Rope Lover is just one of the many pseudonyms of internationally renowned fetish and bondage model and rope bondage expert Bridgett Harrington and RopeLover.com is her official website. There an extensive amount of biographical material available on the free side of the site, so if you like to know the story behind the model so to speak, you might want to investigate the "Who Is Rope Lover?" and Bio/FAQ sections. It's actually a rather good read as Rope Lover is a relatively skilled writer and has led a pretty interesting life. Anyhow, Bridgett's site contains a very large archive of high quality pics featuring a wide variety of fetishes and kink.
The Rope Lover members area setup is fairly simple. There's a welcome message on the righthand side of the main page and graphical links to the site's content on the left (there's also a textual menu across the top of the page for convenience). There's also a handy search engine feature available near the bottom of the page that allows you to scour the site based on categories, model, photographer, and a wide array of pre-selected keywords.
The photo galleries here are divided into several categories: "Rope Lover Restrained" (pics of Bridgett tied up), "Bound Beauties" (pics of other men and women Bridgett has bound), "Costumes Creativity and Clowns" (lots of kinky dress-up sets), "Kinky Cohorts" (shots of Bridgett's real-life friends and lovers), "Fetish, Form and Fashion", and Wicked Webcam (caps from Rope Lover's webcam shows). For the most part, the photos are clear and well shot but a bit on the small side at around 500 x 700. I noticed some lighting issues in some of the series as I browsed through the archive and some grainy pics here and there, but overall things look pretty good...just like to see the size bumped up a bit. The pictures have various feels to them depending on the set. Some of the shoots look like straight-ahead amateur photography while others have a more artistic vibe (black and white, interesting lighting and color, etc.), and still others have a professional feel to them.
The subject matter of the pics, as you've probably guessed by now, is overflowing with bondage and all sorts of other kinds of kinkiness as well. All you have to do is check out the text on the free side of the site to get an idea of the kind of stuff Bridgett is into. As she says: "My passions include fisting, fucking, furs, high heels, anal play, animal roles, erotic hypnosis, caning, bastinado, blood, antique underwear, sweaters, shaving, hosiery, guns, outdoor sex, and... did we mention bondage? I am a switch (a person who likes to tie and be tied) as well as being a self-bondage fan. The focus of this site is bondage... but you'll see a splash of my other fetishes and passions as well." I had to look up bastinado (turns it out it means being beaten with a stick) but other than that, you pretty much get the picture. If you're a fan of elaborate rope bondage, S&M, and a wide variety of unique and inventive kink, you'll definitely dig the members area here.
Other than the pics, there's not really a whole lot else here. Bridgett mentioned that her site has a small amount of video content, but to be honest, I never ran across any while surfing through the site. Maybe they're buried somewhere in there and I missed them. She also has a webcam link but other than 13 vidcap galleries, there's not much to that section either. Reading the free side of the site, it appears Bridgett used to do webcam shows but is currently waiting until there's more interest in the performances before resuming them.

If you're a bondage fetishist, you may already be familiar with Bridgett Harrington's work. If you're not, and bondage and kink is your thing, you'll most definitely want to check out RopeLover.com and spend some time inside the Rope Lover members area. I'd like to see the pic size bumped up a bit and some more videos added, but other that, Bridgett's got a nice large archive of quality fetish material for your viewing pleasure.
