since the Poppy field ones and that is something I want to fix in 2020. I need to schedule some actual time for me and my camera rather than just slotting it in now and then. I also hope that 2020 will bring new sexual and kink experiences which will help to re-inspire my photography and hopefully I will also get the chance to maybe photograph some other people too but whatever happens I know my photography and particularly my self portrait photography is a huge part of my creative self and I am actually interested to see how it maybe evolves and develops in this new chapter of my life.
