Igor`s Exclusive Spot: Interview


English Wife (EW) - 22 March 2004 - Interviewed by BK and Igor

Igor: The hauntingly beautiful images of English Wife have been enhancing the pages of Voyeurweb since 1999. The photographs of her alabaster skin, titian hair and voluptuous figure - superbly taken by Andrew, her husband - would make a valuable addition to the collection of any photographic art gallery or museum.

Andrew and English Wife have been generous in sharing their passion for each other with our Voyeurweb family, and also in sharing their passion for photography with other Voyeurweb contributors. Because of so many requests from other VWers, Andrew even held a few photography seminars a while back to help them upgrade their skills.

Of course it helps to have English Wife for a model ... and Andrew would be the first to agree. Here is a comment about English Wife he posted on their website:

"My wife is the quintessential woman.  She is enigmatic, mysterious, and charming.  I do not think I will ever fully know her."

English Wife is certainly all that ... and more. Here's the interview:

(1) Igor: You mention on your website that you lived on different continents with an ocean in between. How did you finally meet and get together?

Andrew: We met online about eight or nine years ago. The first time we chatted we talked for over five hours, just discussing our views on life, art, and family. I am not a believer in love at first site, or “first chat”, but I did fall in love with her then and I knew it. We actually started to “date” online. E.W. viewed them as dates and would actually dress-up to "meet" me. Our relationship continued online for about six months.

I had only one photograph of her. It was from a distance and she was sitting on a park bench. The photo was nice enough, but you could not make out many details, she was wearing a billowy dress, and I thought she looked fine… I would have stereotyped her as a school teacher from the photo. However, it didn’t matter, I loved her. I didn’t care what she looked like.

It reached a point where I knew I wanted to marry this woman. I told her so online and we both agreed we had to meet to make sure what we were feeling for each other was real.

Shortly before Thanksgiving of that year we met in Florida. She got off the plane, went through customs, and walked up to me. I did not know it was her until she just stood in front of me and said my name.

I immediately hugged her, and then froze. When I put my arms around her loose blouse and pressed against her body, my arms felt the figure underneath. I looked at her, realized she was young, slender and voluptuous. She was beautiful. What would she want with me?

She went home to England, quit her job and put her house up for sale. I went to England at Christmas to meet her family, who thought we had gone insane. She left on New Years with me to come to America. We married a year and four months later.

2) Igor: When did you become aware of Voyeurweb? Did you start contributing right away or, like many couples, browse for a time before "taking the plunge"?


English Wife: I discovered Voyeurweb totally by chance whilst doing a search for cam sites. I immediately called Andrew over to look, and we could hardly believe that such a site existed – it was simply fascinating! We did joke about submitting a few photos, but didn’t take the first tentative step for almost a year.

First, I needed some serious convincing that anyone would even want to look at nude photos of me and secondly, I wanted to weigh everything up before doing something we might later regret.

To help convince me that people would like to see our photos, Andrew shared a few nude shots of me with unsuspecting strangers on Net Meeting. A Kodak D260 digital camera Andrew had gotten for Christmas '98, combined with the positive reactions from the Net Meeting "guinea pigs," resulted in Andrew having the okay to submit a few strictly unrecognizable shots, just to see what might happen.

The painful four-week wait that followed was unbearable. I checked obsessively every day wondering if our photos had been chosen. We hadn’t paid much attention to any backlog and had no idea how long it would take for them to show up – if at all.

Finally, our first contri posted whilst I was on a trip back to the UK. During many phone calls, Andrew shared that the responses were indeed positive, and read some of them to me, whilst I squealed fits of giggles mixed with both excitement and embarrassment. What a wonderful experience!!! One I thoroughly enjoy seeing other contributors go through. It is truly amazing how something so simple can have such a big impact and be strangely addictive. Even to this day, I get terribly nervous about pressing that ‘send’ button to submit a new set of photos, and though the wait is only a few days now - it’s still a week of excitement and anticipation.

3) BK/Voyeurweb: What is it that keeps you contributing to VW? Has the experience enhanced your relationship or lives in any way?

English Wife: Apart from the strange addiction previously mentioned, hehehehe, we feel a great sense of loyalty to Igor and VW for playing a part in what has happened to us since discovering VW.

