Review
Shackled Maidens combines glamour photography with BDSM and fetish themes. It's very much a solo posing site, though I saw at least one spread featuring two women together. The emphasis is definitely on bondage as an artful expression rather than as sheer raunchy debauchery. It certainly raises the bar a bit by being rather classy, although the models are what I would judge as highly attractive rather than perfectly beautiful girls. Nevertheless, it's the lack of perfection that makes it all the more enticing.

I praise ShackledMaidens for knowing that glamour shots are shown best in super high-res images. It currently has 570 photo galleries with superb-looking pictures. As to their artistic merit, some sessions succeed very well while others have an almost campy quality, being a tad too stiffly posed with overly complex lighting.

There are also 30 videos. The dramatic vignettes can be downloaded in excellent-quality MPEGs, among other formats. I am quite surprised by how such short, slightly overacted movies pleased me so. Somehow, the glossy camp of a well done-up woman pretending to squirm and writhe with pain is more erotic than if the acting was more convincing.

Additional content includes a model index where you can find tidbits of info about the bound babe. The toy section was unavailable - again. The members forum continues to be active, though. There you will find a section with member requests. 

Updates roll in a few times a week and the quality of this collection continues to improve. After seeing how the reasonably monthly membership Shackled Maidens charges, I'd say this one is a no brainer for lovers of erotic bondage art.
