Captured! By Rope and Camera:

Class Description: 

During this class, we take a peek behind the camera to hear Larry's ideas and opinions about photography, modeling and picture aesthetics, while thinking about rope. The class will be interesting to photographers, models, tops and bottoms, and most particularly voyeurs and people who like to look. It might be helpful for people who just want to document their rope work, even if it’s just on a phone’s camera.

During the after party, Larry will have a photo booth open. This experience is included in the cost of your party ticket, though Larry will also be accepting tips! 

Pre-requisites and Supplies Needed:

• No experience in photography is necessary, as we will not be emphasizing  the technical side of pictures as much as the experiential and interpersonal angles.
• No equipment is needed for this class
• Creature comforts (note taking supplies, blanket/yoga mat, favorite snacks/drinks, etc)

About the Presenter:

Larry has been taking photos since 2005. Most of his work has been glamor and beauty photography. In the last few years, he has migrated to kink and more erotic photos. You can frequently find him at local sloshes and Beyond the Shade events. When asked about his professional expertise on photography, Larry said, "I’m not sure about my qualifications, except to say that I’ve been doing this for quite a while and have developed more than a few opinions on the subject. So, even if you don’t agree, or even if I am way off base, there’s a lot to think about as you look and take pictures."

Play Party

Any play (within LNK venue guidelines) is welcome at this party! Party rules can be reviewed at louisvillenk.com/rules. At this party, the venue will be set up with rope in mind. Extra floor play space and hardpoints will be set up, though the usual furniture (crosses, benches, etc) will be available too. Have a question at the party or need some help making the space work for your scene? Talk to an event team member, identifiable by their bright yellow lanyards and safety shears! 

Our venue offers:

• play furniture (A frame style rigs, athletic mats, spanking benches, St. Andrews style crosses, etc)
• luggage racks to store personal items and equipment
• social area
• snack bar and Keurig machine (food and beverage can also be brought in)
• after-care/quiet area
• outdoor smoking area
• single occupancy bathroom
• Free and ample paved parking within a couple minutes walk of the space. Handicapped parking is available directly beside the space. Please check the parking map in the ticket confirmation for detailed parking instructions!

Is this your first time? Don't worry, we'll be gentle! An event team member will give you a welcome orientation tour to show you with the space layout and highlight some of the most important rules and etiquette!

Event Rules and Expectations:

• LNK Rules & Ban Lists: All LNK rules, ban lists, and expectations apply to our events in addition to any that we set. Please be sure to review these rules linked in the ticket confirmation. 
  
• Consent: Be sure to negotiate BEFORE touching someone and/or someone's belongings AND before having a rope experience with someone, even at classes. If you're not sure how to navigate consent and negotiations, please ask SnappedGinger or event staff (identifiable by the yellow lanyards).
• RACK Space: Interact at your own risk. If you have questions or concerns at the event, please talk to SnappedGinger or event staff.
• Photos: Photos are allowed as long as EVERYONE in the photo consents to being in the photo. This includes people in the background! Blurring them out later is NOT a solution. The photo should not be taken if any part of anyone's body appears in the frame without their consent.
• Consequences: Violating these rules may result in a time-out or permanent ban.
