my cataract surgery is now complete for both eyes ... I hope to be back on your screen very soon.

I wish you a lot of surprises in 2026

My cataract surgery on the right eye happened ... no complication so far and an interesting result for distance vision. A check-up is scheduled soon before another operation in January to regain some independence. One solved issue among others : 2025 has been devastating for me.

Last days before my eye's surgery ... I'm waiting for this moment for half a year and hope everything will be okay. In theory, some news will be posted in a while : may the force be with me. You never walk alone but, sometimes, there is no one else for such a battle. Let's pray !

As expected, there is no time for social media or blog updates right now. I prepare several things before my eye surgery scheduled in December and hope it won't change after the next appointment with anesthetist.

It was the second time Anaïs wore latex and her love for this material has continued to grow over time. During the photo series made for Lady Femdom earlier that day, Anaïs had the same outfit but in red : an opportunity for me to know what worked best with her hair color.

As a final game, I attached her toe to the taut leash : a precarious but transient position from which we quickly freed Diva, balancing on one leg. I should have shot her tied hair to show that the captive was being held by a rope linked to my suspension beam. #mistress #submissive #domination

#7969 underlines my taste for eyes and smiles : Diva’s chest is adorned by a decorative accessory in harmony with the metal collar and this leash held by Anaïs. Several attempts were required before each nipple jewel remained in position. What do you think about it ? #fetish #photography #portrait

You can feel they both loved this situation : Anaïs was already getting nicely closer to Diva during her first session with another woman. #7931 is one of my favorite shots, probably for this attitude full of sensuality accentuated by a particular head posture. #submissive #mistress #powerexchange

It was time to free her breasts from the bra … these twins deserved to be exhibited & even adorned soon with the same metal that surrounded her throat. Don't you like a barefoot captive cuffed in the back ? No more high heels to limit the inevitable discomfort after a while. #collared #beauty #bdsm

I wanted Diva to evolve by embracing all the roles of the BDSM universe. Now that her nudity limit had been broken, learning the codes of submission seemed like a good idea. Being held on a leash was one of those steps that every submissive must discover one day … #bdsm #latex #submissive

Her wrists still handcuffed, the submissive apprentice was forced to kneel, Diva's back bent and her head held by a rope that caught the hair but also this tighter collar. An equally static position for a few shots before continuing this photo series 214-02 ... #mistress #cage #domination

I encounter some problems with my hosting company for several days ... that's why Captive Culture isn't working properly right now. I don't know how to fix it and requested some help from the support team. Sorry !

Some shots like #7631 are interesting, but I would have liked to offer you a video full of giggles and moans … perhaps Diva would have shown more enthusiasm if Anaïs had slapped her bum ? Anyway, after being tied to the cage, Diva slipped inside for more restraint. #submissive #bum #lingerie

Immobilizing my model with her legs spread wasn't the best option because it limited her ability to move for our video sequence. You will find in this update several clips shot when Diva was tickled by Anaïs but we failed to make this moment playful. #mistress #collared #submissive

The next scene was devoted to the bowl ritual : a game that Anaïs discovered one year later, lapping up this water like a pet being trained. It was near this container that we placed one length of rope to introduce the upcoming bondage. #submissive #training #powerexchange

Back in 2005, we used one pair of handcuffs as a transition tool between the different positions explored in this photo series 214-02 ... before and after the Mistress took care of her submissive with a metal collar, deliciously locked by a small but efficient padlock. #latex #ingerie #domination

I really like photo #7112 … my muse’s smile and gaze clearly show her pleasure in experiencing this first session with another woman : I think Anaïs enjoyed undressing Diva. It was the second time Anaïs wore latex and her love for this material has continued to grow over time. #shiny #latex #smile

Today I will try to post on CC an update which was almost ready when chaos went back in my life on June 19 ... it could be the last one before the eye's surgery scheduled soon. Please send me your positive energy !

No special memories about this bedroom session except I wasn't in a good day. Anyway, We shot some interesting pictures of Anaïs wearing her bicolor wig … after a while fighting with my rope, I got the idea using some tape to immobilize Anaïs and our feeling became much better.

