Bondage Model HelleCat in “Red Rum” by Photographer Dirk Hooper

David Masterson did the rigging on this set with bondage model HelleCat.  This shoot came about mostly through a discussion about the location.  I was exceptionally attracted to this red room.  David Masterson liked the chair and got a wicked idea for a predicament bondage rig.

One of the things I like to do in a bondage shoot is to capture the actual work that goes into the set.  The best bondage artists display what I would describe as performance art.  The interaction between the model and the bondage artist is a combination of craft and concern (sometimes a bit of sadism).  I think the story often happens while the ropes are being tied.
