Grab your glasses, grab a drink and a munchy. Here is the story of Fayth On Fire:

1)  Describe your very first times tied up both off camera and on camera?

The first time I was ever tied up was in 2002 by Vesta & Genesis for www.bondagedivas.com website.  Back when I had the very short blonde hair and was still actively in the Air Force too and I was asked to bring some sexy lingerie. I didn’t know what to expect, nor do I remember all the details, but I do remember having such a great time, I knew I wanted more! I found it so amazing that I could make money getting tied up without even being naked or anything being done sexual. I was intrigued by it all and I knew I had to get tied up again.

As for the first time I was tied up off camera, it took a while for that to happen but once it did, I experienced my 1^st subspace and, again, I knew I needed that again too. It was so nice to not have to cater to the camera but enjoy the bondage and blindfold and cleavegag and enjoy a nap after a spanking or 10.

I do enjoy sharing my bondage experiences with others, but I do love when I can have personal time in bondage as well. It’s a win win situation to say the least.

2)   What inspired you to become an adult industry model generally and a bondage/fetish model in particular?

What inspired me to become an adult fetish bondage industry model is pretty simple. I love being bound and experiencing others’ perspective (talent of rope) and never getting bored. I never realized there are so many different ways to be in a hogtie for example. The other inspiring motivation is that “fetish” is world wide and, with the help of the internet, I can be contacted and taught what others enjoy. My passion is to understand other cultures’ and societies’ likes and dislikes and this is a never ending lesson. I’ll never get bored with learning; this I know.

3)  What is it about your work that you think makes you so popular with your fans?

This is a tricky question, as maybe what I think is the wrong thing, but with the many years of emails and feedback and especially custom requests asking me to do similar things, apparently because I’m good at it -- my good ol’ struggling in bondage. Instead of laying there with a deer in the headlight look and not moving, I create challenges such as, can I roll over, can I get across the room, can I lift my leg without hurting another part of my body. But I also think my big mouth can handle a variety of gags and it seems a majority of the time, they can’t shut me up, as I keep gag talking and struggling the best and hardest I can. Maybe it’s my eyes. Maybe it’s my butt. Maybe I’m popular due to all of those things combined. Or maybe because I simply want to be friends and have not one bit of drama in my life or work to interrupt all the fun I know is possible in this line of work.

4)  How did you choose your modeling name?

When I realized I was going to pursue modeling and with my eclectic real first name, there was no way I could use it since my family could Google it way to easy. I was in a crossroads in my life where I had to pick a path, and the two paths I had were to go the religious route, which includes the corporate world, or I go down the path of fetish and creating art. I thought to myself, why do I have to choose one or the other? So I decided to keep a bit of faith and do what I knew I would love and enjoy. So now, I have Fayth in everything I do. As for the “On Fire” part, this was evenings of brainstorming what sounded cool with “Fayth”. I do love sitting around campfires and playing with and staring into the flames. I wouldn’t consider myself a pyromaniac but simply love staring into the abyss of the flames, knowing it will never be the same. Same for all experiences in life.

5)  What has bondage modeling taught you about yourself and other people?

I have learned so much about myself and others since joining this wonderful world of bondage modeling. Mostly great things as everyone has their particular skills and loves, and no one is the same. I also learned that communication couldn’t be more important than ever. I also learned that I can’t read anyone’s mind, so I still insist on asking what is expected of me before a shoot starts. Trust, trust trust…Oh and since 14 years ago, I learned that I like teaching and mentoring others who need some guidance without getting hurt, whether its in the business or the lifestyle. I don’t claim to know everything, nor will I ever, but I do think with my experiences, the least I can do is help others learn what they like or dislike and introduce them to other trusted friends. I love seeing the expression on their face when something is experienced for the 1^st time. Seeing someone smile and hearing them laugh is the best feedback I could ever get.

6)   Are you very selective about with whom you work?  How do you decide who to model for or with?

This is interesting because my answer is different now than it was 14, 10, 5, 2 years ago.

The evolution of my bondage career has taught me so much. At the beginning and even today, I work with new producers as I love to show them that I don’t bite and there’s no reason to be nervous, but I also enjoy teaching them certain aspects they may have not learned yet, like how to put the duct tape on their jeans before over the mouth (I don’t require that but it’s handy to know), to safety mmpphs if gagged, to giving them notice of how much longer I can stay in a position instead of “needing out now.” I get the comment, “Wow, so this is what it’s like to work with a professional model.” I’m humbled when I'm told this since honestly, it all comes so natural. I'm not trying to be someone I'm not with my head in the clouds or cocky with an attitude.

I do love working with people I’ve met years ago as well. I’m not sure if I can say I'm selective who I work with, but I will say that I only work with those that I get along with when the camera is off. This is different as because I make the majority of my money as a producer. Modeling for and with friends is important to me and so much fun as well.  

7)  You’ve done some traveling in recent years. What has been the most interesting place you’ve visited?

Yes, I have traveled a bunch in the last 7-8 years. I'm humbled to have been invited to Boundcon, Munich, Germany on several occasions, Vienna, Austria, Berlin, Germany. Being able to do a trampling session in Australia was priceless and doing bondage in Spain and creating art in Canada to working with HouseOfGord in Washington. I really can’t pinpoint which place was the most interesting because each place has been unique and wonderful. I really just feel very lucky to be able to travel and I never take for granted that life is short and I need to appreciate everything and every place at every moment. I've taken a personal holiday to New Zealand and I must say, I need to visit again. Camping on the heated ground (from the underground thermals) was something I will never forget. Climbing Mt. Kilimanjaro was also a personal highlight that I could tell so much more about. Life is too short not to travel to say the least!

8)  What is the most interesting place that you’ve done a bondage shoot?

Interesting bondage shoot location…lets see..I will try to list them in no particular order as there is no way I can pick just one place.

I was suspended by Juliet Heart to a canon in the Pacific North West, Puget Sound…publicly..even had a non-kinky guy help be the watchman. On a public footpath again in the PNW...having to keep putting clothing back on when horse riders and bike riders kept coming by. Tied to trees on an island off of KeyWest and in the Gulf of Mexico. Bound to active railroad tracks. Tied in the back of a bowling alley to the machines as people were bowling. Oh, I know I’m forgetting some, but I do think every place I’ve been bound is an interesting place!

9)  You’ve done a fair amount of outdoors bondage work.  Has shooting outdoors ever backfired on you to the point where people saw you and complained?

Outdoor shoots are my favorite for a few reasons and the chance of getting caught is part of the thrill for me. As mentioned above, this is what makes it interesting..and when the public can be present and not backfire, it’s even better.

My most unique experience of the thrill going above and beyond what I ever thought was when I was binding my dear friend Karinne to the railroad tracks in my small little town. Keep in mind, the train doesn’t even run every day but these still are working tracks. A journalist pulls up, starts taking pictures..eh..whatever..but then he comes up to us asking who we are and what we are doing. No problem.  I just didn’t know what we told him would be on the front page of the papers the next day with the headline “Dudley Do-Right Would’ve Been Proud”. So, as the media does so well, he didn’t share what we told him, but made up his own story. But the 1^st line of the article stated: “The accusations of a woman tying up another woman to the railroad tracks was true.”

This was what was called into the police by a passerby and we got to meet two very attractive men in uniform. They were very nice and I even told them I have a uniform fetish and the first thing the officer said was, “Ok..I charge $300/hr.”  So yes, the policeman were so very cool and even said next time, “Don’t tie up your girlfriend so close to the crossing and maybe put a sign on the car saying production in progress.” It’s the media that really blew it for me and got it all wrong – all for the read.

My other story doesn’t involve bondage, but balloons as my neighbors assumed it was shots fired, but that time I got to meet many more local cops but no media coverage. Just a funny memory. But I’ll spare you the details since I suppose I am to stick to the topic of bondage.

10)  Who have not yet worked with that you want to work with? 

Who have I not worked with that I want to.  Right off the top of my head, Restrained Elegance, BondageCafé, MetalBondage, and after this past weekend I have acquired two new “want to work with” and that is Insex. Yup. I had the chance to get bound my Matt Williams at Boundcon and holy moly, I want more of his rope to say the least. SeriousBondage seems like a bunch of fun too.

11)  What do you think are the best and worst aspects of being a bondage model?

