Supercool fetish photographer Steve Diet Goedde has a DVD out: "Living Through Steve Diet Goedde." It features the likes of Dita Von Teese, Aria Giovanni, Gina Velour, Kumi, and Masuimi Max. This Saturday, Steve will be signing and selling copies at Erotica LA. To boot, Xeni Jardin gives a glimpse of herself through Steve's eyes today on bOingbOing.
For an artist who deals with women donning fantasy costumes, Goedde seems determined to present us with the real person. It's a choice left up to the model. Some are content with the persona they've created. Others can't help revealing themselves, like Isabelle Sinclair, whose PVC corset and skirt belie the look of calm expectation on her face. Tuula stares up at the camera with a look of dark vulnerability, as does a model named Kumi. There's a luxuriant relaxation to the shot of adult film star Aria Giovanni lying on a couch in buckled leather panties, her arms under her head spreading out her hair. It's the look of someone who has dropped the porn come-hither pose to relax into being herself.
