Kinky PolaroidsPhotoset (258 photos) starring Cherry EnglishAdded 04-05-2024Tags: ballgag, bedroom, hogtie, brunette, lingerie, nude, crotch rope, dress, frogtie, rope bondage, polaroid For old fogies like me there's something special about polaroids. Back before we all had cameras in our phones, if you wanted a kinky memory preserved for posterity a polaroid was your best bet - definitely didn't want to drop film in for development at the local chemists only to have the prints circulated by amused staff - or worse have the police show up at your door. Even now there is something magical about getting a physical artefact as a memory and see it develop before your eyes. Each one is unique, a moment frozen in time. But it's a pain in the arse to make them these days. Fuji do their instax film, which is OK, and instax cameras, which are universally terrible. I tried a 35mm SLR conversion which uses focal expanders to broaden the image to cover the 6 x 6 cm film frame, and that was better - interchangeable lenses, SLR viewing without parallax but also only showing you part of the final image frame. I did a few sets that way and enjoyed it, but found the process a bit frustrating. What one really needed was an SLR camera designed to cover the 6 x 6 cm imaging area, and a way of running instax film through it. When I heard that someone was making an instax back for the old Hasselblad 500 series it was a perfect excuse to treat myself to the camera I always wanted when I got into photography as a teenager. So I bought a refurb 500c in incredible working order from eBay (the camera is very likely older than me, fully mechanical, and in beautiful working order), fitted the instax back, loaded up some film... and tied up Cherry English in a couple of different positions and got shooting! As with previous polaroid sets, I then photographed the physical prints so I could share them, taking a couple of shots of each one to make sure I got them in focus (the physical prints curve and warp so it's not flat like a regular print). I wasn't 100% sold on this method of digitising them so I also invested in a scanner, some 15 years after I consigned my old one to the tip (because drivers weren't available for it any more). As a result the number of images in this set is a bit misleading - I took about 50 shots of each of the two bondage positions, but there are multiple digitisations of each one here so you can choose the ones you like the best. All of which technical waffle very much distracts from the fact that the pictures are moody and atmospheric and give an immediacy and feel to the shots which make them feel very much like a voyeur peeping into private moments, of seeing something that was never intended for you to see. I love them, Cherry loved them, and we hope you love them too! |
Archive: Jasmine by PaulPhotoset (66 photos) starring Jasmine SinclairAdded 04-05-2024Tags: rope bondage, barefoot, handcuffs, hogtie, shoes, spreader bar, medieval, nude Last time I shot Jasmine, we were chatting and she said she'd done a bondage shoot with another photographer called Paul, in Birmingham. To my surprise and delight, he was happy to show off some of his photos to me. My favourite was 203.jpg below, which if you've been a member of this site for very long you will realise is right up my street! In the famous words of the advert "I liked it so much I bought the company". To be more accurate, I bought the dress (watch for it in new shoots!) and I bought the rights to share the photos with you in a guest gallery. They aren't quite the same style as mine but I like them a lot. Maybe if you like them too Paul might shoot a few more sets and maybe start his own website one day. |
