Hi A/all!
I can't believe it but I've been an independent pro Domme now for 5 years!
As I've often said, I had no idea how much work, commitment and passion it'd take to become a private Mistress and build My own studio. The windfall gain has most certainly been how I've grown in that time though and the things I've accomplished - not just the fact that Tokyo is alive, well and still whipping yo' ass!
I've become a much more accomplished Domme than I ever could have been if I'd stayed at a commercial house. I've really been able to spread My wings and distill My own particular session style. I've gone a lot further into fetish and BDSM than I ever thought possible - and I love it!
I've become a published mojo (mobile journalist) for Tony Mitchell's TheFetishistas.com, covering the local Australian kink and fetish scene, with the odd foray into international events.
I've become a renowned fetish model, mainly via Bootlovers.com. (We have another issue out soon, btw. Yes, you WON'T BELIEVE the boots I'm wearing!)
I was awarded the honour of "Sydney Ms Leather 2012", competing in San Francisco in March 2012 for the "International Ms Leather" title. As this year's titleholder, I'm a notable at Sydney Leather Pride Events alongside the fabulous Richard Savvy, "Sydney Mr Leather 2012". Under this mantle, I've started My own public monthly GLBTIQ rope bondage group, called "Rope Flow".
I've designed and manufactured My own latex for My personal wardrobe, totally unique heavy play gear for My own studio and custom garments for select members of the Sydney community.
In addition to all this, I continue to enjoy the most amazing creative collaboration with Lucas Messerer from Soul Focus Studio. Luke and I work so well together, Me posing in My best and him behind the camera making his magic images. I've been so lucky to work with Luke - as well as to be able to call him a solid buddy.
To celebrate the fabulous occasion, here's a sneak peek of a new shoot Luke and I did, just a few weeks back!
Want to see what else Luke has been up to recently? Click on the pic below to go to his site, see his work and even to buy one of his books! (Yes, those ARE My ballet booted legs! lol)
These images have just hit the web at deepdownandkinky.com, too - so see them here and on this infamous UK-based fetish blog, watched by so many!
If you want to catch up with what else Craig at DDK has been posting, click on the banner below to go to his blog. You'll be sure to see images of Me there, every now and then! ;)
I'm really proud to say that I'm still charged up and creatively stimulated, 5 years later!
I can't wait to see what the next 5 years will bring and, for sure, if you knew what I'm currently working on, you'd be damn excited too! ;) ;) ;)
Best,
MT
