This time it's back to Melton Mowbray with the girls and boys at 1st Class Fitness, run by the incredible Donna Gant. This was the first time shooting hoop and silks too, very different dynamic to pole work with an entirely different vocabulary. With the amount of circus facilities over in Melton it won't be long before I'm shooting trapeze and stiltwork too!
A dark, moody look on this shoot in contrast with some of the white background work I've done in Melton in the past. This caused some serious headaches when it came to the post processing as due to cold conditions overnight the backdrop paper had wrinkled up something awful as you can see in the example below!
I have never considered myself a photogenic person, but I am incredibly proud of the great photos I have from my two shoots with Den. His knowledge of pole moves is excellent, and he knows how to make you look amazing and show your personality, and still recognisably you. Can't wait for the next one to show my progress!