Oy Vay…let’s see.

Tricky tricky…worst: the fact that because we are the “face” when it comes to the “bdsm” lifestyle but then some that model only do it for the money, not the love of being bound.

The social pressure of feeling like you have to be skinny minny, big boobed, flat stomach to be a model. I get some very strange looks when I simply say I’m a model since I don’t fit into that model “mold”. When I say I’m a fetish model to a vanilla person, the assumption that I get whipped, f*cked, and/or bloodied and such really bothers me but also gives me a chance to educate them on how this isn’t true and how there is so much more to being a bondage model than what they see on TV / movies. The social and cultural stigma of bondage and fetish really needs to be improved.

Best: the fact that if you are comfortable in your body and ok with being who knows where online, anyone can be a fetish model. The fact that if you stick with it, love it, and don’t cause drama or bring drama into your work or life for that matter, the fetish family I have is so priceless. I have made so many friends all over the world and I feel like a billionaire because of this. This is why FetishCon and Boundcon are very important to me. It’s a huge wonderful family reunion that I never want to end. You can be who you want and everyone is so accepting. Conversations are amazing and not limited when talking of bondage and kink unlike in the vanilla world, even mentioning duct tape to them doesn’t mean the same thing as it does me. They do wonder why I smirk…lol

12)  Your website www.faythonfire.com used to have a combination of still images and videos, but now it appears to be exclusively comprised of video.  What prompted you to eliminate bondage and fetish photography from the site?

My website did begin with sets of photos as updates, but as technology improved and more and more fans of my work found me, and changing hosting companies and such, I realized videos are more conducive to making money than photos. I have so many photo sets that are not available anymore, but just collecting dust on my hard drive, but since I honestly don’t know what my fans what to see, I will stick with videos that I can post at a variety of places and hope that’s what they like. The other thing is that fans order custom videos much more than custom photoshoots, in turn giving me more videos to post than photo sets.

13)   Is there a shoot you have not done yet that is on your "bucket list"?  If yes, please tell us what it is.

I think I covered this question in #10, but I would like to do more water bondage and, more specifically, with Lew Rubens. I have yet to have the privilege to combine the both with him but knowing his experience and the safety factor, this is something that has been on my personal bucket list.   

14) What are the tattoos you have?  And do they have any special significance?

Tattoos..oh tattoos…not a simple or short answer to this one. Ill start with the ones I haven’t covered up or edited.

My first tattoo was on my right shoulder blade of a small green lizard. When I was 16, me and a girlfriend got the same tattoo to signify our friendship but, of course, life changed courses and all we have left is our tattoos of the great times we had together.

As for the lizard on my left shoulder blade, I actually don’t remember when or why I got it, other than I liked lizards. Little did I know when I got these two lizard tats that I would eventually life in Florida where similar lizards are crawling everywhere. Fate maybe, or maybe not.

Now onto my tats that have been edited/covered up.

I tattooed a cartoon inchworm on my foot, as I was dating a tattoo artist and since I had the chance, I wanted to pick a spot that if I messed up, it wouldn’t be seen, so I chose the right top of my foot to give myself a tattoo. I could not believe how much it hurt, but I did it (wearing socks over it hurt like hell). Then 5ish years later, I felt stable in life, so I decided to have a friend give my inchworm a home instead of floating around my foot, so now my worm has mushrooms as a home. Between the toes, Oh my, hurt so much! But this is one of my favorite tattoos still today.

One my left arm, I had a small tribal-like design, but years later, I got it covered up with a bigger more clear colorful tattoo. I do wish colors stayed longer, I think it’s soon time to get it brightened up.

Now, onto my most recent addition. I had a flaming bold black lined whatnot on my back. Silly me told the tattoo artist to look at my website and put what he thought would represent FaythOnFire the best without something clearly fetish. Hell if I know what it was other than a flaming something. After years of being asked what it was and unable to answer them, in late 2015, I started working on covering it up with an entire back piece. It was to be finished in April but looks like I have at least one more session that it needs to be completed. I interviewed a few artists before hand, but the man I found was able to take all my ideas and incorporate them into one big piece. A tree of life, colorful flowers, water (I am a water sign) and a geisha girl. Geisha has my two lifes in one, she’s a performer and the word Geisha has my real name in it, so now at least I have a tattoo that no one should ask, what is it. This make me happy. 40+ hours of tattooing, I better be.

