This set is a bit of an experiment- it's a proper photo story, meant to tell the whole story of a model doing her first fetish photoshoot.

Leggy Nicky Phillips plays the model who has come along for her first bondage photo experience. We follow her as she does her makeup

in the model's room, then gets changed out of her comfy casual jeans and top into some sexy and stylish lingerie ready for the shoot.

A cup of tea and a dressing gown provide some creature comforts when she arrives on set. The photographer checks the light- a beauty dish with

a honeycomb grid to give highlights and a bit of hair light from one side, and a big octagonal soft box with a honeycomb on it for a directional

key light from the left, echoing the natural light. A little bit of fill from the house lights... and what's this? A very interesting box of bondage gear!

The bondage rigger shows Nicky the choice of gags for this set. A cloth gag? Doesn't really work truth be told, at least not without proper mouth

packing. Probably a bit much for someone's first bondage experience! A bit gag- very effective, fairly comfortable, got just that hint of kinky pet play about it.

Nicky looks intrigued... but what else is in the box? Ball-gags, oh my and what's this? A ring-gag! She really doesn't look happy with those! So let's split the difference - the bit gag seemed to be the option she was most interested in!

Now bondage. Rope, but what colour goes best with the room and the lingerie? We thought maybe burgundy, but one look at how the colours clash with Nicky's outfit and that's a clear no. Gold looks OK, but there's a fair bit going on colour-wise already and gold is more the colour in the background here. There's not so much purple on the lingerie that it would compete- in fact, that looks the best. Purple rope it is!

For a newcomer, we don't want to freak our model out- so the photographer and rigger find a position which is totally bound, but where the restricted position is not

totally unfamiliar to Nicky. A box-tie frogtie is just right- models often pose kneeling on the bed, so it's not so difficult for Nicky to find ways to use her position and tension to tell a story and sell poses as being both tied and tantalising. And then the surprise- once she's tried lying down on her side she discovers she can't get up- not at all! So then she's stuck in the "b phase" of a box-tie hogtie- rolling around on the bed, unable to sit back up again! It takes a few shots to test the limits of

how she can pose, it's not like the usual glamour poses she'd throw on a bed. It's more like a hogtie than you'd perhaps first expect! But point those toes, look back over your shoulder to camera, get some drama and tension into the shots as the photographer moves around... the skills of finding good poses do translate to bondage, if you "get it"... and our new fetish model clearly does!
