BDSM is often something that is taken very seriously, perhaps too seriously. Most of us have probably encountered a situation during a session in which laughter has been more important than the serious.
This image brings out the laughter in me, it always creates joy when people are invited to laugh and this is an image which offers itself, unconditionally and without prestige. Humor and warmth has definitely a place in BDSM, as opposed to all structures and rules that we use.
When you take such a picture, it is required that the people who you work with are honest and capable of exposing themselves in front of the camera. These are characteristics that this picture shows a in very clear manner, and when I look at the picture I seem to feel the confidence and trust that exists between the couple.
To me BDSM is a joy, but there is no joy without a laughter being present and this image is very successful in communicating this.
