Photos by Manela Esculsa

Here are some very special photos taken by incredible photographer Manel Esculsa. 

The photos have been taken over two years at the Barcelona Burlesque night; Taboo.

I'm in love with the dream-like etherealness of the shots.

Taboo, Barcelona

I'm really being spoilt for photos, and videos this week! Here are a few shots of my recent show in Barcelona for a Club called Taboo, at the Sala Apolo. 

Taken by a lovely photographer called Nuria Ocana. You can see more of her photos here: http://www.flickr.com/groups/canon_550d/pool/43908394@N03/

I seriously love working for Taboo, they're so professional, and easy going. I always have such a great time there, and that fortunately makes for brilliant performances!

A silent movie Halloween with Neil Kendall!

Here's a few photos taken by phenomenal burlesque portrait photographer,  Neil Kendall.   We shot these on Hallowe'en, and I personally think that they have a 'spooky' old movie feel to them... (Do not use without permission!)

Champagne Circus - Helsinki. Atelieri O. Haapala photos!

At the Champagne Circus two phenomenal Finnish photographers; Saara Salmi and Marco Melander aka Atelieri O. Haapala, set up a beautiful vintage circus themed photobooth for audience members and artists to have their portraits snapped in the style of classic (circus) cabinet portraiture!

Atelieri O. Haapala work many public events in Helsinki, and they also do numerous private photoshoots too, here's their website: http://www.ohaapala.com/

Here's some after show shots of myself and the Champagne Circus cast and crew, it was such a relief to stop producing/performing and have a drink and a chat with audience members and friends!

I have put all of the live shots from The Champagne Circus, and the audience portraits on the Champagne Circus Blog; www.champagnecircus.blogspot.com
