First Shoot/Rope Experience


Daizy_Chains (First Photoshoot) – Australia said...
Crossed an item off my bucket list today and did a risqué Pin Up/Glamour photoshoot with Mo in a chic cocktail bar. My first ever modelling experience.... so nervous to start with but ended up having an incredible, empowering experience. I'd love to do it again sometime x



Sienna Breeze (First Rope Experience) - Australia said...
Really enjoyed it and felt very safe and comfortable. Mo talked me through everything which helped a lot.
I wish I wasn't rushed with time! Next time i'll ensure I have no plans afterward 🙂



Contessa Doll (First Rope Experience) – Australia said...
I was nervous at first but found the whole experience fun and comfortable. I like how Mo respected my boundaries. Wish we had more time to shoot (so many ideas).



Sky (First Rope Experience) - Australia said...
It was really interesting experience for me as I have never been tied up before and I had a lot of fun
I felt super comfortable and safe



Meg (First Rope Experience) – New Zealand said...
This was a completely new experience for me which I loved. Mo was so patient, easy to talk to and very professional which made the whole experience even better. He made it easy to relax which made our time fun and I felt very safe. Can’t wait to see what we’ve created. Thank you Mo.



Ceejay Lemon (First Rope Experience) - London, UK said...
First Shibari shoot with Artofsexpression and absolutely loved it !!! Was very fun and relaxed , instantly got on with Mo, and he was happy to answer any questions I had about Shibari , which was a fair bit 🙂 Super fun and chilled to work with, made me feel totally at ease and offered to teach me some basic knots which is wicked !!! Felt very safe. Highly recommended.



Aisha Skye (First Rope Experience) - Australia said...

My time with the photoshoot was great. I felt comfortable the entire time and was asked on a regular basis how I felt which was reassuring. It was a new experience for me using rope and getting to experience that in a safe environment. I would definitely do it again.



Miss Candi Andi (First Rope Experience) - Australia said...
I felt very comfortable and i had a great day and i learned alot which made me happy. Had loads of fun and felt very safe. Everything was planned perfect! I enjoyed being tied up for the first time at the legs - it was a thrill. It was an unimaginable fun and fabulous experience!



Haylee Adams (First Rope Experience) – Australia said...
Great experience! Felt very safe and was lots of fun. Highly recommended. I would love to do it again. X



Honey V (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
I worked with Mo yesterday where he did the rope tying for the shoot. Such a great guy, both as a person and in his work. Mo is very courteous and respectful of the agreed limits, all whilst making awesome shapes and ties with his rope work. He helped me out with my posing during shots as well - invaluable! Mo photographed me in between shots as well, which was a nice addition to the main photographer - the shots on the back of his camera looked great! I wouldn't hesitate to work with Mo again.



R (First Rope Experience) - Australia said...
It was my first one. I didn't know what to expect, as I didn't know what I would like to capture. I would love to do it again 🙂

I had a wonderful experience, very relaxed, easy going, always comfortable and definitely enjoyable.
I thoroughly enjoyed the shoot and look forward to creating more with you in the future 🙂



KameleonKat – Australia said...
I had a great time shooting with Mo, it was great fun and I felt he was always very professional and trustworthy even when I was in the most vulnerable positions.



Brigitte Lucille (Bambi) – Australia said...
I had such a great time. Mo really took the time to get to know myself and the other model & make sure we were comfortable & felt safe & secure. And I am incredibly happy with the result.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Art Of Sexpression & Mo if your looking for something a little different and very beautiful either for your portfolio or private collection.



PrincessTory - Melbourne, Australia said...
Always a pleasure and a wonderful way to spend a day! Mo provides a safe, warm and friendly atmosphere, is great at giving direction and making new models feel comfortable. Highly recommended.



Roshie - Sydney, Australia said...
Mo is an exceptional rope artist, who was a pleasure to work with, and I've worked with some pretty incredible Shibari riggers, so that's saying something!Clear and concise, he was very eloquent in conveying what he needed from me in order to get the shot.

I would 10/10 recommend him, and am planning on working together again in March when we are in the same city again!