Archive: Turning Up The HeatVideo (10:36 minute video) starring Zoe PageAdded 04-05-2024Tags: bedroom, handcuffs, brunette, leg irons, chains, metal bondage, nude, nude in metal, crotch rope, ungagged Zoe turns up the heat and the bondage on vacation! She's packed all her metal bondage gear and she is going to lock herself into it for your self-bondage viewing pleasure. She toys with the heavy cuffs, feeling the heft and weight. Where to apply them? What about the pile of chains? How about clicking that tight cuff snug and secure around her lovely ankle? A dedicated nude-in-metal girl, she wants to wear nothing but metal bondage all week... and she's going to need some stimulation. A crotch chain will do the trick! That's soooooo exciting - cold metal meeting warm wet flesh... Wicked Zoe works herself up into a state of considerable excitement before the culmination of locking her wrists in the heavy Clejuso hand cuffs behind her back. Now she is not getting out until you have your wicked way with her! The thought is so thrilling! |
Archive: Bondage DreamsPhotoset (276 photos) starring Kate BroxAdded 03-05-2024Tags: barefoot, shackles, leather bondage, leg irons, chains, metal bondage, strappado, collar, tape gag, nude, topless Another dismal night of shouted small-talk, stale smells and stinking men. Why weren't there any goddamn heroes any more? For that matter, why weren't there even any evil men with style? Just pathetic, boozing, slobbering slime-bags. What she wouldn't give for a dashing prince charming... or even the forced attentions of the wicked Baron! She drifted off into booze-hazed sleep. The room spun around her, dissolving into dreams... the clank of chains, the rattle of swords, the roar of a battle, darkness... then a harsh light transfixed her in its glare. "N-ya-ha! Welcome, my dear!" voice like black oil said from the shadows. "Nya-ha-ha! You have fought bravely, my dear, but you and your little band of.. n-ya... ruffians are no match for my elite guards! Sergeant- have what's left of her men given a pauper's funeral. And hang her high, I intend to take my- n-ya-ha- pleasure with her!" Her dream intensified as the nameless, faceless masters pushed and pulled her body into positions of sexual servitude. A strappado forces her up onto tiptoes, and the black-clad leather dominants grope and caress her breasts... a flash of dream-light and she is tied on one leg, wrist to ankle keeping her delicious body tight... she moans and writhes in her bed, her fingers straying between her legs as the dream gets ever hotter... and wetter... Kate awakes from her bondage dreams to find... she is locked into steel manacles! Bars have appeared on her bedroom window, and the blanket box at the foot of the bed is full of handcuffs! What the hell is going on? |
Archive: Anna tries flying for the first time...Photoset (80 photos) starring AnnaAdded 03-05-2024Tags: rope bondage, barefoot, bedroom, blonde, nude, ungagged Well, tries a flying hogtie for the first time, anyway! Bright as a button Anna hadn't done much bondage before but was willing to throw herself into it, even when she could hardly move to pose she was great at finding fantastic angles and subtle shifts to show herself off to best advantage. Here she is really giving it some enthusiasm for her debut RestrainedElegance.com set! |
New Village Girl Slut-Shamed By The DuchessPhotoset (127 photos) starring Lucy LaurenAdded 02-05-2024Tags: satin, barefoot, blonde, silk, humiliation, chair tie, cloth gag, topless, dress, rope bondage Cute as a button Lucy has just moved to Walsbury-on-the-Naze, a quaint and old-fashioned village in rural Anglia. But her city-girl ways are seen as shameless sluttery by the hide-bound inhabitants, especially those scandalously short dresses she insists on wearing! The villagers make representation to the Duchess, and the newcomer is duly invited up to Walsbury Manse, ostensibly for dinner with the Duchess - but actually so the noble lady can teach the slut a lesson in modest behaviour! |

