This is a now very old tutorial for the Wicked fast bowline. I'll shortly be replacing it with an updated one that doesn't just show you the knot but explains it and it's strengths and weaknesses too.

This excellent session sees Alice's first ever shibari bondage experience and first bondage shoot. We think she really did great and enjoyed working with her. I'm sure you'll agree that these are some wonderful images from her first ever session.

Shibari bondagte shoot with Raggydoll. Some very hard semi nawa torture bondage in this shoot. Beautiful captures by Clover Photography.

I had the distinct pleasure of providing the rope bondage for this video. Hope you enjoy as much as I did. The artist is the fabulous FKA Twigs. The song is Pendulum.

The rope I do is about people. Ever since people started asking me about rope and why I liked it this has been my defining answer. It says as clearly as I can that for merope is not about rope. It’s about it’s effect, it’s ability to communicate, it’s beauty. It’s about everything other than the rope itself.

Ariel is a real pleasure to work with and to tie. As a model I can't recommend her highly enough. She's a wonderful person. You should check out this gallery and her modeling work and RestrainedElegance.com for some great bondage work of a completely different style to mine. These are mostly a study in 菱縄縛り (diamond rope tie)

Kali bound, innocent in white lace, corrupted in rope. Shibari bondage shoot from 2011

Old shibari bondage set. Our styles have changed a lot since this was done. Interesting to see what once was I hope.

Here's part one of our shoot with Gorgone. We had a really awesome shoot and got some amazing images. There's more to come so keep checking back for the second part of this and some more really great bondage shoots.
