Through the Lens of Steve Diet Goedde
No stranger to TABOO readers, master lensman Steve Diet Goedde ranks among the elite few fetish photographers whose images belong as much to the world of fine art as that of popular culture.
Steve's charming, new, fascinating DVD, featuring galleries of his wise and witty kink portraiture, interviews with the shooter and his models and behind-the-scenes footage of the creative process goes a long way toward explaining why. Divided into nine "galleries," each featuring his iconic renderings of the best-known faces and bodies in the world of fetish modeling, the core material remains mesmerizing through repeated viewings. By capturing these exotic beauties in familiar surroundings with an air of carefully calculated casualness, he brings them from the realm of frozen fantasy into the vibrant world of the contemporary bohemian demimonde.
In moods pensive, playful and candidly sexual, he makes them rea while preserving the essential mystery of their perverse sensuality.
But the most revealing and entertaining features of this omnibus anthology are the live-action sequences. The models talk about the artist, why they enjoy working with him so much and how he brings out what they like best in themselves. Goedde, with disarming candor and modesty, owns his obsessions (beginning with an early fascination for women in high heels), reveals his methods (shooting with simple gear and available light) and displays the clarity of vision that enables him to confidently capture the essence of a charged moment in as little as a single roll of film.
As hot viewing, a documentary glimpse into the esoteric world of fetish modeling and a fascinating tour of one artist's consciousness, this disk is a must-have for both the casually curious and the serious collector.
The movie features the lovely Dita von Teese, Aria Giovanni, FetishDiva Midori, Kumi, Emily Marilyn, the Porcelain Twins, Masumi Max, Persephone, Yvette, Yolanda and Molly.
