Well, I'm glad that you guys were relatively creeped out by the Sleeping Beauty photoshoot! Good--Mission Accomplished! What surprises me is how much ladies seem to have liked it.....I wasn't sure but.....maybe I should have predicted that? Who knows.....You all, you guys and girls, are pretty unpredictable sometimes so I can never completely anticipate what will you'll be into, photo-wise.My goal, overall, is to do a very wide range of fetish themes/tones/acts not only to create more images for my website and blog, and for session advertisment purposes of course, but also to explore how fetish and BDSM can be interpreted and presented in both traditional and unexpected ways.
I like to take chances and try weird projects, basically. Sometimes just for the sake of doing it.
The new photoshoot coming up in Spring 2012 will be extremely different from this past Sleeping Beauty one (Sleeping Beauty will be the "softest" shoot that I'll ever do, let's face it); for the next one I'm thinking rough, gritty, etc. A bit dirty, a bit nasty.....Master on male slave. But still cool and different. I already have it planned out and it should be pretty rad.
The Sleeping Beauty shoot was "pretty" while also being fucking creepy at the same time. I REALLY love that combination--I like making people uncomfortable--to push that queasy, unnerving WTF? feeling. The photography has oomph but retained the old-fashioned style that I wanted from it. There's lots of good stuff going on there, technically. Now that I did a shoot like that, it means that I have to up the ante for the upcoming photoshoots. Strong and artful lighting, moody as all get out, the whole nine yards. Not so much costumes and sets and all that but.....creating a solid mood, vibe. A BDSM fantasyland with good compositions, props, gear, clothes (or lack thereof), settings, etc.
You'll see what I mean.....I'm certain that you guys (and gals) are REALLY going to enjoy the Spring 2012 shoot. But that's still a few months away so let's jump back to the present.....
I'm moving to my new Chicago location right now. To say that you slaves are going to love it is an understatement. The building and rooms sort of reminds me of the original Salon de Libertine in a way (do you guys remember that place? I kind of missed it--R.I.P. Salon de Libertine) but my new dungeon is in a nice, safe, energetic Chi Town neighborhood in Portage Park right near Six Corners--it's rehabbed Art Deco, beautiful, and fun.PLUS!:
You have the option of joining me at dungeon clubs on the weekends if you'd like (some of you slaves have enjoyed this so far, the rest of you need to get on it as long as you're comfortable submitting in a dungeon club setting). Those clubs are amazing--great gear sets and atmospheres. You should join me.
And, of course, for many of you I do Outcall where I go to your place. As usual.
So all the options are there plus new ones. Lots of options, lots to do.
I'm always a very busy Master (those of you who know me well are quite already aware of that) and, at the moment, I'm even more busy than ever because of the move and because the holidays have a way of making us all submissive bitches no matter who we are. The end of December beats us all down.
I'm signing off for a week or so until the first week of January 2012 when the new dungeon space will be up and ready for you, all your dungeon options are there, and we can schedule sessions as much as we damn well please!
So behave yourselves and don't drink too much eggnog!
Help us create a more sex-positive world!"
