Cecilia Rouge Photoshoot

My second photoshoot with burlesque lady Cecilia Rouge. This one was commissioned by the Leeds based burlesque dancer. Ths shoot was inspired by Cecil Beaton (as usual!) And was a homage to some of his fashion portraits of the 1920's. The set and styling was done by myself and Cecilia did her own hair and makeup.

The Dress is made from plastic sheeting, balloons and embellished with sequinned trims that Cecilia picked up on her trip to New York at the start of this year.

The background is made up of tin foil and tacky tinsel background off Ebay. The whole shoot was shot in my tiny flat with two desk lamps for lighting. The shoot was edited in Photoshop.

To see more of this set you can go to my Flickr, which is now a Pro account: www.flickr.com/jaynerobinson88.

To find out more about Cecilia Rouge and Leeds Burlesque you can visit her homemade website at www.leedsburlesque.co.uk where you will also see some photos from my first shoot with Cecilia, nearly a year ago. I've certainly improved since then!
