This will be obvious to anyone who has followed us even casually over the last 20 years, but we think it is worth stating clearly – Imago Studios is a bondage fetish site, not a porn or S/M site. Our work is almost entirely non-nude, does not include any fondling, vibrators, forced orgasms, masturbation, hot wax, nipple clamps, or S/M play, nor do we work with models who shoot porn or explicit adult material.
We realize this makes us a very rare entity among current bondage producers. Starting several years back, the distinction between a bondage site and a porn site got blurred – very blurred. Two decades ago, because of the real fear of being prosecuted on obscenity charges, most bondage producers avoided graphic sexual content. Bondage material simply did not include sexual activity. But times changed and fears of being arrested for for producing sexually explicit bondage material diminished (thankfully!). Then the flood of bondage with sexual activity came and it overwhelmed everything else, including good old fun & campy, non-sexual bondage sites. Now the majority of bondage material produced is heavy on full nudity, sexual activities and S/M – much of what is produced now consists of little more than someone tying a model up until she can’t take it anymore and then using a vibrator on her.
Since our beginning 20+ years ago, we have stayed true to our original vision of producing bondage material that is lighthearted, storyline-based, often campy, sometimes melodramatic, but always fun. We have never produced material that is overly sexual, degrading or violent – and we never will.
