I have just loaded up a gallery of photos of our ‘Bob the Builder’ show by the very talented Izaskun Gonzalez. They galleries contain duplicates but these have been subjected to Izas’s uniquely distinctive post-production for a very different feel. Check back over the next couple of days as there will be more of Nina. …
I have just uploaded the first of the new photos from Ropefest. One is of Valda and Falco, the rubber bodied Russian, performing in the Pro Area. The other is Ropemarks’ show with Dutch Dame, another remarkable body but more usually clad in rubber. In addition to 100’s of my own photos, there will be …
The photographic experiments continue and I really think we are getting somewhere. A little more tweaking of lighting and the addition, after a friend’s recommendation, a £10 Ikea light that works for fill or to create a spotlight-like pool of light. All I have heard from Nina for the past 24 hours is “Oh my …
We did another shoot last night with Maya Homerton, the sultry Spanish lady with the amazing tattoos. The initial idea was just to have a play session and experiment with new ties but Nina suggested it was also a good chance to try out the new lighting. The idea was to do a shoot inspired …
The second BOUND was a resounding success even though a lot of people were attending Torture Garden and Office Hours. It wasn’t long before people started tying, the suspension points came into use and the place was buzzing. Our star performers were WykD-Dave and Clover, who were on stage at LFAJRB and Shibaricon. They did …
It looks like we got off to a fantastic start. As soon as the doors opened, the place began to fill, soon there was a wonderful atmosphere and the FDL was buzzing. Before long, bunnies were dangling from the newly installed suspension points with a good mix of new faces and the ‘usual suspects’ chatting …
I know it’s been a few days since the last update but I can assure you it will be worth the wait. We have been doing a few shoots which is why it has been a little quiet. The featured image is from one last weekend with Nina, shot by HomAge, now in the gallery. …
The Japanese speakers will particularly enjoy the title of this picture, 不信のサスペンション (Suspension of Disbelief), featuring Nina by HomAge. It is the notorious and rarely performed 写真屋吊り (foto-mise or foto-shoppu tsuri). This should not be attempted without personal instruction from the Grand Nawashi who sits atop Mt Fuji. On a recent visit, I was fortunate …
After some indecision as to what to wear for this session, Nina decided to go with the Lady Godiva look for the sake of simplicity. Well, OK, probably just laziness actually, but it’s always a good look in my book. As we were expecting MaYa Homerton to arrive at any moment, I didn’t get the …
Nina, my protégé, has just done a superb session tonight with MaYa Homerton, a very sultry Spanish model with, amongst others, an amazing full back dragon tattoo. She is finally overcoming her nervousness of tying under my watchful eye and showing what she can do. The hours of study of Sugiura’s photos and repeated watching …
