Betty Quirk as Lydia Deetz

My second spooky babe of the week is Miss Betty Quirk!

Burlesque performer and Co-Producer of Peepshow TO, Betty Quirk has been thrilling audiences with one of her signature acts as Lydia Deetz from Beetlejuice.  I finally had the chance recently to capture some photos of her in this phenomenal costume with her Sand Worm hand puppet.  If you want to see Betty perform this act and others, you can catch in her Yellowknife on Halloween at the Movie Madness Burlesque Show.  Now please enjoy these photos of Betty Quirk as Lydia Deetz!

Betty Quirk

Today’s model is a truly unique beauty, the purple princess, Betty Quirk!  Not only does Betty have a killer, colourful look, this Nerdlesque performer and producer has a style all her own when it comes to Burlesque.  She is the co-producer of Peepshow TO, in which she has brought together comedy, pop culture and striptease in a series of spectacularly successful shows.  And after a short hiatus Peepshow TO is back in action with their latest show Super Smash Bras: A Nintendo Inspired Burlesque.  You won’t want to miss this incredibly talented lady and her gaggle of hotties (myself included) for this outstanding event!

A Midsummer Night’s Dream

I had the pleasure of performing at Kitty Night’s Midsummer Night’s Dream show on August 15th.  It was a wonderful evening of dreamy burlesque.  I performed my Sugar Baby routine in a sugary, sparkly, pale pink robe which I made.  My head was adorned with a lovely bird fascinator from Featherband.  Please enjoy some photos from the evening and one from my friend Lick My Lens Cap photography, of me in this outfit!

Burlesque babe and hula-hooper extraordinaire Rubie Magnitude is the model of the week!  Donning a gorgeous red lingerie set from Secrets From Your Sister, the lovely Rubie looks sensual and sweet.  Rubie was a smash hit this past weekend at the Toronto Burlesque Festival, where she debuted a new act in which she multi-tasked hula hooping and feather fan dancing!  I am thrilled to welcome Rubie to the Dolly Shots portfolio with her first set of portraits.  Enjoy!

Zilly Lilly

I am beyond excited to share this set of photos with you from my second epic photoshoot as photographer for Dolly Shots!

First up is the fabulous, fun, effervescent Zilly Lilly!  I seriously cannot say enough good things about this gal.   Besides being the kind of beauty that you just can’t help staring at, Zilly is a passionate person, immersing herself completely in everything she does.  She is a fireball of energy and endless creativity.  If you want to see that creativity in action you can catch Zilly at the Toronto Burlesque Festival this weekend for their Pop Culture night on Saturday.

I love the personality that Zilly brought to her first photo set and I hope you enjoy looking at these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them!

Joan Harris Cosplay

I am thrilled to finally be able to share with you this set of photos from my collaboration with Elizabeth Horodnyk.  This set was inspired by my favourite character on my favourite tv show, Joan Harris from Mad Men.  Joan is a strong, independent, bad ass woman who does it all while looking fabulous and elegant.  On top of all that Joan has curves for days, making her the perfect subject for me to cosplay.  The dress was made by me and the necklace is a replica of the signature necklace Joan wears on the show.  Please enjoy my little tribute to Mad Men and Joan Harris!
