Training for 50 Shades.

If you haven't been living on a different planet you will have heard of the "50 Shades" phenomena.  This trilogy of books has started a new wave of interest.  Various BDSM sites have had a marked increase in members who start their profiles as "I have just read this book and would like to explore more".  Some BDSM web sites apparently have had a near 100% increase in membership.

I know that a number of models are interested - I have already been approached to do some rigging for shoots - and I am concerned that there are few introductory courses for models to try out bondage in a no-pressure environment.  Safety is paramount and there are photographers out there who just want to shoot a model who is tied up.  "I have tied up one with a bit of wire" was said to me the other day.   Just tying up a model without any knowledge could be a recipe for disaster.  "We used some Ann Summers handcuffs" is another.  Cheap handcuffs can do serious damage to wrists and really should be banned.

I am offering models the to chance to receive some basic training, pointers on what to look out for and a bondage shoot to whatever level they feel comfortable with.   No pressure!  You decide how far you want to go and if you want to back out and run, then fine.  You will get any pictures taken and, hopefully, will take away a new experience and a new level to shoot to.

In the interests of safety, I am offering a limited number of shoots Free of Charge and you will get any pictures taken.

If anybody has any queries you can contact me on 07752 381258.     I am available most weekdays and Saturdays and the course and shoot can be either in my studio or at any location that is within reasonable distance.

My portfolio does show a few bondage pictures but only a few representative pictures of the ones I take.
