Bushveld Skinny Dipping

On a trip to the South African West Coast we made sure to find ourselves a deserted stretch of beach where James could take some sexy photos of Tamsin. We also packed a picnic, knowing that it was likely that one thing would lead to another. Of course, it did. The result was yummy, messy, sandy, windy, and so much fun!

Our 20th wedding Anniversary trip was the first time we ever turned on a camera to film ourselves making love. We'd just recently had some major breakthroughs in our erotic journeying together, and the combination of newfound sexual freedom and energy, some time away from our kids, and an exquisite private valley in the Naukluft Mountains in Namibia meant we were eager to try new things. Filming ourselves making love was one of those things - and we loved it. Now whenever we go away together (which has since become a big priority for us) the cameras are the first things on the packing list.

A crisp morning on a farm in the Cederberg mountains in South Africa in 2017. We creep out early and find ourselves a peaceful spot on the river where we can spend a few hours doing what we like most. This is a compilation of snippets of video from that morning: Tamsin takes a naked stroll down the river; we attempt to take naked selfies using the self-timer on our old DSLR and James helps himself to an early "breakfast" (wink wink). Afterwards, back at the cottage, James enjoys watching and photographing Tamsin doing yoga in her favourite outfit (bare skin, naturally)rn

A trip away to the Lowveld, a perfect morning filled with light and birdsong and a gentle breeze, a gorgeous white bed open onto the African bush right outside the door...These were the conditions that led to a session of slow, sensual, decadent lovemaking right before breakfast. Is there any better start to a birthday? (Happy Birthday, Tamsin!)

We filmed this video on one our our Outdoor Adventures - on the same trip where we heard about MLNP for the first time. This was one of those occasions where A LOT went wrong - the most significant of which was an over-zealous property caretaker who obviously felt our request for absolute privacy didn't preclude him coming by to helpfully clean out the fire pit for us - while we were right in the middle of things. The results were hilarious, and watching this footage again made us both convulse with laughter at the memory of it all. It's good reminder that sex where nothing goes to plan can be a lot of fun, too!

Another one from our archives. We've been having so much fun going back through old hard drives looking for material we can share on MLNP. This video comes from a trip down to the West Coast of South Africa at the end of 2017. We rented a little "surf shack" out there with an amazing outdoor bathroom. Naturally we HAD to try out the shower, which was set against the little cliff face behind the hut. We had somehow managed to leave James's shower bench at home, but made a plan using a rickety stool we found in the garden. This led to some precarious moments, which, in combination with our constant battle with the unpredictable water temperature, and some glorious body scrub from Tamsin's dear Aunty Hazel, made for quite an adventurous shower! Lots of fun and laughter, and some really yummy play.

This is another video from our 2017 trip to the West Coast of South Africa. As soon as James saw the patio of the little surf shack we had rented, he had video ideas. The picnic table on the patio was perfect for the picnic he had in mind. And so this video was born - a realization of a James fantasy. Alfresco dining with a difference!

We were all packed up and it was time to leave our delightful little love nest in the Lowveld after a lovely birthday weekend, but I (Tamsin) wasn't quite ready to go. After so much deliciousness with James I was feeling greedy and wanting even more before we drove away. So we got undressed, unpacked the camera and sneaked back into the bedroom one last time. James was very obliging - even though I made him do most of the work. I love this video - it has moments that make me laugh out loud - but I'll admit I was reluctant to post it, because my bloated, pre-menstrual belly is so obvious and sends me into all sorts of shame spirals when I see it in these frames. James, however, reminds me that one of the reasons we love MLNP so much is that it's all about the fact that real people people with all kinds of bodies, at all stages of life, on good hair- and bad hair days, love making love.

One of our "sexy adventures" brought us to this private cabin (with its own little pool!) on a game reserve in Northern KwaZulu-Natal. After spending a lazy morning lounging next the pool, we decided on a little "appetiser" before lunch. And so, with the local bird in full chorus, and wind whipping through the African bush, James sampled some of his favourite flavours, while Tamsin tried out some interesting "yoga" moves to get what she wanted.

A road-trip through the Swartland in South Africa at the end of 2019 brought us to a beautiful little cottage on a farm, with THE most comfortable white bed. The morning light on our first morning was absolutely gorgeous, and James couldn't resist taking a few "boudoir" photos. As tends to happen, though, photos led to other things, involving lots of laughter and some yummy creativity with the toys we'd left on the nightstand the night before.
