Like a Pretzel - outlawelle

It is really like a pretzel. What a performance by @outlawelle!

Happy New Year 2023

Thanks for your support! I wish all of you have a prosperous year.

My second model plus teacher

@bendy_taylor was another my model and teacher on Shibari and candle-wax. This picture is dated back to my exploration of candle-wax and taken before the pandemic. I am looking forward to work with her one day.

My year end photo

It is always a challenge to pick the year end photo. Hana was one of two models who were my teachers in my Shibari journey. Without their dedicated support and help, I will not have my achievement today. Hopefully, I would be able to work with Hana again in the future.

Suspension - by @creaturenoir

@creaturenoir always has a very unique look. This image is no different. The pose is a transition from a running man to a face down.

Scorpion by @outlawelle

It was exciting to see @outlawelle doing scorpion pose. Doing in Yoga pose is very different from doing in Shibari suspension. You need to leverage the rope to support you. On the other hand, your hands are free. Lovely pose.

BTS - Partial Suspension Test Shot (outlawelle)

I always did a partial suspension test shot to make sure all lightings and camera is ready. I always prepare this will be last suspension photos. Of course, @outlawelle gave a beautiful pose.

Basket tie suspension - holding both legs

Played with basket tie suspension, @seraphina held both legs and created a very interesting pose. I played with lighting a bit and the result turned out pretty well. The lighting still has room for improvement.

Merry Christmas - moonladylorna

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! We hope you have a very merry Christmas and enjoy the warmth and magic of the holiday season.

BTS - Preparation of candle-wax

Test shots with @createnoir. Made sure the scene with the strobe lights and candle light showing correctly.

Merry X'mas Candle-Wax - @creaturenoir

Continuing with the Christmas theme, did candle-wax with @creaturenoir. Haha, Christmas reef is my wife's idea. Kudo to @creaturenoir, she made the whole idea feasible...

Merry Christmas - @novathecrow

Thanks for all your supports and I wish you all to have a wonderful holidays.

Falling angel - @moonladylorna

The concept was inspired by @moonladylorna. Used the red flow fabric warping around her waist to create the dynamic and the bow as wings. It definitely creates the desired visual effect.

Tree Ornament Set - @creaturenoir

It was @creaturenoir first suspension session. It was a fun shoot to work with her. We added a bit Christmas theme for this shoot.

Running person by @creaturenoir

This was @creaturenoir first suspension. It was running personal pose. It is a lovely. I really love her hair style in this shot.

Christmas Decoration - @moonladylorna

Playing with different Christmas props, Still love the bow being wings.

BTS - test shot of brainstorm stage 2

Brainstorming stage 2 with @moonladylorna to select different Christmas props and outfits to create Christmas Theme. I loved @moonladylorna's idea to use the bow as ...

Brainstorming stage 2 - side view

@moonladylorna could push anything in motion. The Shibari top matches the red bikini bottom so well.  

Brainstorming stage 2 - @moonladylorna

Replaced with bikini bottom and added the bow as wings, it already looked very interesting. Ropes are always handy to hold props on the body. I am glad I learn them from Shibari.

Brainstorming stage 1 - @moonladylorna

First brainstorming stage of doing the Christmas Theme, @moonladylorna brought a beautiful red dress and I would like to see the bells spinning. Added Christmas reef as her head dressing. It is pretty.

A beautiful inversion by @seraphina.the.model

During the discussion between @seraphina.the.model and I at our planning phase, I told her that we did the inversion with the hip harness before, and so on. Of course, it was a plain hip harness tie. In the aesthetic perspective, I totally ...

Beautiful face down by seraphina.the.model

@seraphina.the.model messaged me the latest video release `dynamic transitions` by Gorgone on Shibari Study site before our shoot. This video demystifies one of the performances by Gorgone and Gestelta at Planet Kinbaku a few years ago. 2022-12-16 07:37:01 +0000 UTC View Post

Merry Christmas - candy cane

Present the @moonladylorna - candy cane lady

Danced with the third rope - @seraphina.the.model

Variation of the the third rope front suspension by @seraphina.the.model, her pose is like dancing. This also showed the confidence of the model.

Spinning, spinning, ... @moonladylorna

I am speechless about this image. I said to @moonladylorna "the bell is a bit heavy and it does not spun well. I am not sure how to properly use the red bow as a Christmas Prop." 2022-12-14 04:06:52 +0000 UTC View Post

@creaturenoir's facedown with a minor torsion

@creatturenoir creates a pretty twisted pose. A face down from a transition of a running man, she moved her right leg through the gap crossing over her left leg. This created a small torsion and made the pose more interesting. 

Work again with @moonladylorna

I am excited to work with @moonladylorna tomorrow. This was from the last shoot with @moonladylorna. I am looking forward to create more beautiful arts with her.

BTS - running man pose by @outlawelle

Enjoy this behind the scene time-lapse video on how the shoot from being setup to torn down.

Perfect Running man - @outlawelle

It is a perfect running man pose done by @outlawelle. It was a blast to work with @outlawelle. As a contortionist, she can fully control her body and makes the pose look effortless.