Celia Nen - UK said...
We had a great shoot with Mo a few days ago. He is very skillful and creative with rope and knows how to do it safely. I felt comfortable and safe working with him as he is very friendly and respectful. He also had a very unique way of directing models by making me feel so relaxed I could pose in more creative ways than I otherwise could have! It was interesting and definitely helped in getting better results. Looking forward to working with Mo again and I would recommend working with him to anyone interested in a rope shoot! 🙂



Marla Pandora - UK said...
When Jon Downs contacted me asking if I wanted to model for Mo's rope work, I instantly said yes! I had seen his work around and I've always loved the beautiful ties he does. So the three of us arranged to meet in an apartment in London for a shoot. Well... I just can't wait to do it all again!! I've had a good vibe about Mo as soon as I met him, he's so friendly and he was very respectful of my levels by asking right from the start what was ok and what was not. He also asked all the safety questions you usually ask before doing a bondage shoot, which made feel me relaxed instantly.

I cannot believe the number of different ties he did in just one shoot! Mo is fast, efficient, creative, and he always made sure I was feeling ok at all time. We also had some great laugh during the shoot (oooh... the ladle moment hahaha) 😉

I think the three of us made a great team work, it was such a productive shoot and the images looks awesome! I can't wait to work with him again, and again... and again..!! If you are looking for a talented rigger, then you should definitely get in touch with Mo, you will be so pleased with the results. Very highly recommended! Thank Mo and I hope to see you soon! 🙂 Marla x



RebeccaSophia - UK said...
Had a great day with ArtOfSexpression and ChrisD3 last tuesday trying out some rope bondage, he was very respectful and a very interesting man to chat to. Highly recommend for anyone whether you're experienced or not at this type of modelling, he will make you feel completely at ease and take care of you. Thanks again!



Pocotoria said...
I had a fabulous shoot with Artofsexpression yesterday, i had been looking forward to it for some time!We worked with photographer ChrisD who was fabulous and another beautiful model in a barn.

We spoke extensively before shooting which helped a great deal with trust, this was a bondage shoot and we had never met before so it was important for me to feel comfortable and safe.

Artofsexpression is very considerate and respectful, he was very conscious of levels and safety and i never had to worry for a moment.

His rope work is stunning too! i can't wait to see the results

We had so much fun together time just flew by, i would have loved to of done more... alas .. next time!

Highly recommended!



Ella_Hughes - UK Said...
Lovely shoot with Mo, he's a true gentleman who knows what he wants in terms of getting good images. He is a great rigger who pays full attention to how to model is feeling and making sure she is comfortable, I felt very safe during this shoot. I'd really recommend Mo to anyone and hope we shoot again some time



Charmed25 - UK Said...
Had my first shoot with mo today really easy going gives great direction and has some fab ideas he and richard bounced off each other well and was a fun shoot look forward to our next shoot.xx



Vaudethrillian (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
Let's just say I left the shoot after being tied up in such a brilliant mood! I didn't want to be untied! Mo's such a friendly face to work with. Made me feel at ease right away, professional, great communication prior to the shoot and was fun to work with. I want to be tied up in such pretty patterns again. 🙂



mlouisa (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
I had the pleasure of working with Mo last week! Not only is he an incredibly talented rigger, but he was also a wonderful presence on the shoot. He was funny and kept the whole team entertained with interesting conversation. He is very caring which is an important characteristic for his profession. He was always making sure I was comfortable. Very pleasant shoot with him! Would recommend 100%!

Mo tied me on a shoot with a photographer earlier this month. He definitely knows what he's doing with rope, and made clean, high quality ties efficiently. His communication was good and my welfare obviously important to him. I hope we can work together again. 🙂



BexWhite - UK said...
I met and worked with Mo for the first time this week. Mo provided the shibari for a shoot at my home. From the moment I met Mo I knew I would feel entirely comfortable and at ease working with him, He talked me through the safety aspects of the rope work we were doing, and ensured my comfort and safety at all times. I would have no hesitation in recommending working with Mo if you are lucky enough to get the chance - thanks Mo!


ElectricLeech
Electric Leech (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
Mo provided the shibari for a shoot a couple of weeks ago. I was a little nervous before the shoot because tying someone up obviously requires a lot of close contact, but upon meeting Mo all my worries just went away. He is professional, respectful, and very cool! Came up with great ideas and worked with both the photographer and models to create some beautiful poses. What was really reassuring was his awareness of health and safety, he made sure I was comfortable and wasn't going numb or getting pins and needles and was always ready to untie or help change position. Would really like to work with him again sometime!


