Halloween and Christmas with Voodoo Queen Tuesday Laveau

Due to a flurry of commercial and PR freelance shoots in recent weeks there hasn’t been much time for blogging but while archiving some images I thought a couple of a local burlesque star should be brought to your attention.

Behind the scenes burlesque and boudoir photo shoot

Regular blog readers may have notice the link to my recently created YouTube channel. So far it contains a few photo sildeshows and now my first stab at a ‘behind the scenes’ video.
