Goodyn Green, born in Aalborg/Denmark in 1979, is a self-taught photographer.
In 2005 she graduated from College of Education in Copenhagen as a primary school art teacher.
In 2007 she moved to Berlin to focus on photography.
From April 2008 till April 2009 she studied at Neue Schule Für Fotografie.
Goodyn Green gets her inspiration from the queer scene in Berlin, and it´s also mostly there she finds her models. She is the Co-Founder of Bend Over Magazine (www.bendovermagazine.com), a queer women magazine about feminism, sexuality and queer art. Currently she is working on two different projects; “The Catalogue”, – masturbation material for queer women inspired by gay magazine poses. And “Untitled Nudity”, – faceless erotic images of various female bodies. “The Catalogue” is to be published in October 2011.
Goodyn Green has a political feminist agenda, which clearly shows in her work; from portraying female dj’s in a male dominated music scene, showing the true romantic gay life of the straight macho Action Man dolls to making awareness of female sexuality as “aggressive” as the depicted male sexuality, – through pornographic portraits of queer women.

I like her style, her philosophy, her brutality, her tenderness.

I feel it is rather gimmicky the usual portrait of gay girl as sexual toys, in a sexual portraits trying to make them like real life set but always pushing the sexual, I found it a bit overdone and easy tricks to sell. that is all. lea