Even though Andrew had an interest in photography prior to VW, it really was not something that I would pay much attention to. Like most people, I’d just enjoy having snaps and mementoes of events, friends, family and vacations to put into photo albums.

Without any doubt, it was VW and the feedback from its visitors that gave me a reason to participate and share in Andrew’s interest. He now had a partner that was more enthusiastic about taking photos than he was!!! I did not and still don’t recognize the body in the photos, and could hardly wait to see how he would make me look next by doing something different and, in turn, finding out what people thought. We joke that VW creates nude model monsters overnight, hehehe.

Igor: Well, if I'm going to be dealing with "monsters", I'm glad they are all nude female model monsters, hehehe! But go on...

Like most other contributors we always want to improve the quality of our photos. Part of the reason for this is that we are all our own worst critics. We see all of our flaws. Another large part is the knowledge that a couple million people are going to look at and possibly pass judgment on those photos, gives you a pretty good incentive to do better.

Having a joint interest in photography has definitely enhanced our relationship; it has also caused a little controversy at times. Although we both have slightly different motives for taking photos, it is a time when we focus on doing the exact same thing. We spend quality time with each other. Andrew gets rewarded by having a camera in his hand and being able to take nude photos of me, whilst I get to play the role of his model, share a few of the results and get feedback from people who appreciate us sharing them.

.."We joke that VW creates nude model monsters overnight, hehehe!".....

4)Igor: Your pictures are exceptionally well composed, have you ever worked as a model? Andrew, did you ever work as a professional photographer before meeting English Wife?

English Wife: (laughing) ... Only in my dreams...

Andrew: No, I have never been a professional photographer. For over the past twenty years I have worked as a business/computer consultant. I have worked on everything from programming satellite communications, to expert systems, to managing multi-million dollar projects. In the last few years I have moved into selling consulting services for our firm and became the Manager of New Business Development. I was laid-off a few months ago, and I am now pursing photography as a career. So far my photographic career as just an exercise in getting thinner.

5) BK/Voyeurweb: There seems to be an artist-muse relationship here, if so, does that carry over to your sexual relations as well? If yes, how so?


Andrew: (laughing)… I am not sure exactly what you mean, and we want to keep some things private. However, I can tell you that I am definitely inspired to go bed.

6) Igor: Your modeling and Andrew's photography always look so professional  -- I don't mean that in a commercial sense, but in an artistic sense -- would you care to share any humorous "unprofessional " moments you may have had while shooting a countri for VW?


English Wife: It might be difficult to imagine that someone who will share nude photos with millions of people would avoid being seen nude in reality at all costs. The only way I can explain it is: Two dimensional images that I have full control over sharing do not feel that personal. To be nude, in the presence of someone other than my husband is more than I can cope with. I’m simply not into real time exhibitionism.

Now keep that thought process in the back of your mind and imagine this scenario: We rent a cabin that is located on 40 acres of private land high up on a ridge overlooking one of the largest natural ravines in Ohio. The driveway is steep and full of twisty turns and has a sign at the bottom clearly saying ‘Private Property’.

It's mid-afternoon and we are taking photos in a rocky outcrop alongside a portion of the driveway, when not just one, but THREE mini vans full of people with heads bobbing, fingers pointing and faces of pure astonishment appear around the corner. Not only do they see a pale-skinned nude redhead directly in front them, she’s running up the driveway in total terror, clutching her boobs with both hands in order to run, and her bottom is giggling merrily away. Not sure they quite got the scenic view they imagined.
Igor: I'm sure they weren't disappointed. They will probably talk about that "natural wonder" for their rest of their lives. In fact, I'm getting aroused just imagining that image.

(7) BK/Voyeurweb:Have you had sex with Igor, if so, how often? We ask this question of everyone due to the huge volume of e-mail each day either assuming he has had sex with every woman pictured on Voyeurweb, or asking if he has.


English Wife: Not really that often – just 7 times a day. It used to be more, but I’ve found I can get away with 7 and still have him rig the voting in our favor and take all the prize money, hehehehe!
Joking aside, my heart, body and soul belongs to my husband!

8) BK/VW: Have you ever had sex with more than one other person at the same time? Male or female or both?

English WIfe: Actually, no. I’m a traditional and rather conservative heterosexual – a loyal and rather possessive one.

9) BK/Voyeurweb: What is your favorite sex toy and why? Not counting Andrew's "Sir Lil' Andrew, Jr.", that is, hehehe!

