Vampira

Happy Halloween!

This year I decided to pay tribute to legendary Horror Babe Vampira!  Tyrone Islington and I took a little trip to the cemetery to take some spooky photos of the costume I made.  I had some help with the incredible claws from my friend Vall.

Star Wars Babes

Henrietta VIII is the most powerful crime lord in the galaxy and Betty Quirk is exactly her kind of scum. Being dangerous space criminals has never looked so good! These ladies are ready to showcase the perfect balance of flawless pinup style and a total lack of morals.

Betty Quirk may have no love for the empire – but she loves to pose in her finest Mandalorian armour exactly “as you wish”. Ho ho ho… Be careful to stay on Henrietta’s good side because this Hutt does not take kindly to disappointments. When not posing for the camera she enjoys decorating her home with people who have betrayed her, frozen in carbonite. Don’t worry though – both of these sci-fi femme fatales agree that you’re no good to them dead!

Disney Mer-Babe Henrietta VIII

My beautiful friend Henrietta VIII is back this week with a Disney inspired ensemble.  Her Little Mermaid dress was made by me out of an old set of  bedsheets.  Her amazing mermaid mini mouse ears are from Disneyland where her and her hubby honeymooned.

Please enjoy this under the sea set with Henrietta VIII!

Leelando as Pinup Bettie

Leelando Calrissian is flaunting his feminine side with this week’s flirtatious photoset.  Bringing Bettie Page realness, this vintage-loving vixen is tight laced, tucked and totally in control.  Looks like man-candy, Matt Muir, needs a little lesson in discipline from Mistress Leelando.

You can catch drag/burlesque beauty Leelando at Spielberg-lesque on March 5th at the Great Hall in Toronto.  Click here to purchase tickets to this Peepshow TO production.

2015: Another Fabulous Year!

2015 was a spectacular year for me!  I went to New York City, Orlando, Montreal and Detroit.  I performed in the Girlesque Expo, the Toronto Burlesque Festival and Pride Toronto.  I got three new tattoos including a BFF tattoo with Betty Quirk.  I watched one of my best friends get married.  I launched Dolly Shots Photography.  But most importantly I had a blast doing all these things with my fabulous friends.

The theme of this year for me was Girl Power!  I continue to surround myself with the smartest, funniest and coolest group of gals who are constantly inspiring me.  They are loving and supportive and always there to give advice, encouragement or share a cute cat photo!  I feel so lucky and blessed to have these women in my life.

I have big plans ahead for next year!  Stay tuned for more fabulousness in 2016!
