Your Humble Narrator has been trying to land this interview since the day he set his eyes on this angelic creature.  Finally the gods took pity on Your Humble  Narrator and with the help of the Great Dallas Amelia was kind enough to do this interview.  And as I jumped for joy when she agreed I found not only a lovely woman who’s bottom is the best argument for a supreme being (nothing that perfect could be left to random selection) but a intelligent talented individual who is  kind to friends and fans alike.  Dear Readers I am honored to present to you the delightful Amelia Jane Rutherford

Hi Amelia,  First of all I wanted to tell you how thrilled I am that you agreed to this interview.  I cannot tell you how long I have been dying to interview you.  So  Thank you. Now  your first spanking was from Dallas (boy are you doing it backwards!)  can you tell me a little bit how you got into the business?  Had you ever been spanked before your shoot with Dallas

Well, thanks for interviewing me, it’s very nice of you.  My first spanking shoot wasn’t actually with Dallas – he was the first person who contacted me about spanking work, and he very kindly (and cleverly) gave me a free pass to his site.  I was instantly hooked because I’d been fantasizing about things like that for years but I’d had no idea there were websites like his!  So I decided I’d definitely like to be a spanking model.  But going to the USA to try it out would have seemed a bit risky – I had no idea if I’d actually enjoy it in real life, or whether it was just something that should stay a fantasy.  So I did some research and found some other spanking sites.  I wrote to a number.  The first one wrote back that I’d be too tall to be a bottom, so I’d have to be a dom for them instead.   I already knew I definitely wasn’t a switch, so eventually I decided to go and work with Girls’ Boarding School because they paid by the scene, so if I could only get through one spanking I wouldn’t feel as though I was letting anyone down too much.  It turned out to be a fantastic experience – I was very shocked by how much it hurt, and I remember them telling me I needed to tone down my reactions or no one would believe them!  I managed to get through all 8 scenes, including my first caning, which was extraordinary!  I felt so high by the end of it, and I remember I couldn’t sleep that night because I was so excited that I’d managed to do it.  The next day, my whole bottom had turned black, and I was a bit scared it’d never recover…  Anyway, once I HAD recovered, I knew I wanted to do more, so I started contacting other producers.

Now in our Pre-Interview you mentioned a rather unlikely transformation  from  radical feminist and anti pornography crusader to one of the most sought after spanking and bondage models.  Could you tell us about this transformation?

Ohh, Lordy.  This does make me embarrassed!  I’d known for ages that the idea of being a victim was somehow very appealing to me, and as I got older, I started to feel really guilty about it.  So I tried to repress all my feelings by joining the Campaign Against Pornography in the UK and getting all angry about the degradation of women in porn.  At the time, I’d never seen any porn as it happens….  I never actually did any campaigning, I just spent a lot of time reading their literature, which described in fairly graphic detail the various ‘degrading’ treatment of women in porn.  I’m afraid it had quite the opposite of the intended effect on me, but I kept trying to be a sort of puritan feminist.  I’m really glad I’ve managed to get through that, I’m much, much happier now.

You said you’re a fan of Horror movies,  (so am I).  Tell us about your favorite. 

I just love being scared.  I suppose it’s the same instinct that makes me enjoy bdsm generally – I like the feeling of not really being in control.  I wouldn’t want you to go away with the idea that I cope well with horror movies – when I lived by myself I didn’t dare watch them at all, and I still have to check under the bed before falling asleep if I’ve been watching anything scary.  I think my favorite Horror movie at the moment is 28 Days Later.  I think I like it so much because it gave me the feeling of a whole world which had become dangerous.  I’m also unreasonably scared by The Sixth Sense.  I still can’t watch it unless someone’s with me…

You mentioned about your relationship with the owner of Restrained Elegance and you indeed seem like a female in love.  Can you tell us about how you met while the rest of us revel in how damn lucky he is.

I’ll try not to go on and on about this – reading about how in love people are is probably always a bit sickening.  I started doing bondage modeling well before I took the plunge and started seeking out spanking work.  I was told about a nice photographer who ran a site called Restrained Elegance, so I had a look at it and thought it looked very sexy.  I’d never had the chance to be tied up at that point, but I’d been looking for an opportunity to do it.  So I contacted Hywel by email  and asked him if he’d be interested.  He said no!  I didn’t have the look he normally went for (I’m way taller than most glamour models, and I didn’t really have any suitable  pictures to show him).  This made me feel very sad, because I was only just starting out. So I offered to reduce my rate by 50% so I could show him that I’d be a good choice. He took me up on the offer, and I worked extra hard to prove that I was worth shooting with.  And he liked me enough to re-book me so we ended up working together a lot and becoming friends.  I always looked forward to shoots because I felt safe having a go at quite extreme fantasies with him, and gradually our shoots became much more like play-sessions than shoots really.  So it seemed like a good idea to be together!  We’ve been living together for a bit over a year now, and I’m really happy.  I grew up believing that there weren’t any other people who shared my fetish, and I’ve been lucky enough to find someone who I don’t have to keep any secrets about my fantasies from.  And we get to produce work together that hopefully sometimes inspires other people to feel comfortable about liking bondage and SM.