15)  What is the kinkiest thing you've ever done off-camera?

The kinkiest thing I’ve done off camera, hmm..the first memory from many years ago was when I was attending a kinky camping festival in Wisconsin and had to pee very very bad and I knew I couldn’t make it to the bathroom and the friend I was with also was in the same pickle. The guy we were hanging out with laid down on a picnic table and said, pee on me, and so she and I quickly stood above him and peed all over him. We just had to pee so badly, it didn’t matter other than we needed relief. When we looked down, he was so happy and in a moment of bliss. No, I don’t do P videos or sessions but this was very kinky for me but so natural too. I will never forget it.

We all have different definitions of kinky, so maybe being suspended in the middle of the woods and having inchworms put on me was kinky and fun, or experimenting with my first needle play on my upper breast, realizing quickly that receiving needle play wasn’t my thing, to using a hitachi this past weekend in a bar with 42 people around knowing only one other person knew I had an orgasm. I could go on and on with kinky and great things I've done off camera.

16)  How has the industry changed since you began your career as a bondage model?

I think the industry has changed drastically since 14+ years ago. From primarily photos being the main thing to now videos, to many girls getting more and more plastic surgery to feel more confident to perform for others on camera. To what I call the “evolution of a fetish model” I have watched it time and time again. They start out with glamour then wrestling, then bondage, to hardcore bondage, then bam, porn..then they no longer do bondage since it doesn’t pay nearly as well as porn does. Then they go away and are never heard from again. The core “family” if you will that has been around since I started is getting smaller and smaller for different reasons, but it’s so good to have lifelong friends still in it with me. I can’t tell them enough how much I appreciate them.

17)  When you're not working or traveling, what do you do for relaxation? 

I don’t relax. Sitting still drives me nuts as I don’t watch TV nor is it easy for me to even sit down to watch a movie. This is a big reason why I love bondage. It’s forced relaxation but even then, as you may know, even then I don’t stay still very well 

But I do like this question as I think no other model does what I do for fun. I am a Civil War Re-enactor. No, I don’t dress up as a fancy big skirted petticoat lady either, but instead I wear wool pants, carry my 1853 Enfield and I march with the boys to battle during the winter season. I bite off the tube with black powder in it, load my gun and get chills every time we get the company to all fire at once. Faking death on the ground with canons firing, making the earth shake beneath me and horses running by is so flippin thrilling. My other family is my reenacting family. It’s a very expensive hobby, but it’s such a great time no matter how cold it gets at night. There's nothing like sleeping on the ground under an A-frame tent and waking up at 0700 to Reveille (reminds me of my four years in the Air Force, I suppose).

When I’m not forced to dress in Civil War attire, I love camping modernly in proper tents and enjoying the outdoors. I will do anything to set up at least one of my seven hammocks somehow, somewhere. I have a hammock fetish I think 

I am a mother to a 13 year old son and he is my life, my sole, my heart. Can’t put it more bluntly than that! My cat and dog are what make me smile too! My kid, my dog, my cat all can make me laugh even when I’m not in the greatest of moods. I love that.

Recently life handed me a bit of a challenge as my mom is battling cancer. I'm lucky enough to live 20 minutes from her, so I have been doing everything in my power to help her all I can through her Chemo and fighting to win this battle. I never wanted to learn so much about cancer but well, it is what it is and I'm grateful I'm here to help her all I can. I never thought in my life I would have to shave her head, but luckily instead of us both crying during it, we were laughing and having fun. 

Other than those precious things, me and my partner require socialization so we frequently ride our motorcycles and visit the local pubs where we enjoy the family of fellow bikers and friends and even sing karaoke. My favorite song to sing is “Turn the Page” by Bob Segar.

18)   What else do you want your fans to know about you and your work?

hmmm…

I don’t have time for drama or negativity! Life is so damn short and there is so much out there to do and experience and share and learn. I will never be done learning and I have a passion for teaching. I love answering questions and getting feedback on anything I film or post.

I have a fun youtube channel at: www.youtube.com/user/FaythOnFi…
