Join the Movement

 

We are a community of women breaking the mold and inspiring others to do the same. The intimate experience of the photo shoot, naked in nature, creates a safe space to access and inquire about the image that was imposed on us by our family, society, ourselves. We remove the layers to allow for the real woman to truly emerge: one that is enough, just as she is. Sharing these images contributes to making a change in a world filled with images of women whose bodies are regulated and objectified.

 
 
Relationship is what makes a forest a forest.

HOW TO JOIN

Are you ready to set yourself free? Get on our mailing list so we can send you our latest inspirations and photos from our travels! If you are interested in participating, please let us know your location and why you want to be a part of Women With Trees.

Currently there are only 10 spots left and we are looking for women with very unique stories to tell. As representation is at the forefront of this book, we want to fill those spots with the stories of women whose voices are silenced the most. We still need to hear from women who are disabled, women who are sex workers and women of color over the age of 65. However, all are welcome to submit! We want all of you with us on this journey!

Making a change is this simple, just fill out the form below.
Melanie, the photographer will contact you directly, and your information will never be shared.


 
 
 

 
As human beings, we are part of the whole stream of life. We have been human beings for perhaps a million years. But life itself — passes on something of itself to other life — that mysterious entity that moves and is aware of itself and its surroundings, and so is distinguished from rocks or senseless clay — [from which] life arose many hundreds of millions of years ago. Since then it has developed, struggled, adapted itself to its surroundings, evolved an infinite number of forms. But its living protoplasm is built of the same elements as air, water, and rock. To these the mysterious spark of life was added. Our origins are of the earth. And so there is in us a deeply seated response to the natural universe, which is part of our humanity...
