Vintage

I have a thing for vintage photographs. I am not sure when it started; perhaps when I found the stash of family photos dating back to 1910, or maybe when I first saw the sepia images of vintage erotica, which are an incredibly beautiful glimpse into the history of sexuality and photography.
Or perhaps it started when I first saw this image of myself taken by Exposing40, and fell in love with looking this way myself. It is still my absolute favourite image (and probably deserves it’s own place on the blog) and I intend to get it printed one day.
The vintage prompt for Sinful Sunday then was something I absolutely couldn’t pass up. I have taken a few shots in this style before, (here, here, and here), but wanted something inspired by the vintage erotica genre. I looked at a range of photographs online and attempted a few recreations, but this is the one that stood out to me. Many of the photos I saw used chairs as props, and I love the combination of the lingerie and the sepia colour.

Beautiful picture of your beautiful body it could be a victorian lady in erotica
Thank you! I’d be thrilled if I were!
that’s a lovely sepia-toned photo of you..
your selection of erotic photos from past eras all show that women together have a certain ‘affection’ for each other that rises above simply sex.. oh I’m sure there’s plenty of guys that feel a tenderness as well but my experience has been that MM sex is more about the ‘sexual’ first and foremost..
thanks for sharing..

Thanks Allen. The link to the selection of erotica is a page by whores of yore. There is also plenty of MM erotica out there that is just as nuanced.
This is brilliant! It looks like an old risque postcard.
I love this. And I love those sepia erotic shots* from 100 years ago. It makes me wonder about their lives, secrets and ways of getting by at a time when doing thar was so transgressive and could totally destroy your life. High stakes for a piece of joy to pass down the generations.
*Edited spelling
Shots not shirts. Though their shirts are nice too…
grin! indeed!
Thank you. I love thinking about their lives too – though the victorians were actually obsessed with sex (have a read of the link I put in the post!) the photos are endlessly fascinating to me.
That is exactly what I was going for!
Echoing the others: love this shot! I think you epitomize the vintage erotica look in this. Also: I adore the Whores of Yore Twitter account!
Thank you so much! And yes isn’t it fantastic!
This just screams vintage erotica, it looks s incredible.
Thank you!
This is stunning as is the picture in the woods that EX40 took. I hope to maybe take you to the woods one day too!

Wouldn’t that be fun!
OMG … I do love sepia tones anyway, but this photo just surpasses any I’ve looked at it for ages and ages.
I LOVE this … gorgeous, sexy and sensual.

Thank you so much! I am so glad it ticks your boxes.
I love these kinds of images and something I need to recreate in the future both with myself and anyone else I can persuade in front of the camera
Thank you lovely. I think you’d do a great job of recreating it.
