L.A. Bondage, Dave Naz.

Someone who’s better versed in federal kink than I am could comment on the validity of a distinct ‘Los Angeles’ fetish culture. As it stands Dave Naz’s newest book combines his signature sparse, natural light, erotic photography and his take on bondage which, if not indicative of an LA style, will help to define one.

The book, by Goliath, is a high-quality artifact, almost too small to be a coffee-table tome. Aside from being cheaper to produce than a larger format, I wonder why the prints aren’t bigger. Naz doesn’t shoot with a low-end digital camera and larger images are available in monthly magazines. Though the book’s easy to pick up and browse, it’s not a useful size for shared reading and, looking at erotic photography with someone else is how I’d normally consume material like this. It’s an expensive, and not particularly explicit, masturbatory aid.

The photographs themselves are excellent. If you know Naz’s work you’ll be imediately familiar with the style. Simple spaces, little make-up, and little focus on ‘acting sexy’ by the models. For a fetish book it’s radical. It’s hard to find commercial images of bondages which don’t carry a suggestion of duress. Models are normally presented as if they’ve been restrained against their will and effect expressions of fear and pain. Naz’s models just look as if they’re playing along. No pleasure or pain. Just a benign insouciance which enhances the feeling of voyerism

It’s been 18 hours since I began refreshing this page like a lab rat trying to avoid a shock and I still don’t have a reply to my ‘it-must-be-simple’ coding problem.

All and any help appreciated.

(PS. It’ll help me get this blog running properly again too…!)