Paulina
Paulina Maria (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
Had a shoot with Mo the other day, in which he was the rigger. It was my first time being tied up, and he was very patient and explained everything beforehand; he takes safety very seriously. Thanks to him, it was a great first experience. Not only is Mo talented and knowledgable in the art of shibari, but he is also a genuinely lovely person and a great chat. I would recommend him to any model.

I've been admiring Mo's work for quite some time and when a very last minute opportunity to work alongside Mo (with Benu and Ladi Vermin) came along while he was up in York I would have been a fool to turn it down! I have been eager to do some rope bondage for a number of years but was quite wary about working with someone who didn't know their stuff well. Meeting and working with Mo was an utter pleasure as he made me feel at ease and made sure I was comfortable at all times. I was nervous as it was my first time being tied and really didn't know what to expect but I couldn't have asked for anyone better to introduce me to rope bondage. Mo's demeanour was down to earth and we chatted away throughout the afternoon. On the whole, Mo is one of the most genuine and no-nonsense people I've met so far and I look forward to working with him again in the near future. Thank you again Mo 🙂


LadiVermin
Ladi Vermin - UK said...
Worked with Mo on 2 sets (Friday and saturday) With the fab Miss Plastik and Amber Jewell. I feel very honoured to have met someone so talented at his craft and so glad to have snapped up the chance while he was up in Yorkshire! The shoots were discussed at length prior to shooting so everyone was made to feel at ease and knew what was expected. Mo is a gent but also very relaxed and up for a giggle - Nothing worse than awkwardness on set! I felt very safe in his hands and at no point under pressure to do anything i didn't feel comfortable with. Thank you very much mo. Come back soon 🙂 ***



AmberJewell (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
I had the pleasure of working with Mo yesterday, for a soft girl/girl shoot and a solo rope shoot. He is really good with his pre shoot comms, sending image and outfit ideas, so I was able to prepare well. Mo has a very particular style of shoot he would like to achieve and his direction reflects this. He is a true gent, he was calm, chatty and very polite throughout and due to the nature of our shoot, (and it being my first time being tied up), he was continually checking to make sure I was comfortable in all the positions and rope ties. He was very respectful of limits and constantly checked to make sure I was ok with the shoot. I think we achieved some great images and can’t wait to see them. I would defiantly recommend Mo to any model. 🙂



Artemis Fauna - UK said...
I had a great shoot with Mo yesterday alongside Mel Pettit. Mo got in touch a few weeks ago and I instantly picked up on Mo's enthusiasm and passion on the subject of rope- it was infectious. I felt instantly inspired on a subject I had kind of 'put in a box' for a long time. Yesterday was a really great day. Fun, creative and we all walked away with some superb images. I am certain it won't be the last time I work with Mo. I loved the rope work Mo created and felt safe at all times- which is very important when shooting bondage. Thank you Mo, see you again soon!



Megz2411 (First Rope Experience) - UK said...
Had a great day on Sunday shooting with Mo and Paul. It was my first time being tied up and Mo was very patient. He asked me all the way through if I was ok. He was a true gent. He has a lot of great ideas and I enjoyed chatting with him. He made me feel relaxed and at ease. The images he took are brilliant. Would recommend working with him 🙂



Jeyda Miller - UK said...
I highly recommend Mo, very creative and made me feel so comfortable. i admire his enthusiasm and pride of work. would love to work with him again and i am very happy with the results 🙂 was a pleasure to work with you and meet you x



Arizona Sky - UK said...
Mo asked me to stand in for another model who couldn't make the shoot which was to take place the very next day and I'm glad I accepted because he was a joy to work with. Unfortunately, I was unexpectedly delayed on my way to the shoot but Mo was so understanding and patient about it and when I finally arrived, we had a great shoot. This happened to be a rope bondage shoot but I knew I could trust Mo implicitly with his knowledge and expertise regarding most kinds of rope work. He's also friendly, polite, easy going and considerate of my comfort when tied up! He was also very receptive to my own ideas and input during the shoot which was great. We worked together with Phil Spencer who did the photography and as a team, we managed to achieve some really good images. Highly recommended for any rope bondage shoot!



Elena Iris said...
Mo is very creative with his rope and photography. Professional, respectful and very friendly. Highly recommended for more!



