I had an oportunity to photograph the bondage life in Portugal. It's a peculiar ambience since it's a secret and intimist enviroment where people look forward to find a different kind of pleasures. They explpore their limits, fears and sometimes their self confidence as means to achieve the ultimate pleasure. With the release of the books of the 50 Shades of Grey, poeple started to talk more about this theme but few admit that they like and practice it. It's a hidden pleasure because there's still a lot of dicrimination arround it at least in Portugal.
