I’ve decided to move to a new blog site for my burlesque and pin-up photography. I’m just trying to do a bit of reorganizing and maybe make this area a bit more PG rated to show off my other areas of photography. Afterall it would be a bit strange to see nothing but half naked performers if I’m trying to show off my wedding photography. LOL
So this space will get a bit less skin but for those that can’t get enough of it, get a load of my new alias and blog site below:

You wouldn’t have bouncin’ boobies if you don’t have music! Opening the TOR show on Thursday night was the fabulous Los Shimmy Shakers. Unfortunately this was also the last gig for their bass player (auditions going on now). Also an awesome guest vocalist was Scott Holderby. Not sure who shook the stage more….the gogo dancer or himself. It was a shame that he only graced the stage for a song.

Bombshell Betty’s Burlesqueteers perform in a stunning Water Ballet. Esther Williams eat your heart out!
More show images to come!

Watch this space! I’ll be shooting the upcoming Tease O Rama show next week.
This past Monday night at the local Oakland watering hole Uptown hosted another of Bombshell Betty’s burlesque revue with the theme of Take it to Eleven. And yes the performers shook it as if their life depended on it. What a fabulous show (as usual) with Betty’s students and graduates. And with a great live band, it’s $5 well spent!
Performer’s, please contact me if you’re interested in photos of your performance. LowePhoto@mac.com

Images below are just a tiny fraction of what I took.
No I haven’t been idle since my last posting. Maybe a bit lazy in the updates department, but not idle.
At the beginning of the month (March) I shot a gig performed by Adelante at a restaurant called Casa Sanchez in SF. You might be familiar with the name Casa Sanchez from their awesome salsas at your favorite supermarket. The restaurant was a bit underwhelming though. Shooting in such a tight space with a large band was quite a challenge.
Last week’s Xmas show was epic with tons of acts and a slew of new performers. So many that I’m having a hard time remembering their names. Please contact me and I’ll caption the rest of the photos.
Here’s some sample shots of the show. Yes I took lots more than you see below and I got shots of all the acts. Performers, feel free to contact me for your performance shots.
Starting in 2012 I’ll be more entrepreneurial with my photos so pick them up now while I’m still being generous.
Going back to this past August, I was invited to shoot this East Bay troupe at the Saturn Club in Berkeley. The stage was tiny and the lighting was almost non-existant. But the girls (& boy) had a blast as you can see from the photos. Hopefully I’ll get to shoot them again.
Performers: if you don’t already have them I have photos of every performances. If you’re interested I’d be happy to send your pics to you.
Last week’s show at the Uptown in Oakland. Yes (mostly) naked ladies having fun. The theme was…you guessed it, sports. Although I’ll be posting burlesque shoots on a regular basis, I’ll try not to show too many boobie shots out of respect for the performers. I will try to show the joy and positive energy that the ladies have for their performances. Click on the thumbnails to enlarge.
Any performers that are interested in shots of their performances are welcomed to contact me for images. I usually have shots of every performers from each show. Below are just a few teasers.
By request I’m available for shoots of performances or performers.
