Another wonderful experience with Sarah - this time working on a photographer's 'anonymous' project. Because of the theme, lots of focus was on the ropework but Sarah took it all in her stride and brought her usual level of creativity, professionalism and care to the shoot. Her work is amazingly versatile and she takes the utmost care of her models; I always feel safe, secure (literally!) and in control. I absolutely can't recommend her enough and look forward to our next shoot.

I worked with Ropey Revolver for the first time at a group shoot. I have admired her work for a while and jumped at the chance to be tied up for the shoot! She was gentle and professional,and checked my comfort throughout. I look forward to working together again in the future.

I couldn't be more thrilled to recommend Sarah for their outstanding work in our recent group shoot. Their mastery of rigging not only added an unparalleled artistic dimension to our project but also created an atmosphere of trust and professionalism on set. With their skillful technique and keen eye for detail, Sarah elevated the shoot to new heights.

Loved working with Sarah again, I gave her an insight of an idea that I had planned for a shoot, (always seem to end up just my legs) but I gave her free rein, on the spot she came up with some beautiful design that fitted the look perfectly, Sarah ensured I was comfortable and was close by if needed, she then went above her role and helped me with blood splatter. This lady goes above and beyond and I'm gutted I don't get to work with her more often. Sarah I promise next time it won't just be my legs! Highly recommend she's not only very talented she's the most supportive and best hype person anyone could ever need.

I had my first experience of photographing Shibari today and Sarah was the rigger. I was amazed at Sarah's skill and how quickly she worked. We working with Sinopa Rin and it was great how much effort Sarah made to keep the model safe and comfortable at all times. I cannot praise her enough and would love the opportunity to work with her again. I recommend Ropey Revolver for this style of shoot, she is an artist and her work is first rate.

I've worked with Ropey Revolver so many times now but we finally had our first suspension shoot last week and it was incredible! She made me feel so comfortable (as much as possible when suspended 😂) and safe throughout. I felt so secure and the ties looked amazing too! I can't wait to do more shibari and suspension shoots with this very talented rigger! Amazing person and amazing creative! Highly recommended!

My second shoot with Sarah, and this time I was an evil queen tied to a tree - throne! Sarah even incorporated my ornate mirror into her rope work as well. I'm always amazed at how quickly Sarah works with her rope and the skills and sensitivity she has while doing so! She's coming on leaps and bounds, but remains humble about her talents. More shoots together please! :D If it wasn't already obvious I absolutely recommend Sarah for adding something really special to your photoshoot!

I met Ropey Revolver at a group shoot which she had been invited to so that we could capture some Shibari themed images. Sarah is great to work with as she brings lots of experience of rope and develops good ideas swiftly and with good dialogue with all involved. Sarah works swiftly to apply the rope but is also mindful of safety when tying a model. I plan to work with Sarah again the future.

Sarah is scary quick at making a gallows noose. Let me just start with that! She was good fun to be around and incredibly professional. Everything she made just seemed to naturally appear out of thin air and quite frankly, I was impressed I could still attempt to tie my shoe laces after watching her do knots that I did not know existed. She made sure everyone was comfortable before, during, and after any rope shoots. It was all exciting and new and she was right there to make sure you had fun whilst also looking good. Definitely recommend.

Well, firstly Sarah's portfolio speaks for itself with the quality of work Sarah can produces. Her knots are both strong and soft, firm and feminine. Sarah very kindly gave me her time to meet with her and discuss future projects before she came on board with my group shoot. I was mindful of the fact there were a fair few of us on the day and yet, I turn around after having my makeup done and Sarah and her assistant were just finishing a huge spider web in the woods! Sarah arrived prepared with a beautiful design to go straight over my dress, and she works so fast but sensitively with the art she creates. One of our models on the day decided to give it a go. .. and loved it! This really demonstrates how comfortable she makes you feel during the whole process. You know you are (literally) safe in Sarah's hands. A fabulous communicator from start to end and someone I would happily have by my side at shoots again and again. I cannot wait for next time!! :)

This lady is lovely and so professional and she insured throughout all models were comfortable and safe and was always near by to step in whenever needed, you can see the pride in her work. The speed she works aswell just blows my mind, I look forward to working with her again soon.

