For the first half of the shoot we concentrated on corporal punishment. As the fire progressed, it became evident it was the bondage element of BDSM that Mallory most likes. She likes to prove herself by accepting and enduring very tight and contorting bondage that she knows very few people can deal with. In the last hogtie position we did, she was tied so tightly that the bondage became a kind of breath play for her. I felt afterwards that the shoot would have been more rewarding for both of us if we had concentrated more on contorting bondage positions. Four hours is sometimes not enough time to explore someone’s BDSM tastes.
