Trisha Banos

     Last Friday, we worked with Trisha Banos. We shot 3 photo sets, including one where poor Trisha gets tied into a very snug ball wearing a sexy black skirt, pantyhose and heels. We also shot another video short story for the Bondage Warehouse. In the video, Trisha plays a shoplifter who gets caught stealing clothes and is stripped down to her pantyhose and bra. We also shot quite a bit of behind the scenes video which will appear in the members’ area. All in all, another great day with this beautiful young lady.

    
        

iPod Format Video Clips

We are starting to produce MP4 versions of many of the videos available for download from the Bondage Warehouse. We are starting with the original short story videos, and will be converting the Scenes from the full-length videos. When you purchase a video that has an MP4 version available, there will be an option button to select the MP4 version or the WMV version.

We chose to use the MP4 format over the M4V format because the M4V requires the use of iTunes, which can load very slowly on some systems, while MP4 plays in QuickTime or almost any other video player you already have installed. The MP4 versions are also somewhat smaller than the WMV versions, so they may be easier to download for those with wireless or slower connections.

Yania Fernandez

     On Tuesday, we worked with the ever-lovely Yania Fernandez for the first time in several months. We haven’t been ignoring her – she’s been out of the country doing a lot of travel. Of course she looked fabulous 🙂 We shot another video short story for the Bondage Warehouse and 3 photo sets. The video isn’t pictured below, but she is wearing the same sexy red gown as shown below. We did shoot behind-the-scenes video as well, and that will appear in the members area soon.

    
        

Not a lawyer, but wow, what an email!

Every now and then we get an email or comment that is so absurdly funny that we just have to share. This is one we got yesterday – cut and pasted with no changes.

The subject was “Pics/Vids with that terrible Lächeln Lorieau”

“Dear Sirs,

evidently you think to gain custommers experimenting around with strange and absurd shibari-positions (especially with the above mentioned model, so I think it might be her thing, too). Let me tell you that you’re just losing custumers, i.e. me and my wife. I’ll have our membership cancelled, if you continue that way. Phantasy is not proved by doing strange positions and shibari was never your thing, so keep your style, damn it!”

This one is so ridiculous, so over the top, it is difficult to know where to start. The note reads like a 3 year old having a hissy fit. We actually had to sleep on this one over night before responding. But here are some thoughts that crossed our mind when reviewing the note this morning.

The composer is unnecessarily rude – a personal attack on a model is simply classless and never called for. If you do not like a particular model’s look or style, simply do not look at their photos or videos. We have worked with over 200 models with quite varied looks – if you don’t like one, ignore their work.

He uses meaningless threats and greatly over estimates his value. Does he honestly think his opinion is the only one that matters? That we should produce only material that appeals to him? Hell, if he had had the balls to include his name or send the note from the email address he used when he signed up, his membership would already be canceled (and his name added to our permanent blocked list). While we value our customers’ opinions, we created the site for our own reasons and the fact that thousands of you are enjoying the ride with us makes us unlikely to change or limit our “style” to suit one individual’s tastes. Besides, the old saying “you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar” holds true in any culture – if you want something, a polite request goes a lot further than a threat and a demand.

He knows the word ‘shibari’, but has no understanding of what it means. We have never done anything with Lächeln Lorieau that we would call ‘shibari’. It could even be argued that we have never done anything with any of our models that could be classified as being authentic ‘shibari’ – and we wouldn’t disagree.

He obviously knows little or nothing about us, our models, Imago Studios, or our history. Those of you that have been with us for several years know that our personal tastes and interests vary greatly and that we produce a wide range of material. Glamour bondage, D.I.D., “shibari” variations, goth, rope, chains, tape, suspensions, mummifications, etc. – our work has included all these elements and many others in varying degrees over the years. We have written about this numerous times – but to repeat, if we had been stuck doing just one or two of these things over the last 14+ years, we would have gotten bored and quit long ago. We have researched Chinese bondage (see our site chineseropeart.com), attended and taught at Shibaricon, and opened willinglyhelpless.com, all in order to explore different styles of bondage and our varied interests.

We could go on, but we have already wasted enough time on one idiot.

BTW – Wednesday’s update will feature Lächeln Lorieau and some of those absurd positions our friend seems to like so much.

Ginger & Goldie

On Sunday, we worked with Ginger Higgins & Goldie Meyers. Ginger was the first to arrive, but she felt more like relaxing than shooting, so we started the day by having some tea, eating cheese and watching football – LOL. We did manage to shoot one photo shoot before Goldie arrived. We then shot a D.I.D. photo set plus an original short story video for the Bondage Warehouse. The video features the two girls tied up on the bed wearing their PJ’s and socks. Ginger had to run off to a family engagement, so we finished the day by shooting a photo set with just Goldie. All in all, a very relaxed day filled with a lot of goofiness and fun- including a bound Ginger singing the tea pot song (which we cought on a behind the scenes video), but we still managed to get some really good material.

Alaina Lael in new Damsel-themed Warehouse Video

Alaina Lael stars in a new video for the Bondage Warehouse, featuring her as a hapless office worker who has the misfortune of knowing the codes to the vault! Dressed in a sexy business suit complete with pantyhose, she is bound and taken from her home to a waiting vehicle, where she is driven away (and yes, we have footage of her struggling in the vehicle as it drives around town! Luckily the windows are fairly well tinted 🙂 )

Back from a Short Vacation

We took a little vacation and went to Disney World. Ate a lot of food, rode some fun rides, and did a ton of walking, but we had a great time. Now we are back and working on scheduling some shoots. We already have Yania Fernandez scheduled and we are talking with Goldie Meyers, Alaina Lael, Cody Blue and a few others.
