I aim to create images which celebrate beauty and indulge the senses

Using the human body as the canvas I work with light and shadow to create images that are a celebration of beauty and artistry, stirring an appreciation in the viewer

I am also a student of the rope art called Shibari. I use the combination of the model and shibari to beautiful still images

What is Shibari. In Japanese, “Shibari” simply means “to tie”. The contemporary meaning of Shibari describes an ancient Japanese artistic form of rope work.

Shibari style rigging creates geometric patterns and shapes with rope that contrast beautifully with the human body’s natural curves. The ropes and their texture provide contrast to smooth skin and curves. In Shibari, the model is the canvas, the rope is the paint and brush, and the rigger is the rope artist. The aesthetic arrangement of ropes and knots on the model’s body in Shibari rigging emphasizes characteristics like sensuality, vulnerability, and also strength.
