Get to know Kaitlynn Anderson, a vibrant, bold, warm model and content creator from Alpena, Michigan. “I am from the middle of nowhere in the country,” laughs Kaitlynn. “I am strong, independent and empathetic to my core. I’m the most understanding person you’ll ever meet and [also] the most hilarious.” We first met Kaitlynn at a casting call back in 2015, and now we’re thrilled to meet again. “Even at a younger age, Playboy resonated with who I was because it just felt like freedom,” shares Kaitlynn. “I had a psychic tell me that I would never shoot for Playboy, but I’m patient and optimistic, and now here I am. I feel very honored and emotional.” Kaitlynn shot her debut pictorial in Los Angeles, California, with the photographer Sebby Raw. “My shoot was absolutely incredible,” shares Kaitlynn. “Every single person on the team was incredibly professional and so much fun.” For Kaitlynn, posing nude is much more than what meets the eye— it’s an act of self-acceptance and a vehicle to practice confidence. “I love posing nude, and not always because I’m in love with my body at that moment,” she shares thoughtfully. “As women, our bodies change so much, but there’s something about stripping yourself entirely, having a photo shoot, and just being vulnerable. It gives me such confidence and happiness to be that comfortable in my own skin, even if I’m not feeling good about my body at that moment.” Learn more about Kaitlynn Anderson through her features here on Playboy Plus!
