The Bondage Photography Workshop!


I only have this one picture to share with you right now but hopefully there will be more to come! I remembered everything except my own camera so now I am waiting for participants to e-mail me shots!

We had 3 models (Lorelei, Kendra and Jenya) and 8 photographers. Our maximum number allowed is 10 so 8 was a good manageable amount for the first time doing this! We started with all 3 girls tied seperately on different sets, we did that a couple of times and then I suspended Kendra...and everyone wanted to photographer that!!!

For the last couple of hours I tied all 3 models together which everyone loved, especially the last tie which was a really, beautiful entngled nude!!! I am really hoping someone e-mails me shots of that!

The next workshop is on December 4th. I haven't booked the models yet and will update my site with that information as soon as I have it! This will also be a photography workshop, other dates after that will be half photography and half rigging lesson.

Of course, check out www.bondageexpert.com for more details!

Editing Photos!!!


Mmm, well actually I'm not really editing them. I am in the sense that I am sorting through and putting them in order, etc but as far as re-touching goes I'll be sending them off for that. I simply cannot retouch images well enough for a book.

I'm giving you a sneak preview with this picture! Most of the book has women tied but as it is written for both male and female rope bottom's/Top's I wanted to show that. The gorgeous Sydnee Capri is riding her tied up man for some simple, comfortable and sexy bondage sex!

I don't have a release date yet for the book: "Bondage for Sex"...honestly it really depends on how quickly can get these pictures chosen. It is taking a lot longer than I thought it would!

Take care,

Chanta

Ugh, Unpacking Hell!!!

The first day we moved in I got so much done. The entire mater bedroom with all clothes and the huge majority of the kitchen. Had I have continued at that rate the house would now be fully unpacked and may start to feel like home. Unfortunately I haven;t had a chance to do any unpacking since that first day!

What is most annoying is all of the little things that you discover are wrong with a place after you move in; like finding a hold in the ground in the 2nd bedroom closet that you never knew about, and the toilet is clogged and the shower head is fucked! The house is 112 years old so obviously all of the doors don't close fully (they stick) and the shower leaks doown into the garage LOL!!!! Honestly with the price of SF real estate you would think what you would get would be perfect but the harsh reality is that once you move in the repairs begin. Agh, the joys of home ownership! I never realised how easy it was to just phone the landlord when something didn't work!!!

I did the bondage photography workshop yesterday and it went really well! I'll write more about it as soon as I get some shots to share with you!

Take care,

Chanta

I'm stressed out!!!!


We were meant to close escrow today but there has been all sorts of problems.

Firstly there was some 3 day grace period required by federal law in reagrds to refinances that we didn;t know about. So, we signed on Monday and that meant closing on Thursday. Now the problem is bloody AAA insurance. Of course to close escrow you need to show evidence of insurance and bloody AAA are impossible to get a hold of and are then asking for stupid things we cannot yet provide...like a deed with pur names on it! Um, you have to close escrow before your name is on the deed...thus you see the catch 22.

I suppose it will be worth all of the hassle and stress but damnit, we're moving at 8am tomorrow morning and then can;t sleep there because of all of this crap! It is so disrupting too. I keep having to change, move and cancel plans, shoots, classes I have.

Okay, gotta go and be a bitch to AAA. They have 23 minutes to get me what I need or I'll be calling AllState who have promised me an evidence of insurance within an hour. With AAA it's been 3 days and no cigar...imagine how crap they must be if your house actually burnt down!

See ya, Chanta
p.s. Pic is of my new office in the house!

Packing Boxes...and more Boxes!

Agh! It is never ending!

So yesterday Marty and I went to the title company and signed our lives away (LOL) as well as handing over a huge cheque that represented how hard I have worked (and not bought myself anything) for many years. It's certainly nice to know I will own a small (very small) piece of America's most expensive city but it is also petrifying.

When it rains it pours right! I'm trying to edit pictures for my book (no time) as well as pack, move on Thursday, see immigration on Friday and teach the bondage photography workshop on Sunday. Today I am not going to pack until 2pm. So that gives me almost 4 hours to answer e-mail and get everything ready for immigration. Now, I know the US is not quite ready for Chanta Rose but I do hope they will let me stay!

Until next time, kisses!

Ksex Radio with Mika Tan!

Well, I'm now back in SF after a few very busy days in LA! One of the many highlights was being a guest on Mika Tan's radio show: "Me So Horny"! She even arranged to have a bondage virgin hot girl there for me to tie up and flog...and fo course, with Mika being Mika she misbehaved and forgto to thank me so she also had her tits flogged (much harder than the virgin girl of course)! For those that didn't see/hear the broadcast I am hoping to get a tape to put on my site: http://www.bondageexpert.com but I may have to wait a while!

I'll write again soon and tell you how the shoots went.

Take care,
Chanta

A New Home!



So, my mother and father in law are staying with me right now...and it's just me and them as Marty (my partner) is shooting for his website on location in the Santa Cruz mountains!

But anyway, Marty and I are buying an apartment and really wanted to show it to the in laws so off we went to see it today! I have to say I just LOVE our new home! It is everything we both wanted which is fantastic because we kept seeing places that had great kitchens (something I want) and then no deck (something he wanted and vice versa...well now we will have both! And speaking of kitchesn I have attached a picture of it! I just love to cook so the kitchen is the most important room in the house for me!

I'm trying to get things moving with immigration but damn this country can be difficult! Hey, I'm not a terrorist; I just like to tie people up and make them cum! What's wrong with that! My attorney says he can "try" to help me with my case...sounds ominous huh! Oh well, I know how to play the game, I may be Dominant by nature but if the INS says jump, I will say how high!

Hectic...my life is Hectic!


Seriously, when it rains it pours right?

My Mother-in-law flew in today and is actually moving in! She came from CT and even already has a job here...I knew it was only a matter of time until she made the move seeing as her 3 sons are here. Thankfully I get along with her very well but I do still have to hide the porn!

The booking for my book shoots in LA next week are coming along slowly but nicely! The studio is set, the props are being delivered and the photographer is ready to shoot! I will be heading down on Monday to supervise deliveries and then Tues/Wed is full on days of shooting before heading back here...why so fast you wonder? Well as soon as I get back I need to start packing up the house because I am moving! It is a shame though as I won't get to visit all of my LA friends like I would like too!

The picture is of Seven taken on the nude section of Baker Beach. I actually wanted to have the Golden Gate Bridge in the background but it was sooo overcast. Seven is one of my very favorite bondage models and will also be shooting for my book next week.

Take care, Chanta!
