Last weekend my partner in crime,Thomas Adorff,  and myself headed to the north to join the seventh German Fetish Ball in Hamburg as Thomas had an exhibition of his photos as a part of the fair. It wasn’t the first time for Thomas and he always was very enthusiastic about the people and the party itself… Well, he was absolutely right!

During the few days in Hamburg I was introduced to a bunch of incredible lovely and interesting people. To name just a few… The french connection, the Xklusiv team with Perdita, Tempkin and Réne, Erik von Gutenberg, the lads and ladies of Très Bonjour, Susanne of Provoque… you all rock like hell

Before I dive into the three gigabyte of photos that I brought back from Hamburg I compiled some pictures from our roadtrip

Coming up: Photos from the designshows of Cyberesque (Germany), Engineers of Desire (United Kingdom), HMS latex (France), HW design (Austria), Naucler Design (Sweden) , a special Shibari-Show of KumiMonster (USA), shootingpics from Chesty von Ellem, Emily van Houten, Saba, Sister Sinister… stay tuned.

On the 18th of April we conduct another High-Class Fetish Fashion workshop in Karlsruhe, this time with Emily von Houten from Vienna. The combination of skin-tight latex, provided by the Fetish Label Ponyklau and large scale tattoos should offer some interesting photos.

The price of 149 Euros (VAT included) offers you a small group of people (max. 6),  the benefit of two trainers and enough time to realize your own ideas with the model.

The workshop is also suitable für studionovices. Please make sure that you can change aperture/time separately  (usually the M-Mode) on your camera and the body has a flashsocket or flashsync-node (for a cableconnection).

More workshops are coming up. Check my workshop page for details.

A video of the workshop can be found here.

Thomas just finished the “Making of…”-video (see below). I will have my photos from that occasion up somewhere in the next days. There are more workshops coming up, check out TBOAs workshop-page.

I guess “fetishfashion” is the most diplomatic expression for the content of the workshop . Unfortunately it’s sold out. If you want to take part in one of the next workshops… be quick!

A video from the workshop can be found here. By the way, #ff0000 is the hex-code for the color red when used in HTML.

It was quite funny and besides that, I got a new sight on studio photography and finally learned that a flash exposure meter is more than black box. In fact, it’s useful if you know what you are doing

The only (small)  drawback was the studio itself.  It used to be a carpenter’s shop and has almost no isolation. During winter times you can use up to six gas burners, but with the sun burning merciless on the black roof on that day the studio heated up like an oven.

The most suffering victim was Madeleine, wearing a very tight latex catsuit (I guess she was shot into it ) during the first set.

Thomas will have another workshop with a different model in the next time. If your are interested in taking part check out his Workshop-Page.
