Thiktool Recap 6/17 - Cain

Greetings Patrons!

How about a taste of leather? Can is one of my models who LOVES wearing jockstraps, so I thought I'd mix things up for him and put him in the leather one, along with the matching leather head harness. It suits him, and of course the pouch unsnaps for easy access. Full photo set on my site.

Speaking of leather, if you're in NYC this weekend be sure to stop by Christopher Street on Sunday for Folsom Street East. I'll be there, rope at hand! Say hi if you see me. View Post

Thiktool Recap 6/11 - Dash

Hi Patrons! 

Yesterday I posted a photo set from last weekend's session with Dash. You should have received an uncropped version directly in your email inbox yesterday. (If you didn't see it, check your promotions / spam folder or send me a message.)

For this session I went back to my old style of having the camera on a tripod with a timer to take a photo every 20 seconds. I find the quality to be better, and even though it's not a moving image, I still manage to get a lot of...

Patreon Recap 6/2 - Gimpb0i

Greetings Patrons, and happy gay pride month!

I've been busy with shoots the past couple weeks, and have also been making improvements to my setup--largely thanks to your contributions here.

First, I added another small light to my arsenal which lets me add a fourth color. You may notice that my recent photos are a little more psychedelic looking as I experiment.

Second, I had a friend from Temple View Post

Thiktool Recap 5/20 - Nic

Today Nic (sliqnic on IG) came by for a rope session... out fourth time shooting together. He's hot as ever and the photos are great! Just a few posted so far.

Thiktool Recap - CLAW 2022

Hello Patrons!

I got back to NYC last night from an amazing event--CLAW2022. Thousands of thousands of us kinksters gathered in Cleveland for four days of social fun, educational workshops, demonstrations, and of course play parties. Unlike the other big leather events (IML, MAL, etc.) CLAW is run as a charity and donates the money raised to community charities.

I learned a lot, shared some of my own skills, and best of...

Thiktool Recap 4/26 - Dan

Hi everyone!  

A couple weeks ago I attended a 2-day shibari workshop held by Mistress Chiaki (@yasashiichiaki on twitter), learned a few new ties and got a lot of inspiration for different ways of doing things. My recent session with Dan (pictured) gave me a great chance to practice. It might be hard to tell from this photo, but the harness is tied in a completely different way than I usually do it! There are many more photos on the web site, and you can click through to see them ...

Thiktool Recap 3/29 - San Francisco

Greetings Patrons!

I got back to a shockingly cold (25F) New York City last night after spending a week in San Francisco with Toolboi. We mostly did touristy things, but also had two rope sessions. First, a shoot on the beach (!) which was a lot of fun. My first time in a long time shooting outdoors, and I really loved it. Our second rope session was the live drawing which I posted about previously.

Next up for me is CLAW in Cleveland at the end of the month. But ...

Hot Draw! Tomorrow

Hello Patrons!

I'm currently traveling to San Francisco, so haven't had a lot of time to edit or post photos on the site. But back on Monday and will resume regular programming.

In the mean time, if you're artistically inclined, and whether or not you're in SF, you can join Toolboi and I tomorrow for a live (in person and online) rope and drawing session!

Thiktool Recap 3/19 - Meet Jordan

My session with tattooed hunk Jordan Jameson was a few weeks ago, but I've finally finished editing and posting the entire photo / video package.  An email with links will come through shortly, but everything is available online now! We did quite a few glamour looks, a lovely suspension, and as a finale some edging and ... well you'll just have to check it out.

Thiktool Recap 3/14 - Meet Ernie

Hello Patrons!

This weekend I had a fun and creative photo shoot with Ernie. It was his first time wearing Latex and he really loved it. We made some iconic looks with the large bamboo, blindfold, and spider mouth opener. 

One of the photos went out in yesterday’s Photo of the Day. If you didn’t see it in your email inbox, send me a direct message and we’ll make sure you’re set up properly. This photo is a lighting test, but check the...

Happy New Year / 2021 Recap

Happy New Year patrons!

