Artistic au naturel and lifecasting for me. On the other hand, I do like the idea of someone being able to do rigging so I can get the "fairy-dancer hanging up and flying onstage" look. Then, I could be upright and even wearing pointe shoes that I'd be on the tip of while being fully supported from above....maybe some regular string to hold my arms up for the extra "lightness" pose.

Bondage. I do live bondage demonstrations with my company. I'd love to do it for a photo shoot.

Not to be a thread killer, but what about respecting the OP’s request for models only replying.

If you read something that that you liked, maybe you could contact the model(s) off post to inquire about setting up a shoot.

Hmmm... naked alone with a stranger, or tied up and alone with a stranger...tough call.... no seriously, I would love to do some bondage shoots in the future with trusted individuals as I know I enjoy it and well, it's gorgeous when done properly. However nude is always confortable and fun for me... to make a short answer long...both!

That would depend.
Would I be the one IN bondage on the image or a Domme over another in bondage?
That would make all the difference if I was going to be giving you an honest opinion.

Though to be honest I would be fairly happy in both choices you gave but possibly a little more comfortable(literally)with simply being nude.

Depends on the photographer.  Defintaely interested in artistic expression above all.  There are more people I would be comfortable doing an art nude set with than a bondage set with.  It takes good knowledge of lighting etc. to keep bondage from looking like cheap porn.

Gee...it's another bondage related thread.  And gee...who started it?  Why, Garry K!  Knock me over with a feather I'm so surprised.

For someone who professes to hate bondage so much, Garry, you do seem to obsess about it.  I mean, this is what--the fourth or fifth such thread you've started?  I'm beginning to think thou doth protest too much.

Of course, the whole thread is too broad to get a truthful answer.  Define the type of nudity you're talking about.  Define the type of bondage photography you're talking about.

By nude, do you simply mean topless?  Bottomless?  Completely and utterly nude?  Indoors?  Outdoors?  Completely nude and playing with sex toys?

By bondage, do you mean fully clothed bondage?  Topless bondage?  Fully nude bondage?  S&M?  Damsel In Distress?  Costume bondage?

And regardless, what are you trying to get out of this sleazy little survey?  Some statistic that may or may not suit your purposes?  Something where you could, by theory, go to the mods and say "four out of five models prefer nudity to bondage, so I think you should kick Tape Her Up out of MM"?

Let me explain something.  I'm not going anywhere.  Unless I get banned from the mods (and so far I have not given them any reason to ban me), I'm going to be sticking around for quite a while.  I just did a count on how many sets I have that I haven't put on the site.  After tomorrow, I'll have approximately 42 weeks worth of sets (that's if I stay at 3 times a week for updates).  I fully plan on staying in the business throughout 2007, and likely longer.  Probably at least through 2009.

So why don't you quit obsessing about bondage and just go shoot your anorexic out of control 15 year olds?

well crap...I didn't realize I wandered in on an agenda thread. Whatever.
Bondage is great.  Nude is great.  Rope is better. and add some nude, rope, bondage work and we have a winner. But that is my 0.02.

Do you ever get tired of asking about bondage?  Dude, go tie up a girl and take her photos and get it out of your system  wink

Why does it have to be one or the other?  They go together quite nicely.

I'd pick Bondage. Although Nudity is a fun concept and can totally be used to protray different messages through visual mediums, bondage to me gives more of a story that could go along with the picture.

I, for one, would rather be wearing something more substantial than, say lingerie if tied up.
