My name is Christine Kessler. I spend my work hours photographing fashion, erotica, and fetish. All of that work is done digitally, and, though I love it, my first love was always film. I've found so many inspirational photographs on Flickr and DA and elsewhere online, that I wanted a way to share them with others. That's why we're here. If you'd like to learn more about me, click the links at the bottom of the page.

Tool - Superheads White Slim Angel

I am currently loving this camera. A lot. Besides, it’s so tiny and light, it’s the perfect companion day-to-day.

Tool - Leica 3, circa 1932
This camera belonged to my father. He somehow taught me to use a rangefinder and then let me take it on a fourth grade field trip to Sacramento. Wonder where those photos are now?
