Speaking of Spanking
By Chelsea Pfeiffer
Please Let Me Introduce Myself
When I was asked by the people at Spanking.com to blog for them, I was flattered. I mean, there are many, many spanking movie producers whom they could have asked and they picked me. I’ll do my best to represent!
You might not all know me, so here’s an introduction. I’m Chelsea Pfeiffer, the co-owner, with my husband Lawrence Selden, of Chelsea Pfeiffer Entertainment, Inc. and websites www.CPEntertainment.com , www.GoodSpanking.com, www.GoodSpankingClassics.com and www.SpankSinn.com . We’ve been in business for slightly over 10 years and, at the time of my writing this, have produced somewhere around 150 spanking movies.
How did I get myself into this, you might ask? For starters, sort of, GoodSpanking used to be a physical magazine, as opposed to an Internet site, and I used to be its editor. But, my story begins even before then.
Before we started our company, I was making bondage and spanking movies for Harmony Concepts, Inc. I began working for Harmony in 1987, in their mailroom, duping videotapes. I have a BFA degree with a specialization in dance, so this was pretty far from that in most ways. But, I was 27 and it was time to end my career as a dancer. As I watched those tapes I was duping I realized I could make those movies. I quickly made it known to the owner of Harmony that I was ready to take on more challenging tasks. An arts degree is an arts degree, no matter the specialization and, in order to get it, I had to learn more than how to dance. I had always been a pretty good writer and, as an artist, I was creative, naturally. It took some convincing, but soon I was out of the mailroom and using my talents and creativity in ALL sorts of ways.
I learned photography and videography. I learned how to tie women up. I wasn’t actually into bondage as a personal fetish for me, but I understood it. I related to it on a creative level. I liked tying women in dancers’ poses. I liked making the women look erotically enticing in bondage and photographing them just so. I was having a pretty good time!
Still, I am a spanking enthusiast, so it wasn’t long before I learned of Eve Howard and Shadow Lane through Kiri Kelly, a fetish model who had worked with both Harmony and Shadow Lane. Kiri and I had become friends and she told me of her adventures while appearing in Shadow Lane movies. I was so envious! I wanted to be in those movies…to be the center of attention and get SPANKED! The idea scared me and thrilled me, all at once. I wrote to Eve and she asked me to submit photos of myself. Since I was a photographer, I had the idea to shoot spanking still photos. I felt that would be a much more enthusiastic way to introduce myself than a simple head shot. I planned the scenes and, since I was in them, got Kiri to take the photos while my (then) husband, Brian Tarsis, spanked me. Yes, even though they were still photos, he really spanked me so expressions weren’t contrived. Eve liked them so much I ended up on the cover of her magazine, Stand Corrected. With so much in common, Eve and I quickly became friends, too.
Mr. Harmon found out about the fun I was having over at Shadow Lane and saw dollar signs. He got me started making spanking movies for his company. Since bondage was the thing at Harmony, I had no customer base for my movies. I culled a few off Harmony’s mailing list, but not enough to make Mr. Harmon happy. To be completely truthful, I wasn’t happy, either. I wanted to be spanked, not the giver of spankings, or the filmer of spankings. Although, I was naturally pretty good at both giving spankings and filming them, right from the start. I just loved it that much.
When Shadow Lane offered to hire me, I jumped at the chance. I worked for them for a couple of years. It was during that time that Brian Tarsis and I divorced and I met Lawrence, only not quite in that order.
I was lured back to Harmony to be editor in chief for Bondage Life magazine. That was a big deal back then, so I went for it. Soon, I was making spanking movies for Harmony, again! I was a busy girl, editing magazines, shooting bondage AND spanking movies. It was a crazy time. Thank goodness it wasn’t long before I broke off and started my own company. Aaah! I’d finally found my place in life and it’s been pretty darned good ever since. I spank LOTS of lovely women and I can get spanked whenever I want to by my Larry, or in a movie. It’s my choice!
There are a lot details I couldn’t fit in without writing a book, but in a nutshell, this is who I am. Now that you know, let’s get back to the blog. I’m interested in making this a sort of a forum for the spanking community, so I’m asking for suggestions on topics. I want to know what YOU want to talk about. Please feel free to comment with your suggestions, otherwise, I’m the authority here and I’ll just go for it. Ha! Maybe my first topic should be about bratting?

So glad to read your post, Chelsea. I really look forward to reading more. Maybe you could talk about your favorite shoots, or about your favorite spankees!

I’m glad you’re blogging here now Chelsea. I’ve always been a huge fan of your work. As a matter of fact, the first spanking movie I ever saw was Office Politics with you and Darla Crane. I’m glad you’re still doing spanking work. I understand Darla has moved into other adult films.
