This is one of those strange fashion shots where I can think of only two explanations. Either the photographer isn’t kinky at all, but wanted to shoot something that was, and so just threw a bunch of random kinky stuff into a scene. Or the photographer is extremely kinky, with a very specialized niche taste, and is therefore shooting on a frequency I just can’t pick up on. Whichever of those it is, I do like the china and her beautiful red corset.
This was shot by Aleksandar Alek Živković for Vice Serbia. I found it on labstrakt’s tumblr.
As you know, I tend to think such things are created by photographers and producers who aren’t exactly kinky themselves, but who figure that if they toss a whole bunch of kink-related tropes into a scene, stir it up, and bake for 45 minutes, that they will automagically have themselves something edgy.
Yes. I can understand it a little more for mainstream fashion or publicity shots, where their audience probably isn’t predominantly kinky. Then the fact it’s edgy and sexual is all they need. It’s stranger for specific porn shots (like you linked to), where you’d expect a slightly better understanding of kinks, given their target audience.
For this particular image, am I genuinely undecided if it’s a random grab bag of stuff or created with a specific kinky niche in mind.

I do actually pay a very lovely lady to tie me up and ignore me while enjoying a nice cup of tea. Admittedly, I’m usually on the floor, not bolt upright like that. But I like the idea and I liked the picture too! So maybe I’m in the specific kinky niche.
Sounds like a nice place to be, anyway. I’ve always wanted a room with a specific kinky niche.
Ah, you should have visited Seattle when Lady Lydia was still active. She had a special small room at the back of the dungeon that functioned as a cell, and then for the truly dedicated there was a special kinky niche behind that one! Not really me thing, but for those with that preference, it was a perfect little niche for stashing away slaves while she drank tea :).
I guess if you like the image, then the photographer was definitely in the zone he was aiming for!
