Frequently Asked Questions


Does it hurt?

Depends! It really depends on the position of the body, position and tightness of ropes, and your own comfort levels. There are plenty of decorative ties that aren’t uncomfortable at all but can be worn just like a piece of clothing. Not all ties are inherently restrictive.


Does Shibari always involve nudity?

No! A model could easily be fully clothed and still be able to take beautiful portraits.


Can my friend or partner be with me?

Of course! I love teaching and promoting shibari.


What if I want a specific design, color, or pattern?

Ask! It helps to have something in mind for me to work off of whether it be a place you want to shoot, or a position, etc.