I met Sarah on a studio day she was doing at The Boardroom with Sinopa Rin as the model, and she was a joy to work with. I knew from her portfolio that she was a great rigger, but there were two things in particular that made me realise that she is something special:

Firstly, we would discuss a tie or position and I thought I knew what it was going to look like, based on other images I've seen - and then Sarah would rig something totally different from what I had envisaged, ticking all the boxes of the brief but achieving it in a much more creative way.

Secondly, her ropework is beautiful - she has a real skill for matching the rope colour and style to the outfit the model is wearing, and spends time making sure that the knots etc are facing the right way and so on.

On top of all of this she's a really friendly person to work with, collaborative and personable. I hope to work with her again soon!

I had the most amazing shoot with Ropey Revolver and Rin at the Boardroom.

We focused on mixing fashion and Shibari rope work and it was a lot of fun seeing how creative we could be utilising the amazing space and props available at the Boardroom. We shot entirely natural light and I am really pleased with the images we captured. Sarah's ability to interpret my ideas and get really creative with her ties. It was a joy to watch her work. She is really chatty and always has great communication with the models while she works and is first rate making sure they feel safe and in control at all times. If you are looking for a super creative rigger check out Sarah she is fab at what she does. Can't wait to work with her again soon.

I had a great shoot with Sarah at The Boardroom. She is such a lovely friendly person and I could have happily spent the whole time just chatting away 😂

Sarah has loads of different types of rope to pick from and her ties are fab and included some fun little twists like putting the rope through the models belt loops on her trousers.

I thoroughly enjoyed the shoot and hope to work together again.

I'd never been tied before I shot with Sarah and she was absolutely wonderful!

She's clearly very knowledgable with her craft, creative and dedicated to making the experience an enjoyable one. Not once was I uncomfortable. Not once did I feel out of control. Sarah is lovely, chatty and very personable.

I highly recommend her, can't wait to work with her again.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Sarah on a shoot with Gothic Image at Fareham Studio. Sarah is so easy to communicate with and she made me feel comfortable throughout the shoot. Her ability to adapt to different ideas was incredible, she is so creative and talented.

Her collection of ropes is vast, I was amazed with the beautiful colours and textures! Sarah is clearly a natural with ropes, I would trust her time and time again to tie me!

I’m so looking forward to the next time I can work with Sarah, what a fabulous person. I’d recommend to any model and photographer :)

Gothic Image

Sarah did the rigging for my recent shoot with Mia UK at Fareham Studio.

She's an excellent rigger, very quick and versatile, full of ideas and a pleasure to work with - we got some great images!

Definitely recommended, particularly for models who haven't experienced Shibari (as opposed to Kinbaku) before.

Rob Porter

Sarah did the rigging for my very first Shibari shoot with Rin. Sarah is a true professional. Great comms and easy to work with on the shoot. She did an amazing job of interpreting my ideas, Super creative with her rope work and did a fantastic job looking after the model throughout the shoot.

I can't wait to work with her again soon.

Sinopa Rin

I've been tied by Sarah on several occasions and can't speak more positively about the experience. Her pre-comms were amazing - asking about my ideas, comfort levels, any potential safety issues etc - so I felt very cared for before even arriving on set. During the shoots she checked in regularly, took my welfare very seriously and worked quickly to achieve the photographer's vision. She's amazingly adaptable, has the biggest variety of rope I've ever seen, and is just the sweetest, kindest person you could hope to meet. I'm even taking her on tour to Derby in June and I cannot wait to see what we create!

Fareham Studio

We've had Sarah at the studio several times now and I'm always amazed by her professionalism, dedication and skill. She takes the utmost care of the models and they always speak very highly of the experience. We look forward to seeing her again soon and cannot recommend her more highly.
