♦ I love my camera (even though it EATS batteries) and I really want to get properly good at photography, so I’ve been doing artsy shots of sex toys for my reviews for a little while now. I love thinking up a scene that will complement the toy and I love getting a good shot. Sex toys are, in the main, sexy in and of themselves, I think. Not all of them, certainly, but some are practically works of art and some inspire lust in me by sight alone.
I love to see good photography of toys because I just don’t think there’s enough of it, so I’m thrilled to see Nymphomaniac Ness come up with a weekly meme that focuses on artsy shots of sex toys. Great idea and you couldn’t wish for a better reviewer to lead the charge!
Without further ado, here’s my very first entry to the very first Toy With Me Tuesday…
Until recently when my Lovehoney Satin Drawstring Toy Bags arrived, I had taken to storing many of my dildos up on the top shelf of my bookshelf after cleaning. Many of them stand up nicely on their own and why muck about rummaging in a drawer when I can just grab them when I want them? So here’s the Tantus Echo, Throb, Niagara O2, Acute and Adam O2.
Sure, this isn’t my best sex toy photo in technical or imaginative terms, but it’s recent and you haven’t seen it before and I think it might make you grin. Good old Tantus toys in front of good old Terry Pratchett, both fantastic craftspeople in their differing arenas. Discworld and dildos, what more could a gal want? ♦
Brilliant!
Thanks!
Wouldn’t it be awesome if dust didn’t exist? And we could store all our toys like this? It would be such a nice display…
Definitely. Luckily the top of the bookcase protects them more than you’d imagine, but I still don’t think I could store them like this for all that long. And certainly not without a wipe off before use!
Luckily, the Lovehoney bags are really awesome and even fit my Max, so that’s what I’m doing with them now. :)
Love love love this. Our flat is filled with books… and of course sex toys. Two of our favorite things combined makes for a great picture!
I’m moving house soon and have just realised the sheer *amount* of books I own. Too many. And also not enough. :)
It’s probably going to be the same when I pack my toys!
Thanks for the comment :)
That’s a great photo!
I’ve been guilty of leaving toys on the shelves above my bed, too. Makes it much easier for me to grab them which means I’m more likely to use them with my OH :-)
Thanks! They look so nice on display and it’s so handy. And making them used more often can only be a good thing!
Awesome photo, it makes me want to do 2 of my favorite things ;)
Thanks! And me too!
SOmeone needs to make silicone Discworld dildos! Terry would so approve!
Definitely, that’d be so awesome! I can just imagine the possibilities! :)
You totally could have made a dildo discworld with a book on top of the dildos!! (I can’t, don’t have enough to make the ‘pillars’ ;)
Still a fun picture!

Oh, man, I could have! Ha! :D x