English Wife: I’ll pass on this one, thanks – too much information!!!


(10) What is it about posing and posting nude that makes it so attractive to you?

English Wife: I don’t think this reply will be uncommon. Ask most contributors and they’ll tell you it’s the feedback. The genuine appreciation and encouraging support we receive from people for sharing our photos.

I was out of the country when our first contributions posted, and was a little disappointed that I wasn’t able to read and respond to all the comments people had left for us. (At that time there was just one Bulletin Board for all the contributions and the comments quickly scrolled off within a few days.) Upon my return home, Andrew presented me with a binder. He had painstakingly printed out each and every single comment on separate pages, along with a color copy of the photos and Igor’s comments so that I didn’t miss out on a thing.

I was so overwhelmed at some of the thoughtful messages, that I made a concerted effort to keep track of them and thank each and everyone of them personally. Spare time permitting, I still do – but for obvious reasons do not engage in continuous or flirtatious dialog. It’s quite an amazing feeling when people really do follow your progress and regularly take the time to leave you their thoughts. Even though there is large element of anonymity, there is a feeling of friendship and camaraderie. We are blessed to have people still leaving/sending us messages today who commented on our first few photo sets.

... "... my heart, body and soul belongs to my husband!" ....



(11) Igor: What do you do in your non-Voyeurweb lives? No need to be too specific, we still want to preserve your right to privacy.


Andrew: Our private lives are probably no different than many others. Family is our number one priority.

E.W. enjoys watching BBC America, eating chocolate, drinking coffee, sitting around the dining table telling funny stories, relaying her truly insane dreams from the previous night, collecting works of art, and she has a huge soft spot for animals.

English Wife: Andrew enjoys playing with his camera, reading about a million different things, getting involved in community affairs, dabbling in charitable causes, corresponding with a few close friends, and is attending free classes on video production.

(12) Igor: Does this mean we will soon see some HomeClips contris from you? (Hint-hint, nudge-nudge!)

English Wife: No promises!  *giggle*   Mind you, artsy fartsy in HC???  That’ll go down like a lead balloon for sure.

Andrew:  Maybe.  If so it will be sometime in 2004, and will be different than anything else you have seen.  Does anyone want to donate a Canon GL2 or an XL1S to the cause? Lol…  I am taking classes from a local non-profit group.  They have equipment I can use, but I don’t know if they would appreciate an English Wife video.

Igor: I know I and about two million loyal Voyeurwebbers would certainly appreciate it!! I'll see what we have back at the VW mothership in the way of movie cameras. Consider it a priority, hehehe!

13 BK/Voyeurweb: Of all of the great pictures Andrew as taken of you, do you have a favorite (or a top two or three) and why is it a favorite? Same question to you, Andrew. (On a pesonal note: I'm glad you're both answering this. It would be an impossible task for me.)

English Wife: Although I can agree that Andrew takes beautiful shots, I have a very difficult time choosing a favorite photo with me in it, simply because I am in it. For me, favorite photos have more to do with the memories and feelings evoked when the shot was taken, rather than the quality of the photo or how I look.

The first shot would have to be one of the first nude photos we ever took and is from our second contribution to VW (Cliffs). We had only been together about two years and, during a hike in a state park, I revealed that I’d always wanted to have nude photos taken amongst such beautiful rock formations.

Andrew lifted up what was then a 21-year-old Olympus OM2 loaded with regular Kodak film, proclaiming that “he would certainly do his best”. We only took about 10 shots but the courage required for me to undress and pose for those photos was tremendous. Andrew‘s reaction was not prurient, it was one of total honor and privilege. That moment was definitely a huge turning point in our relationship.

The second shot is from a series entitled ‘The Lady of The Lake.” Totally by chance we were in a canoe on a lake, amongst some beautiful rock formations, when a severe thunder storm began. The fact that it was thunder and lightening whilst pouring down with rain, meant we were probably the only two people stupid enough to be on the lake, let alone taking nude photos.

Balancing in that canoe and getting a little cold and wet was all I had to contend with. Poor Andrew was trying to keep the camera equipment and my clothes dry with an umbrella, whilst also trying to keep the canoe correctly positioned because we were constantly moving, oh, and of course, take the shots. If that’s not dedication, I’m not sure what is?