Does he spank you?

Of course he does!  He’s actually been in a few spanking videos with me too, but he spanks me almost every day at home.  I’m not very well-behaved   He’s just discovered that my hairbrush is very painful.

Ok back to spanking.  As I said I admit I am a huge fan, and have seen quite a number of your videos.  There have been more times than I can count that you look like you’re about to lose it.  Are the spankings you receive as painful as they appear on film?

Thank you for watching my videos, that always makes me very happy.  I find it very interesting that I really don’t seem to be developing any tolerance for spanking at all.  Some other models seem to be able to take a lot more punishment than me without reacting so much.  This makes me feel a bit pathetic, but I can honestly tell you that the spankings are DEFINITELY as painful as they appear on film!  That’s why I cry so often – at almost every shoot I think ‘SURELY it doesn’t normally hurt this much!’ and I always think I’ve stopped enjoying CP.  And then afterwards I realize that I want it to happen all over again.  I don’t think I’m really a classic masochist, I don’t get pleasure from pain while it’s happening most of the time – my pleasure really comes from the anticipation and from thinking about it afterwards.  But if I can get into the right headspace then nothing seems to hurt at all.  That doesn’t happen all that often though!

Now I heard though the grapevine that when Northern Spanking got in trouble early last year  you volunteered to do a spanking scene or two for free to help get them on their feet.  I really respect you for that.  So tell us what motivated you for such a unselfish act and what is it like on the set of Lucy and Paul.

Lordy, thank you!  Paul and Lucy are very much loved in the UK spanking scene, and the fact that so many people wanted to help out is proof of that.  They’re absolutely lovely people and didn’t deserve to run into trouble of any kind.  They’re always the producers I’d suggest that anyone new to the industry should work with first because they’re so protective of their models and they try to match storylines with the model’s capabilities and ideas.  So they’re some of my favorite people to work with, and some of the films I’m most proud of have been done with them.  Being on set with Lucy and Paul is actually just like a party really – I never really notice that I’ve been working until afterwards when I realize my bottom is very, very bruised   My favorite thing (apart from the fact that they have excellent, excellent Tops) is that they put the models in beautiful clothes.  I particularly love their school uniforms… And they always give you lots of cake, which I think is extremely important.

You mentioned that you mark fairly easily,  yet might I be so forward to say that your bottom is perhaps one of the most beautiful I have seen.  Can you give my readers that might be budding spanking models how you keep it in such wonderful shape.

Good heavens, thank you very much!  My bottom sticks out rather a lot, I’ve always thought.  I think that might be because of all the ballet and gymnastics I did when I was younger, because I certainly don’t do much exercise right now – I’m too busy at work to do more than the odd dance class.  Ooh, I do climb mountains (only easy ones) with Hywel – I want to make a movie about it actually; ‘Amelia Jane Goes Hiking’.  Mmmmm.  I also made up a special bottom exercise that I do if I’m alone in a hotel room with nothing better to do (this happens a lot).  I’ll post pictures of it on my blog when I’ve got time, so that people will be able to learn. I believe it will make my bottom smaller, but so far, to be honest, I haven’t noticed much difference….

Back to the obligatory questions   What was the hardest spanking you have ever gotten?

Dallas!  Probably everyone says that, don’t they?  I only work with him once a year, and I always forget how painful it is.  But it’s definitely the hardest.  Ouch!  I don’t think anyone else leaves actual bruises just from handspanking!  Last time I worked with him, a layer of my skin peeled off afterwards.  I was a bit scared!

When your shooting,  Is there anything you do to prepare yourself before a scene?

I think having a theatre background has maybe influenced me – I like to spend a bit of time thinking about what sort of person I am, how I’ll respond to being spanked, and what sort of things I’m likely to say. Nothing in spanking movies is normally scripted, and we tend not to cut very often, so I try to get it right first time.  It’s easier if I’ve been working on the story myself, but I don’t always direct my own work of course, so often I only have a couple of minutes to think about it.  I’m trying to avoid always saying the same things ‘oh, what are you DOING?’; ‘that HURTS!’ etc.  And it’s tricky to avoid the clichés.

Is there any one movie or scene you are particularly proud of,  can you tell me about it?

I suppose the scenes I’m most proud of fall into two rather opposite categories; scenes where I think I’ve been very brave, and scenes in which I’ve totally gone to pieces and cried a lot.  I like drama, you see   Quite often I get a bit annoyed with myself if I don’t get enough into the scene to cry – but there’s a particular scene that I shot for Northern Spanking which isn’t out yet – and I’m very, very proud of it.  We were trying to do a genuine-feeling domestic discipline scene, and I hope it’ll be beautiful, because it felt great to shoot.  Now I’m thinking about it, I can’t actually think of a scene I’ve shot on video where I’ve been particularly brave.  Urgh, I’ll have to keep trying.  I’m always proud of surviving Dallas’ shoots though – the flight home feels like a kind of triumph!

Can you tell us the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you on the set?