Ariel Anderssen: Tongue-Gagged CaptiveVideo (16:25 minute video) starring Ariel AnderssenAdded 30-04-2024Tags: gag, satin, barefoot, bedroom, shackles, hogtie, blonde, silk, humiliation, sm factory, leg irons, chains, metal bondage, chinese dress, pantyhose, tights Stunning blonde bombshell Ariel Anderssen is helpless as a captive in a steel posture collar, skimpy satin Chinese dress that rides up to reveal her pantyhose-clad pussy, and a tight metal hogshackle with heavy chain and SM Factory cuffs. But by far the worst part of her ordeal is the tongue-depressor gag which orces her tongue down and makes her drool uncontrollably while completely cutting off her ability to talk. She struggles and moans for help but her captor is implacable. He gropes and molests her and offers her a bargain - if she can push the gag out of her mouth he will let her go free. Otherwise he is going to make a lot of money out of her! |
Archive: The Perfect AccessoryPhotoset (55 photos) starring Natalia ForrestAdded 30-04-2024Tags: barefoot, brunette, leg irons, metal bondage, dress, ungagged, yoke What to do to make herself stand out from all the other girls at the party?

But nothing had been mentioned about what jewellery you were allowed to wear. And Natalia had a rather, errr, SPECIFIC piece in mind. |

Archive: Louisa Lu - Neon NoirPhotoset (128 photos) starring Louisa LuAdded 29-04-2024Tags: rope bondage, barefoot, bedroom, brunette, nude, ungagged, frogtie Please welcome lovely newcomer Louisa Lu to Restrained Elegance! For her debut set I decided to experiment a bit with mixed lighting- this is a single studio flash through a beauty dish providing a quick pulse of strobe to freeze her struggles, balanced with the LED striplights and warm fill from the practical LED spot light behind her using a long-ish exposure. To further add to the Neon Noir vibe I wanted for the set, I used a bunch of crystals and diffraction gratings around the lens to make the strip light LEDs flare and echo in unpredictable ways through the frame. I think the result is a little bit different but sits very well with the classic saturated colours-sharp detail of the RE style. Enjoy! |
Playing The Devil's TuneBride of DarknessPhotoset (492 photos) starring Zoe PageAdded 28-04-2024Tags: ballgown, barefoot, horror, ungagged, redhead, rope bondage Marchioness Zoe is so damn bored. Parties are a chore, suitors as facile, stupid little men, business is unspeakably dull and the only brief flickers of entertainment in her life are her flirtation with music and musicians. Last night she entertained a saturnine foreigner from Chicago who tinkled the piano keys in ways she had never before experienced. This morning, he has left a single manuscript on the piano - "The Devil's Tune". She knows she shouldn't, but the ennui is overwhelming. Almost against her will, she finds herself drawn to the piano. The tune seems simple enough to play, although it gets wilder and wilder. As her fingers tap out the notes, she finds herself playing it! She hadn't meant to, but the tune itself compels and commands. The fugue builds to a crescendo... and there is another presence in the music room with her. A dark entity of lust and sin, a perfect fit to her own jaded appetites. The piano continues to play as her hands leave the keys and a claw reaches out of the formless darkness to grab her, shake her like a rag doll... ropes appear from nowhere to bind her in place! She has played the Devil's Tune, and he will have his due.... |
Archive: Tied By Her TenantsPhotoset (154 photos) starring Sophia SmithAdded 28-04-2024Tags: rope bondage, humiliation, brunette, nude, ungagged Cruel Landlord Sophia Smith is tied by her tenants who take revenge for her rapacious pricing and insistence on her landlord's dues- even such out-dated things as tribute at harvest time and one-tenth of the wool produced from their flocks. The tenants steal into the great hall and capture her after she has been out riding and hunting, and resolve to make her see the error of her wicked ways! |

Archive: The Duke's FavouritePhotoset (77 photos) starring Samantha Olivia-PaigeAdded 27-04-2024Tags: barefoot, leg irons, chains, lingerie, metal bondage, ungagged The Duke's favourite courtesan was many things; beautiful, excellent and intelligent company, always perfectly dressed and made-up. But the best thing about her, the Duke often thought, was that she was so very accommodating of his more experimental ideas. This evening, for example, he'd felt rather nervous as he presented her with a box full of metal restraints. It was something he'd wanted to try for some time, but he was wary of her response. But he shouldn't have worried. Samantha gave a gasp or surprised pleasure and smiled up at him. 'Ohhh, what marvellous fun!' she exclaimed, and started trying to work out how to put them on right away... |

And she really enjoys playing with all the metal! So let's go! Start with the legs and work our way up- nice and tight! Let's slip off the dress and get a bit more comfortable. Then the selection of handcuffs and thumb-and toe-cuffs... maybe trapped toes and trapped ankles? Yes! Definitely... but maybe one more pair on the ankles, to really keep them secure and weighted down? How about the hands? Only trouble is, how is she going to get gagged? I'm sure we can work something out... we've got this nice big red ballgag just here.... |
