After a few more session with clothespins I can now endure a full minute! Sadly, the burning sensation is also increasing, and even after I take the clothespins off the pain stings incessantly.

Yesterday, my new rope arrived (6mm, 50m long, cotton) and I tied myself combining a frogtie and hogtie. The session was awesome, almost 2 hours of struggling to get myself free.
Anyways, I couldn't stop thinking of taking some pictures but as you may have guessed, being hogtied is a big obstacle towards taking some quality photos/video. So my question is, what are your techniques when doing solo sessions?
I'm also wondering if there are ways to arch my back a little more? as to make it harder to escape. Take note I'm not trying to make an inescapable knot, just put myself in a stricter position securely.
There is a simple solution to this nowadays. A simple Bluetooth remote release for your mobile phone. It can be set up before you tie yourself and the remote which is smaller than a a car key remote can be secreted in your gloved hand. Then just click away taking as many photo's as you want. They work perfectly.

So did you try the bluetooth remote?

Not yet, technology and I don't mix well. I can't even login to the site without breaking something lol.

I haven't seen any footage from your sessions, but by connecting your ankle ties to your chest harness instead of your wrists, you can achieve some mean arches. And by adding a noose to either the initial anchor point at the ankles or the harness, you can run the rope in a way that it acts like a pulley, requiring less force to tighten it properly. Add a special ring device to fasten it and it will not slip back (make sure to have a pair of scissors ready or use a panic hook to release the tension of the arch tie).
Use a cushion or pillow under your knees to raise your legs up and pull tight.
Don't forget to stretch your upper thighs first, they will be strained hard in this position.
It's a lot easier if you just cross your ankles and tie them and don't tie your knees together.

What's stopping you? You can achieve a fairly extreme back arch in selfbondage, with some concessions for safety of course.
You'd be surprised how much easier it is with the rope acting as a pulley.

Sadly I'm all alone, so my worst nightmare is ending up all tied up knowing no one is going to help me get out.

keep your hands free and a pair of safety shears near by while practising.
The check harness and leg bind part of a hogtie dont need your hands being involved!!

I've seen some useful climbing tools and gear, which I'd say are almost ideal for the kind of thing I want, but they also seems like an overkill for the things I want to do.
Google for "equestrian panic hook".
They should look something like this and are less than $10 usually:
Basically you push the middle part in the direction of the arrow and the hinged hook on the right will snap right open (with quite some force if there is a lot of load on it, so make sure you familiarize yourself with how it works). So as long as you can reach and move the slider (make sure of that!), you can cut the tension to any rope immediately.
Beware that they are usually not rated for suspension though (some have been tested for up to 150 lbs, but I would not recommend using them for suspension releases).
As for your problem to keep the tension up after tightening the rope:
As mentioend, use either a special ring device (bottom of that page, if you're not familiar) or a rope ratchet.
Please note that both of those will only tighten in one direction and not release a single inch of rope the other way when under load. Rope ratchets have a small lever to open, but a) the lever usually is recessed into the casing and hard to operate with numb hands and/or while wearing gloves and b) will not budge if there is no slack on the rope at all, which will very likely be the case in an extreme hogtie (luckily I found that out while practicing).
Hence the need for scissors or a panic hook (ideally both). I would not rely on a timed mechanism like an ice lock, since the strain from an extreme hogtie can easily be overwhelming and may require an instant release.
If you intend to try either the panic hook, SRD or rope ratchets, please practice, practice, practice and familiarize yourself with how they work. Also, don't go overboard with tying your hands (or elbows). I can not stress that enough. An arched hogtie will limit your ability to move your arms quite a bit.
STAY SAFE!
