The Magazine
The launch issue of Quite Delightful’s magazine is a 360 page publication printed on a mix of uncoated and coated papers with thread-sewn binding that is left exposed. The publication features many photographers from the United States, as well as France, Germany, Holland and even as far afield as China and, of course, from the UK too.
Alongside the essays of photography, Quite Delightful also sets out a number of articles on sex and sexuality from a female point of view.
Monographs
Both with each issue of the magazine and as stand-alone publications, The Quite Delightful Project also aims to publish monographs of one photographer’s erotic image-making; primarily to showcase one cohesive body of work, but occasionally to detail work across an artist’s whole career.

Return to topJohn Stoddart: Portraits & Polaroids
In the 80s and 90s John Stoddart’s photography was a defining aspect of UK magazine publishing. His opulent editorials of celebrities in exotic locations (usually nude, or wearing the most exquisite lingerie) made for many memorable publishing events, but many other images remained unpublished…

Return to top'I Confess'
In our desire to create an adult magazine that is not only frank and fearless, but also genuinely erotic, the Quite Delightful team recognise that word-based depictions of women’s sexuality are just as important as the equally arousing image-making that the publication is already well-endowed with; and to this end, have challenged each other to recount one of their own most memorable – or shocking – experiences.
There is also a small quantity of ‘I Confess’ booklets available to purchase separately, which you can buy here:
