Editorial Reviews

Review
Goedde's photos are inviting and enticing. . . . A work of unquestionable talent and beauty, it's a coffeetable book with excellent photo reproduction and the best quality printing money can buy. -- Screw, 12/21/98

The stories told in The Beauty of Fetish are subtle. Steve Goedde's images portray moments that resonate with a deep and familiar eroticism. . . . The photographs are very personal to Steve, and honest. -- Taboo, 2/99

[Goedde] means to get at the surface allure of fetish wear. That he also captures the personas of those who wear it adds to the genuine erotic charm of his work. -- New York Newsday, 12/6/98

5.0 out of 5 stars steve diet goedde- the beauty of fetish, August 9, 2001

By	Rissa Law (North Hollywood, CA) - See all my reviews

the beauty of fetish is a colorful fixation on the female form. each picture captures a private moment of sexual individuality, the charms of 6 inch heels, the caress of warm latex, the cinch of a corset. you will not find grim bondage shots, or overly propped scenes. this is an artistic view upon heavenly creatures, forever captured for erotic history. if you like erotica, punk rock, and gorgeous girls, this book is for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Collection, November 16, 1999

By A Customer

An Incredible collection of luscious photographs, celebrating the female form in latex, rubber, heels, fishnet and more. Every page begs to be fantasized about. This is a coffee table book on fetish you could let your relatives see, it is so beautiful and tasteful, and yet excitement drips from every image. With thoughtful text by Fetish Diva Midori (who is also one of the models).

5.0 out of 5 stars More than fetish, December 5, 2001

By	Brenna (Phoenix, AZ United States) - See all my reviews

Goedde does not attemt to be a "fetish photographer." He is simply a good photographer who occationally shoots photos that can be considered "fetish." These pictures are full of atmosphere and life, and will draw you in if you let them. Do not be fooled by the title, but be pleasantly surprised by the beauty within.
