Scary Lady Sarah, Chicago 1993 - I usually don’t do conceptual shoots but I periodically did this series where both the model and I were blindfolded.  We would respond to each other mostly by voice, and I would point the camera in the model’s general direction.  Using a manual focus camera, I also had to estimate how far or close she was to the camera.  This was just one of the photos that ‘worked’.  It was later published in my first book “The Beauty of Fetish” (Edition Stemmle, 1998). Photographed with the Canon A1.

Alsana Sin, Joshua Tree CA 2003 Alsana and I had been dating in 2003, and we stayed at the Joshua Tree  Inn outside of Joshua Tree National Park just north of Palm Springs.   Because I’m a huge Gram Parsons fan, I booked a night in Room #8 which  was the room that he died of an overdose of morphine and alcohol in  1973.  I don’t think we channeled his spirit but hopefully he enjoyed  our photoshoot if he happened to be hovering around.  If not, he missed a  great show. www.stevedietgoedde.com

Dara, San Francisco 2000 - Dara had these fantastic PVC thigh-highs which fit her so perfectly.  Sometimes I find it extremely erotic to isolate the focus of the fetish and remove the human element from the photo, such as in case. Don’t get me wrong, normally I love to highlight the personal elements of my models but sometimes the fetish appeal takes over especially when it makes for a compositionally compelling photograph. www.stevedietgoedde.com
