I'll start off by saying I have never done anything like this before and have never had the confidence to try! I went for an adult cake smash photoshoot to celebrate an important moment and as soon as I walked in I was made to feel welcome and totally relaxed. Lots of laughs too! I will most certainly be back to try more fun shoots! Thank you!

I recently had a studio burlesque shoot with Blench Photography and honestly, I couldnt be happier with how it went. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel completely comfortable and confident which is so important when you're in front of the camera, especially in such a bold and expressive style like burlesque.
They were incredibly helpful with poses, offering great direction without it ever feeling forced, and really understood how to capture the character and flair of each look.
One thing I especially appreciated: they didnt even bat an eye when I started singing mid-shoot to get into the zone for my sing-and-fling act! It really helped bring out the authentic energy and emotion in the photos, and they totally encouraged it.
Ive also know that Blench photography have an amazing knack for catching those perfect, high-energy moments on stage whether its the twirl of a fan or that cheeky end pose. The photos always feel full of life and drama, just like the performance itself. A perfect addition to any show.
Im already looking forward to my giant martini glass shoot with them later this year I know its going to be something special!
Highly recommend for any performers looking to capture the magic of burlesque, both in the studio and on stage.
