What do you recommend pole dancers do to help you take the best photo possible?

What backgrounds do you prefer to use?

What are the main differences you notice between photographing pole dancers, burlesque performers, and other genres?

I suppose the main difference is anyone who does any sort of performance professionally is always a lot more confident in front of the camera. Anyone who is new to it is a bit stiff to begin with, but that’s where I come in to give you a glass of wine and tell you you look great!

Favorite makeup tip:

Dried up mascara wand to fix and shape eyebrows.

Barefoot, sneakers, or platform heels?

Trainers without a doubt! I have 34 pairs.

Favorite grip enhancer:

Never tried any. I want to, though. I once tried using hairspray – not good.

Pole dance move that made you proudest to learn:

Probably doing a Straight Edge because I managed to do it before any of my mates! Sorry, girls!

Favorite treatment for bruises and sore muscles:

Tiger Balm for sore muscles. Concealer for bruises!

Who would you most like to have in the audience when you pole dance?

People that appreciate and enjoy what you are doing. It’s nice to have a positive, responsive audience.

Who is your hero or role model?

Hero … Michael Jackson! I’m a massive fan!

What are your favorite words of encouragement?

Practice makes perfect.

Favorite pizza toppings:

Spinach, feta, and black olives. I love pizza!

Cupcakes or ice cream?

Urm, I really had to think about this … cupcakes.