Horace Silver - UK said...
I had the chance to work with ArtOfSexpression only one time, for a short shoot where he acted as rigger and not as photographer. None of us had much time, and that's my only regret : it was too short! ArtOfSexpression has a great sennsibility in the art of Bondage/Shibari and he is able to magnify the beauty of the model's body with his ropes. The way he organises the ropes is in itself a piece of art. He masters the technical skills needed for bondage and listens to the model's feelings during the bondage, always attentive to his/her safety and comfort. You can rely on him. Hope to work with him again soon!

What I can say about Mo (ArtOfSexpression) ?? Man with passion, vision, open minded and creative. I was a little afraid about our work, my first time with Rope Art, but if there will meet two people with creative ideas, U can make nice work. I will back soon.



Phil Spencer said...
Had a good shoot with Mo. He really helped get the best out of the model, and obviously knew his rope work. We had an extended shoot, due to unforeseen delays, and afterwards chilled at mine having a beer. Recommend him for any rope work.



SimonsPhotography said...
Mo What a great guy, he made the model very comfortable and worked always within set boundaries I look forward to working together with Mo in the future and exploring the professionalism that he brings to the rope art.



PHPhotography said...
Had a great shoot with Mo who did the ropework on a Betty Page/Dita Von Tease style shoot with Megz2411. He is very knowledgeable and creative with his ropework, very professional ensuring that our model was completely comfortable at all times, explaining exactly what he was going to do before starting and respectful of agreed levels. Highly recommended and I look forward to working with him again in the future.



Mel Pettit said...
I had the opportunity to work with Mo last week at a shoot with Artemis Fauna as the model. Bondage was an area that had interested me before, but not having knowledge of ropework or the necessary skill I hadn't pursued the matter. Then Mo contacted me and a shoot with Artemis was arranged. I was fascinated and amazed by the expertise that Mo demonstrated throughout our hours together. The location offered the choice of many different styles and types of ropework and Mo showed his professionalism and knowledge throughout the whole shoot, coming up with many different ties of different styles. Mo was careful to ensure that the model was comfortable and not under any undue or unwanted stress. A master of his craft, Mo is a totally nice guy too, easy to work and communicate with. I hope to work with him again soon. Highly recommended by me.



ElenaIsacTOG said...
Ref from Thomas Saunders: This was my first time meeting and working with Mo, and although I was a little apprehensive at first, his warm friendly nature and demeanour soon dispelled such feelings completely. He was enthusiastic and amusingly informative throughout the day, worked with confidence with his rope work and was always open to try out new things. Will definitely be working with him again, do recommend indeed!



ElenaIsacTOG said...
Worked with Mo a few days ago and have previously worked with him before. Very gentle in character and was always willing and happy to assist in idea generation and creative positioning throughout the day. Was very professional and confident with his work and even showed us some basic tying methods. Also found him to be great fun to work with, very patient with both models and photographers and highly enthusiastic. Am definitely planning on further shoots with him, and I would surely recommend him too.



Mel Pettit said...
I worked as a photographer with Mo for the second time, on this occasion on a shoot with Bex White at her home. Mo did the the shibari for the shoot to a fantastically high standard again, as he did on our first shoot together. On a technical level Mo has a massive knowledge of the subject and works very closely with the model - and the photographer - ensuring that we all knew what was going to happen. Throughout the shoot Mo was checking continuously with the model to ensure her comfort and safety. On a personal level Mo's people skills are superb and I felt very comfortable and at ease working with him. I was relaxed in the knowledge that the model was safe throughout the whole of the tying process. Easy to communicate with, with a wealth of creative ideas and superb company, I have no hesitation in recommending Mo as highly as I can to models used to rope-work or those looking to do their first shoot. If you get an opportunity for Mo to tie you, take it!



Colbrin said...
MO I got the chance to work along side Mo on a stills/BTS video shoot. Literally 2 seconds after he spoke i knew we would get along just fine. He is Passionate about what he does. Super Knowledgeable Seasoned Friendly Caring Enthusiastic And most importantly very very very easy to get along with. His rope work is Fantastic too. He made sure the models were comfortable with the ropework and positions at all times. Safety conscious and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend using his skills or working with him again. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MO!!!

ElenaIsacTOG said...
I have worked with Mo several times now and still manage to enjoy the results more each time. He is really confident, fast and fun to work with and his ideas for tying methods which are seemingly endless!

his way with rope is very second nature and he is always open to sharing some of his knowledge of the techniques and such.

