When I found out that my pole dance studio was gonna have pole photography shoot day, I was super excited! I signed up right away for a one-hour shoot.
It was really easy working with George from the gecko. I had a lot of questions....what, when, where, how...details! George was so patient with me and took his time to clarify everything and anything regarding the shoot. We must've exchanged emails back and forth for a few days. When I met him on the actual shoot date, we had an instant rapport with each other. He made the entire shoot comfortable, easy and he even made me laugh at times.
The studio's owner Rashida, along with George's assistant helped prop me on the pole for the shoot. Dancing with the pole is completely different than posing for pics on the pole. And it didn't help that I was under spotlights and had to keep inverting over and over again to capture the right shot. George must've taken several hundred photos during that one-hour timeframe. I also ended up changing 5 times.
George and I have became great friends since the shoot. He is fantastic, creative passionate photographer and the best in the field. He has shot at so many different pole studios across LA and I highly recommend him to anyone interested in pole photography. read more