I get very, very embarrassed if I start laughing and can’t stop. It’s awfully unprofessional, and wastes everyone’s time.  And when I was a ‘normal’ actress I think I had a good reputation for not ‘corpsing’ as it’s called in the business.  Alas, working for Northern Spanking particularly has changed all that – when we made ‘Strictly Come Spanking’ I lost all control.  And I’m still embarrassed about watching the out-takes…

What is your favorite implement and why?

This seems to change daily – but I do like heavy leather straps.  I think the reason is because they look fairly scary, and definitely hurt a lot, but they don’t deliver the nasty stinging feeling that lots of things do.  I like heavy, thuddy kind of implements best.  Oh, I like the birch too, I haven’t got much experience of it really, but I like the way it disintegrates as it’s used – that feels kind of melodramatic, so it suits me.

What is your least favorite implement and why?

Heavens, it’s got to be wooden paddles, really.  I hate the way they’re so big that they land on your whole bottom each time, so after the second stroke the pain just seems to become unbearable.  That said, I kind of like the noise they make, so I’d be disappointed if no one ever used one on me again…

What is your favorite spanking position and least if you have one?

Mmmm, this might be a bit tricky to describe – but I like positions that make me feel that I don’t have any option to move.  Being tied down is definitely great for me, but kneeling on a chair with hands on the floor is also one of my favorites, because you’d land on your head if you tried to reach back – so it’s good for making me stay in position.  I also like being bent over things, probably for the same reason.  But I’m AWFUL at holding free-standing positions, like touching-toes.  And I don’t seem to be able to improve.  I don’t really like standing positions either, because I’m so tall.  I want to feel small!

Do you watch any other spanking models?  Do you admire one in particular?

I wish I had more time to watch spanking movies – I used to watch loads when I started but I don’t get much time off any more.  I was always a fan of Niki Flynn, and Amy Hunter is just a joy to watch – she’s a fabulous actress, and I think she’s beautiful.  I like Pandora very much too.  Now I feel rude for not mentioning other people – there are loads of spanking models I’m very impressed with.  And I’m a fan of anyone who has higher tolerance than me – I just love spanking models generally, really!

Other than your true love,  If you were stuck on a desert island with one person to dish out punishments on your wonderful bottom who would it be.

I think Hywel would be more than sufficient, frankly!  But anyone very highly trained and military would be nice too.  Or Hywel, pretending to be highly-trained and military….. Or Professor Snape.

Do you prefer M/F or F/F spankings and why?

Hmm, I definitely prefer M/f spanking – I find it a bit difficult to cope with being topped by women – probably because I’m straight, so all my fantasies have always revolved around men.  Even though I’ve worked with some fabulous female tops, and I’m always happy to shoot with women , I probably wouldn’t look for an opportunity to do F/f spanking in real life.

I do have some female readers,  Can you give any advice to any women thinking about getting into the industry?

It’s been such a great way of exploring my kink that I’d certainly recommend it. Obviously you need to be sure you’ll be ok with potentially getting recognized in the future when you’re doing other things but I’ve never regretted it for a moment, and am immensely grateful for the network of friends I’ve got as a result.  I’d say the best way to get involved is to have a detailed look at the websites of the production companies you’re interested in working for.  Look for sites that have lots of pictures of things you’d like to try, and not too many pictures that freak you out (I always avoid anyone who seems to shoot lots of genital close-ups, for example).  And look out for sites that talk respectfully about their models.  I normally steer clear of any websites that describe their spankees in ways that I find insulting because the chances are that if they’re using that language on their site, they’ll speak to you like that in the videos.  I always ask to see examples of the work before I commit to a shoot, and of course, it’s very important to check references with other models who’ve worked with that company.  And I think it’s probably really important not to go into this industry if you’re primarily looking for money.  It’s a very painful way of earning an income unless you really love it!

Most people in the business say that their interest in spanking started at a very early age. Is this true for you as well?

Oooh yes….. obviously I didn’t have any idea that it’d turn into a sexual thing later in my life, but I was always fascinated by anyone being punished.  And I was very, very disappointed if I thought someone was going to get punished in a story or film, and then they were forgiven instead.  It ruined everything for me!  I was never spanked at home or at school, and I’m very glad, because I think I’d have found it immensely confusing.  I’m glad I got the chance to discover it for the first time as a consenting adult.

Is there anything you would like say to your fans out there.

I’m very happy to have you!  Thank you very much for watching my work, I never expected anyone to pay any attention to me, I just wanted to get spanked – and being a spanking model seemed like a logical way to make that happen.  So I’m delighted that anyone enjoys my work.  Thank you!

Dear Reader, not that interviewing her changed my opinion but I have to honestly say that this girl is indeed a rare find.  Incredibly beautiful, smart, talented and enjoys a good hard spanking to top it off.  We are fortunate Dear Reader that we live in a time where we can indeed enjoy such incredible creature such as Amelia. You can find her,  well on almost any spanking site worth their salt.  Though the pictures that I included come from Dallas Spanks Hard, Firm Hand Spanking, Northern Spanking, Bars and Stripes and of course Amelia’s very very lucky boyfriend’s site Restrained Elegance.  You can also find her on her very own blog, ameliajanerutherford.com
