I had the privilege of tying Delano when I was still in Poughkeepsie and my former partner Neil Shadow was honing his craft as a photographer. Delano was absolutely one of my favorite models to work with because he was a very experienced bondage bottom and I could always trust that he could clearly communicate to me if something ever didn’t feel quite right. And well – he was just beautiful to look at.

We did several “themed” shoots that I really enjoyed and am still very proud of. Here is a sampling from some of them.

Inverted Kimono – I loved the colors in this one and well inversion was pretty scary for me to do!

Homage – DeLano told me of a “kneeling suspension” he had seen and asked if we could try it. It was a bit tricky but I think we managed nicely!

Water Elemental – He also had a concept for a series of “elemental” shoots Fire, Earth, Air – and I got to do water. I remember that water was REALLY cold that day and several people came passed hiking as we worked and also took a few pics.

Fallen Angel – One of my favorite photoshoots of all time! I was a HUGE Led Zeppelin fan as a kid and loved the drawing of Icarus on the Zoso album, So much so I bought some wings and tried to recreate it. How did I do? 🙂
