“When do I feel the sexiest? When I’m feeling spiritually connected to my feminine energy,” says Renee Olstead. Returning to Playboy Plus for her third celebrity feature, Renee spends her day on the set of a laundromat as the photographer, Madeline Northway, and creative director, Heather Jone s, capture her. For Renee, posing in an environment like this is just as special for her as it is for us. “There’s a sort of magic that happens when you’re able to embody the most authentic version of yourself without [being] forced to split off your sexuality or creativity in that expression,” she says of posing nude. “It’s a chance for me to show how I view myself and encourage others to do the same!” To pose in this way is empowering, too, for Renee. “Female empowerment is expressing one’s sexuality and gender in a way that feels authentic and non-performative,” she says. “Shooting with an all female crew was one of my favorite shoots I’ve ever done. Everyone on the shoot was so talented, and I loved how much input I had.” Check out all of Renee Olstead’s features right here, on Playboy Plus!
