Project X Goes Live

May 6, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

Firstly the pole shoot went well (I think)! I have yet to see the pics but we worked our backsides off and made a pretty good team, I might add. So I’m hoping there must be some money shots there. I certainly have the bruises to prove it! Watch this space people…. Secondly, I can now finally launch Project X. I have been collecting a few of my illustrations which people have “liked” on the blog and decided to get […]

Perfect Pointe

April 30, 2013 by igetakickoutofyou

How gorgeous is this shoot from an equally gorgeous blog called Travelling Mama? Makes me want to turn back the clock, be a ballerina, live in Copenhagen and ……organise my wardrobe while on pointe (perhaps not!)

Haven’t done that in a while, I can tell you. The […]

Vintage Ballet Gets Edgy – Part 2

August 29, 2012 by igetakickoutofyou

Continuing on from Vintage Ballet Part 1, here are some more gorgeous images. I don’t know about you but these seem much more West Side Story than Swan Lake. I love the first image – she looks such a cool cat. Nothing left to say other than loving those zebra pants! (All images by Serge Lido, last image by Baron)

Vintage Ballet by Serge Lido Part 1

August 22, 2012 by igetakickoutofyou

At the weekend I was extremely fortunate to have been given these exquisite vintage ballet books from the 1950’s. Basically two of my greatest passions rolled into one – vintage and dance. Serge Lido was born in Moscow and became one of the greatest photographers of dance in the twentieth century. Based in Paris he and his wife Irene Lidova travelled Europe creating a magnificent record of contemporary and classical ballet. Since there are so many images to choose from […]
