Rope Rookie Review

Often times, bondage sites have a huge dimension of hardcore, or at least a good measure of punishment being doled out by dominants. However, Rope Rookie is a softcore site with a focus on erotic art rather than fetish porn. The photographer is Andrew Law. His work can be found on many different sites, but this one is where you can indulge in all of his work.

On the members' page there is a brief description of Andrew and of the site. In their own words, RopeRookie is described as "an exploration of the female form, caught and confined." The design suits the theme and you can search content by using the page-top menu or by selecting sets by choosing to view most recently added or by the hottest sets. There are only 61 galleries so far, but new sets are added every three to four days. Eventually, as the amount of content increases, I could see the need for additional navigation features. For example, there are some well-known fetish models here and being able to search by model name or by theme like Goth girls, would narrow down individuals' interests.

There aren't any videos here, but you do get access to a few other sites like BeautyAndBraces and EverydaySlaves and a site called MyPrivatePlanet is slated as coming soon. There are exclusive wallpapers and so far there is one bonus photo gallery from Hogtied.

While Law shoots in colour most of the time, there are a few black and white sets, too. Models are sexy Asians, tattooed and Goth chicks and as I mentioned, some babes like Toxxxy and Bianca Beauchamp are well-known fetish models. Thumbnails can be viewed in small, medium or large sizes, but the size doesn't affect the number of pictures on a page. There are roughly 70 pictures in each set. You can download an entire .zip or handpick individual photos. You can also view a slide show, but I found the 1600x1066 images to be a little too large for a hands-free experience. The resolution is great, but I did find myself wishing for smaller images to view the pictures in whole without having to scroll.

Law definitely has a creative and edgy way of shooting his models and often brings in secondary fetishes to highlight the bondage scenes. There is full nudity and babes are suspended, hog-tied, breast bound and often blindfolded. While most sets are a study of one individual damsel in distress, there are also a few lesbian sets, but no male/female couplings. Themes are varied and while ropes are the primary tool used to bind these beauties, one recent set features a model encased in a nylon body suit. In another set a model is bound in Saran Wrap.

Final Verdict

The erotic rope bondage photos on RopeRookie are creative, diverse and sexy, but you should be forewarned that the site is exceptionally softcore and there aren't any videos to enhance the experience. In fact, the site is relatively sparse in this regard. With the frequent updates it won't take long for the amount of content to double, yet the price seems a touch high for a photos-only site.
