Bondage Here invites you to uncover the mysteries of bondage with their collection of kinky fetish photos and movies. Looking through the tour, I was impressed with both the quality of the preview pics and the elaborate ropework they use to bind their models. They promise both erotic bondage and professional bondage inside, and that these are real shoots with real people, not models with fake emotions. The focus isn't on sex, though there is plenty of nudity and some orgasms. Instead, the majority of the scenes feature beautiful women getting in and out of their restraints.
The Goods -
All of the content on Bondage Here is exclusive and, as they promise, guaranteed quality. That's one of the advantages of shooting your own content, you can make sure each and every set looks awesome and exactly how you want it. Clearly they pay a lot of attention to detail, from setting up the location to administering the restraints which often look inescapable. Their photographers also seem to know what they're doing, with each image sharp, well-lit, and interesting. Photos come in two sizes with the larger a very nice 1296x864. The videos also look good but they really shine in the photos.
Updates come pretty often with an average of two new galleries and videos added each week. The latest updates are posted right on the member's index page so you'll have no trouble finding them. It's good to see the site is continuing to grow.
The Bads -
I didn't care for the design of the site, finding it a bit too simple, and the navigation is awfully simple, as well. The design features mostly text on a black background. There are minimal graphics, which is a far cry from the professional looking tour. As far as navigation, the sets are easy enough to find, listed both chronologically and by model, but there's a lot of room for expansion. Since the content is so varied, categories would be nice to have. On the model pages it would be nice to have thumbnails of the galleries and not just titles. Also, they've gone to the trouble of listing the devices each model uses (butt plugs, chains, collars, etc), and they even link to a page with a photo of the device. It would be awesome if on that page they listed the galleries where you can see that device used. The site design and navigation are functional but they could easily be made more user-friendly.
The collection is still a bit small. You'll find just about 6,000 photos and 81 videos. That's certainly not bad, but there's a lot of room to grow, expecially in the photo section. It'll be good when they pass the 100 video mark, as well.
Conclusion -
Bondage Here has got a great looking collection, I'd just like to see them get their site up to par. With a sharper design and more user features, this site would feel like the professional project the quality of the content suggests it to be. The price is a bit high at $30 a month, but I've still got to call it fair considering that updates come frequently and this is original fetish content. Bondage Here is certainly one to watch as it grows but even now I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys quality bondage photography.