I can’t recommend him enough to anyone wanting to have a shibari themed shoot, and that’s goes equally so if you’re fresh on the scene or are a seasoned photographer alike.


Elena Isac
ElenaIsacTOG said...
Worked with him for the 4th time now, a highly professional and dedicated rigger, who is happy to give creative input both during the tie up process and also during the shoot itself.is also eager to collaborate at any level of the process of a tie up.definitely recommend him.



Jon Ovington said...
Mo contacted me proposing a shoot during a recent visit to Sydney. Based on his ideas we collaborated a plan of attack and Mo had sourced the gorgeous Roshie Model to work on this shoot with us.

His attention to detail is admirable, he was well planned, knows what he wants and ensured everything went perfectly. His rigging skills are amazing, to him it appeared effortless and the results were spectacular. I had some hiccups with my gear but Mo rolled with the punches with little concern.

The end results are great, I'd be most happy to work with Mo in the future.

I had the pleasure of working with ArtOfSexpression on a shoot with Laura Draycon at my place in Brixton. It was a great experience working with someone who is so skilled in rope work and it was fascinating watching him at work.AoS worked really well with Laura and the respect and attention that he gave her was very impressive.

I'm really pleased with the images we got from the day - I haven't managed to do the editing yet, but I know we have some cracking shots in there.

Thumbs up from me and it was a real pleasure to see AoS at work doing some superb rope.



ChrisD3 - UK said...
Did a rope bondage on location shoot with ArtOfSexpression yesterday afternoon ( Monday 4th July ) He was punctual and well prepared with rope, caribiners and safety scissors for our shoot with two models.My findings of ArtOfSexpresion are as follows : Experienced rope artist that is reliable, responsible and respectful.

He was efficient with his ties and mindful of the models' levels plus of course the all important part - Health & Safety

Recommended by me 🙂



Raphael said...
Had a shoot with this kind gentleman with a new model yesterday and I was very impressed by the sensitivity and care he took in making sure all was well with the model whilst working. We had limited time due to circumstances but we managed to get some awesome shots...

I really hope to work with him again.. Definitely recommend him to all..



ChrisD3 - UK said...
ArtOfSexpression and I teamed up with a model on here called RebeccaSophia for a location shoot on Tuesday the 19th of July.

This was new territory for Becca and Mo dealt with matters appropriately and was very understanding of the situation.

I re-iterate what I stated below in a previous reference - Recommended



ChrisD3 - UK said...
THE Hat-trick ! .... ArtOfSexpression and I did our third shoot together today with two models on here ( Anna Rocks & Liere von Can. Once again rope bondage on location, and Mo was great

This guy is cool, laid back but very serious about his rope artistry work.

I'd love to shoot with him again but sadly he is going back to Australia soon, and I have other pressing things to deal with.

Thanks for everything Mo !



Jon Downs said...
I had the absolute pleasure of working with the rope talent that is ArtOfSexpression (henceforth know as Mo) a little while ago.We had discussed the idea of a collaboration for many months before it finally came to fruition but when it finally happened ... wow! With the addition of our model for this shoot, the ever gorgeous Marla Pandora, the team was complete.

We spent a whole day cooped up in an apartment with sweltering weather while we banged through set after set of rope artistry that is hard to surpass - the agreement at the start of the day was to go for quick ties to add to the spontaneous feel we wanted the photos to have - Mo did his work with great aplomb.

Mo is a star; he's talented, funny and absolutely awesome to work with - we got some absolute crackers!!

I have no hesitation in recommending and really look forward to working with him again one day.

thanks so very much Mo for a fantastic shoot!


Raw_and_the_cooked said...
A very cool guy, and an excellent rigger for my first ever shibari shoot with rope bunny and Charmed! We all felt in a very safe place in his hands!
I expect his photography will rapidly become as accomplished as his rigging!



ChrisD3 - UK said...
Been a long time but I got to shoot with ArtOfSexpression again yesterday, and this time along with CeejayLemon.

As per usual, rope bondage on location 🙂

Mo was his usual self i.e. fun, creative and professionally minded.

Would love to shoot with Mo again before he goes back home to Australia but for various reasons I do not think we will be able to secure another shoot in time, which is a great shame 🙁

I recommend him as a rope artist. Thanks Mo, high fives ! 🙂