I want to thank you for your patronage this past year and send you warm wishes for the upcoming one! It’s been another tough year, but thanks to your support I’ve been able to keep up the rope/photography practice safely, and also expand things with some new lighting and video equipment. I really appreciate the support, especially from the long-term patrons who have been with me since the beginning!

Thiktool Recap - 9/26 - New Models Galore

Hi Patrons!

Where did the summer go? 

I’ve been chugging along doing bondage photo shoots and posting the results on my web site and fan sites, but keep forgetting to send out a recap here on Patreon. (Remember that most of what I post on the web isn’t allowed on this platform now.) 

Since the last update here, I’ve done 18 (!!) photo shoots, with many sexy new guys and some of your regular favorites. I was able to squeeze in so many because Toolboi was on ha...

Thiktool Recap - 7/26 - Rico, Gary, Boomer, Will

Hello Patrons!

Tooboi and I have had three sessions since the last recap, and our continuing work on perfecting the lighting setup is really paying off. If you’re following along with the Photo of the Day emails, you saw that we had a hot meetup with Will and Boomer Banks together, and they had some great chemistry! We also had sessions with two newcomers, the dancer Rico (pictured here in a suspension) and super-sexy Gary View Post

Thiktool Recap - 7/17 - Meet Brute

Hi Patrons!

For months I’ve been chatting with a muscle bear from Hawaii* and he finally was able to visit NYC. He turned out to be a really sweet guy and I think we’ll be good friends. We had two sessions, the first for a sexy bondage experience, and the second to create some more artistic photos in the vein of Gengoroh Tagame manga. Luckily Toolboi is also visiting to help with the lights and photography, so the photos came out amazing.

Thiktool Recap - 6/30 - Heat Wave!

Hey Patrons!

I wanted to send out a quick recap before June ended… I hope everyone had a great gay pride month! 

The last week has been spent mostly catching up with Toolboi, but I have managed to edit a few photo sets and videos, up now on the site. It turns out that all the sessions below have video clips too, so if that’s your thing be sure to check them out.

Thiktool Recap - 6/21

Hello Patrons!

Another weekend with two back-to-back sessions!

On Saturday I got to try something new and crazy with a guy who goes by Slimy Athlete on Twitter and Instagram. We set up an inflatable pool, and he brought a few jugs of J-Lube to get things slicked up. It was a long afternoon of rope and wet fun. I didn’t take a lot of photos, given the stickiness of it all, but the video camera was running so there will be clips.

One of your favorite models,...

Thiktool Recap - 6/13

Hey Patrons!

I had a really great birthday weekend. Damian Dragon (pictured) was a house guest, and we had a marathon bondage and ball-busting session on Saturday. As a warmup, I also did a suspension session with Alexander King. A handful of the images have already been posted, but more will be added in the next week or so.

About Last Night: Zeno

Two sessions in two days! 

Yesterday was actually my fifth time tying and shooting with Zeno. He had been dying to try an inverted suspension, and we managed to do it with an agura tie. It turned out to be too much pressure on his hips, but he was in the air and inverted for a couple minutes. Next time we’ll try a more comfortable hip  harness.

We also took some photos and video of him tied to the workout bench, but I’ve got a huge backlog of editing...

About Last Night: Justan

Hey Patrons!

Last night I had a follow-up session with Justan. He’s super sexy and really nows how to move his body for me—even when encased in rope! He’s also a creative spirit and has a lot of patience with me while I try out new things.

The photo above is a new chest-harness variation, and we thought it looked a little like a ram’s head. I’ve also been trying out some new lighting configurations, and love how this one turned out.

The rest of the photo set is mor...

Since the last update I’ve had sessions with two new models, Karl and Justan (pictured above). Had a great time with both, and you’ll be seeing a lot more of them soon.

Hi Patrons!

Things have been slow lately for me, the pinched nerve in my shoulder is back, making it hard to sit and edit photos or videos. Luckily I found a great neurology clinic and relief is in sight!
