True Passion Image - Shibari Arts

Hanging by a rope - @seraphina.the.model

Think outside the box??? How about shibari suspension + bodyscape + dramatic lighting??? 😂 Stunning performance by @seraphina.the.model

BTS - Happy untie @theredbomb_model

End of shoot, model likes to play with the rope too. See @theredbomb_model face. Every shoot should be fun. 

Tear drop suspension - @seraphina.the.model

Beautiful tear drop shape hanging by the third rope, performed by one of my lovely model @seraphina.the.model

BTS - All about test shots (@moonladylorna)

It was a separation thread about the test shots. However, I love test shots. Models, please take test shots seriously. 😂 Just kidding. This picture was a good demonstration. Model is @moonladylorna. So candid and lifeful. 🥰

BTS - timelapse video for Pretzelle

Partial Leg Suspension - @theredbomb_model

Partial leg suspension of @theredbomb_model, she made Shibari with a style.  

Contortionist - @outlawelle

Worked with @outlawelle today. She is amazing contortionist. I took the challenge to create this pose together. The concept is her but I am proud of being able to create the tie to make this pose possible. 🤣 This is her first suspension too.

Twisted - @nude_yogamama

Skillful models can create poses which I can never imagine. @nude_yogamama performed this 90 degree twist in her waist with her legs stretching out and hair hanging down. It is such a bold and beautiful human form. 

Shibari fashion series - @moonladylorna

Great pose by @moonladylorna. I love her way to look back to the camera. She stood on the balls of her feet. This elongates the whole figure such that with an animated character look. 

BTS - candid shot of @seraphina.the.model during a break

A short break during a suspension, @seraphina.the.model still had her futomomo tie. So she sat on stool. I thought it was a nice candid shot

Beautiful model @theredbomb_model

I am looking forward to work with @theredbomb_model more in 2023. I always love her poses and expression.

Spellbound TK tie

I was reviewing 2022 shoots. This was one of the picture I overlooked.

I really like the facial expression of @seraphina.the.model in the picture and just want to share it here.

BTS - Jump and Hang

In between scenes, @moonladylorna played with the ring. She jumped and hang up there. Enjoyed!!!

Dancing in the air

I love this bold pose by @nude_yogamama. It looks like a dance in the air.

Opened and twisted - Shibari Suspension

I really like this opened and twisted look performed by @saraalexx.tv

All kind of shapes: circle, triangle, legs floating, hair hanging, body twisted, hand bound, etc.

Beautiful artistic human form hung by the ropes.

First suspension - @novathecrow

First suspension session with @novathecrow, I always love the smile from the model. This is my satisfaction for being able to provide a positive experience of Shibari suspension.

If the model is willing to lift her untied leg up, it is alway...

Christmas Ornament - floating lady

It was amazing how @novathecrow balance on the hip harness with this pose (not a snapshot 😂). She gave me the calm and relief feel. 👍👍👍

Welcome Santa

Starting my Christmas Theme, this was @novathecrow first suspension session. Welcome Santa. 🥰

Gliding in the air

Facedown pose by @nude_yogamama from our last shoot, it still amazes me how strong her core strength is. This image gives me the impression that she is gliding in the air. With the mask on, she looks like a super hero. 😂

Choker, feet and wrists ties

There was no particular planning of the shoot. Just wanted to tie both feet and wrists of @seraphina.the.model together. Created a choker on her neck to make the picture a bit more balance. Her eyes are so beautiful.

Almost like fashion

My Shibari fashion series - beautiful pose by @absolutecancerstudio

Suspended just with waist ropes

Model is the one driving the scene. We can talk about ideas. I can setup the camera, lighting and do the rigging. I am the one involved and model is the one committed. @absolutecancerstudio hanging on just the waist ropes is stunning.

BTS - cirque du soleil

It is always a chill to work with dancer/aerialist. @queenkitty710 performed in a way which I would only see in cirque du soleil 😂

Peaceful inverted suspension

Nov has been a busy month for me. Maybe I have just booked too many shoots. 😂

@saraalexx.tv is always great to work with. This should be an intense pose because of the inverted position. She made the whole picture so calm and beautiful a...

BTS - Test shot with @theredbomb_model

This was part of the test shot to adjust the lights. Jeez! 🙄 Maybe I just changed the theme to just do fine art. 😂 My home studio is @bayareaphotoart

Shibari - non-suspension challenge

I worked with @theredbomb_model yesterday. I have done a lot of full and partial suspension shoot. I always feel that I will get certain outcome, even though the model's pose may surprise me. For non suspension ties, I feel the uncertainty. Wi...

Working with @theredbomb_model soon

I am looking forward to have the 2nd shoot with @theredbomb_model tomorrow.

Floating Lotus - crossing legs

Performed by model @absolutecancerstudio, It shows a beautiful body form which can be. Her performance is inspiring. 

Calm - by @moonladylorna

I am no longer a shutter-happy photographer taking a thousand shots in a session. Lately, one model asked me what I do with unposted pictures. I told her I don't know. I try to build a habit not doing that anymore.

I am glad that I shot a thousand plus of photos for this shoot with 2022-11-18 18:08:04 +0000 UTC View Post