One day, I decided to take my own pictures … Captive Culture was created on 2000, September 28 with two photo series. It was 25 years ago, I should have prepared a special post for this moment but the daily routine is too complicated right now. I'm so sorry !

I didn't forget the ones who love my images but it's hard for me to know how to go on right now ... I've considered stopping my blog but it doesn't seem like the best way to escape current problems. Your support has always been important and interacting with others is essential.

when some wonderful memories become painful on the calendar

After a month without any post, you guessed that something happened ... I am currently going through a major crisis in my life, more painful than the previous ones. It is impossible for me to explain the problem now but you can contact me, any friendly message will be welcome.

Two weeks before the photo series with Angelina, Mina was bound wearing the same kimono ... of course, this session has been more intense : she loved to be challenged using some strict ties. Mina also got the magic wand, widely exposed to my lens for an explicit video clip.

We shot the bondage photo series below to finish a long afternoon in my studio. Just before, Angelina played the dominant teacher with Anaïs as her obedient student … she left her latex outfit and slipped into a silk kimono for this first rope experience.

My model didn't imagine we would remove the red seat under her tied body ... she was anxious thinking about a joke first but we did it for real without any issue. Angelina ended on the floor, safe and happy : she learned every rope session could be full of surprises. #barefoot #bondage #kinbaku

Angelina had no difficulty with nudity and you can feel her experience as a photo model in the shots #6189 vs #6188 ... she still listens to my instructions despite the fatigue and the ropes, adapting her posture to tighten these ties which limit any movement. #bondage #model #photography

Considering the inexperience of my model, I didn't stretched this length of rope which attracts my critical eye in photo #6181. It was better to begin the conclusion of her first time and our session because Angelina had been tied up for almost an hour ... #shibari #session #discovery

It was time to immobilize the other leg by making it leave the ground. I tied her foot before raising it using the rope that attaches to the lower part of this harness under tension. I then went back to the thigh to tie it to her calf ... intricate position for a discovery ! #bdsm #rope #bondage

I let Angelina find the least uncomfortable position while her right leg was tied to the rope harness. I took her foot before binding this ankle, which was then hooked to an anchor point in the wall. This rope supported her leg while keeping it bent and open. #bondage #model #photography

I opened the kimono by sliding it over her left breast to show this curve slightly accentuated by my ropes ... but also, perhaps, a perceptible arousal. What's your opinion watching #6125 ? I like Angelina's attitude & sparkling eyes in that shot even if my framing is better here. #sexy #tied #girl

After partially freeing her and seating on a low piece of furniture, I exposed Angelina's beauty a little more. You will probably like this careful hair removal, in vogue at that time : the pleasure of smooth skin combined with the silky nature that a woman likes to preserve. #bondage #model #body

That's how we did several positions to end our day : Angelina has been bound for one hour ... I kept the same basis which immobilized her arms in the back & cinched her breast in a comfortable harness. As a warm-up, I held Angelina to three hooks firmly anchored in the wall. #bound #woman #shibari

Angelina has never been bound before so we started slowly to let her enjoy & relax a bit. She was an amateur photo model who didn't know the fetish universe : I explained bondage can be fun and safe ... Anaïs confirmed it by being tied to conclude our first session (243-03). #bondage #kimono #ropes

2006, May 06 : my second shooting with Angelina was also her first time in bondage. I did a progressive ropework to make her discovery as enjoyable as possible. Six weeks earlier, Angelina had a sample watching Anaïs being bound before to tease her for a playful moment together. #rope #tied #girl

Angelina didn’t know bondage before this first day together ... we ended our session with Anaïs to show how ropes can be nice and safe. I let her tease my muse, happy to be bound ... Angelina liked this playful situation. She discovered it a few weeks later for the next update.

This photo series from 2007 was a tribute to a session we did four years earlier with Dana + Ambre. Anaïs wore the same PVC outfit but Mina was dressed differently, more like a student. The two girls watched these images on my computer before I asked them to do something similar.
