Hello all of my beautiful SuicideGirls friends:
Sending you a little update from the road on the SuicideGirls Blackheart Burlesque tour. :) We are in Portland Maine today! Which means we have hit the half way point and our furthest point east on the tour and we start heading for back over the next 5 weeks toward our final stop in back in LA on June 24th.
It's so surreal how fast 5 and a half weeks can go and how fast the first half has gone.... But before I get sad about it being half over, I will first enjoy every minute of the second half.
We've still got 29 cities left so come out and see us if you're in:
Portland Maine, Boston, S. Burlington VT, Clifton Park NY, Cleveland, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Lexington, Nashville, St. Louis/Sauget, Indianapolis, Chicago, La Crosse, Milwaukee, Madison, Minneapolis, Fargo, Sioux Falls, Billings, Seattle, Portland, Eugene, San Francisco, Petaluma, Sacramento, Santa Cruz, Fresno, and finally in LA again, we would love it if you came out to see us.
We've already been flashing our titties in the first 30 cities :) And we can't wait to do it in 29 more!
(note that the Xs are scarred into @peneloppe's boobs. The life of a dancer is amazing, but it's not easy.
@sunny @peneloppe and I have a little tradition of waking up early in DC to take pics. :) Here's this year's fun :)
We had a blast in DC. We got to stand where Dr. King stood when he made his "I Have A Dream" speech.
and express our current disappointment in the potus.
and be inspired by Honest Abe.
Then it was on to NY where @Missy flew in to us and we finally got a picture of all 9 of the girls on the first crew :)
@katherine @peneloppe @liryc @lucerne @shay @bricksie me, @arwen and @sunny :) with the amazing and beautiful @missy and our awesome driver George.
Its been about a week from this shot. We've since lost our british beauty @Katherine as she had to return to the UK to work on RECKLESS her new brand!
And @arwen also heads back home in a few days to manage the tattoo shop she works at in Portland Oregon. It's always hard to lose a team member but we have new ladies flying in and out throughout tour so I guess we better get used to it.... This week we get to welcome @cheri and @mernie to the tour (we feel like it might take two girls to replace the assistant work that the amazing @arwen was doing for us). I have to say that she was one of the best tour assistants of all time and we will miss her SO much! :)
We also welcomed a new dancer this week, @lascaux has joined the crew on the road and in just a few days she looks like she's been out with us all along. And got to work with the beautiful @ayaka for just a week. We are so excited to be bringing new ladies on to the team and hope to get to tour with them all even more in the future <3 <3 <3
We got to visit the Inked Magazine offices in NYC and stream live and shoot for the magazine. I took some behind the scenes while the Inked staff worked their magic.
Steph shooting @peneloppe
@bricksie shooting a video clip at Inked
tour manager views are the bootiefull :)
Mermaid shooting mermaid ;)
They ended the shoot by bringing the girls outside in the streets of NYC in their Star Wars costumes. It was epic.
It was super amazing for me because it has been a dream of mine to be published in Inked Magazine for my whole career, and the first issue that I've got photos in came out on April 20th and was on the shelves at Inked :) You might recognize the barely @boomie on the left or my nor cal loveeee Sonia Tiger on the right. :) if you see the 420 Issue on Newsstands with Wiz Khalifia, pick up a copy and check out the 5 page spread of these babes as well as some shots I took of @jennings
I'm already working on my next submissions and planning the future shoots I will shoot ;) Hit me up if you want to create.
I wish I could catch you up on everything we've done but road life is hectic. here's a few more favorite shots from the first half :
At The Bends in St Petersburg (thanks to these guys for hosting us on our day off and having an Un fun Emo party for us! :)
Florida was good times. :)
@bricksie @shay and @katherine hanging up an SuicideGirls dollar on the beach bar. We like to leave our mark
And thanks to ALLLL of the SGs and hopefuls who have come out to the shows to party with us and make us feel at home in your city! I wish I could post you ALL! And even more, I wish we had time to spend with everyone everywhere. ;) Sorry if we missed getting to hang with you in your city, our free time is over before we know it.
SuicideGirls that we recruited on tour a few years back @abbeyso with @katherine <3
One of our dancers @whiskey who met her husband on the tour a few years back and now has a beautiful family. In Phoenix with her son Blue and @arwen
Italian babe @eden was in New Mexico training for her next fight and came out with @troa to hang with us!
Babes on babes on babes in Austin, or maybe this was San Antonio! ;) We love the Texas girls so much! :)
Some fun in Florida with @annasthesia and our future tour manager assistant in a few weeks @torie <3
I could go on and on, but the one hour I have a day at Starbucks has melted away and it's time to meet the girls for lunch.
Thanks for stopping by.
As alway, my life revolves around the sets that I shoot.
including my newest set of @oceana who I have been obsessed with shooting since I met her. It's our 3rd set for SG so hopefully 3rd time is a charm!
This isn't a picture from the set, it's just another bad ass picture of her :)
I leave you with that. I have SO much more to update you on, but for now, the tour calls!
Follow me on IG at @sunniesunshine for little daily updates, or follow @sgblackheartburlesque for links to all of the girls on tour and details on where we are at.
Hope to see many of you at a VIP MEET AND GREET ;) It's a pretty fun time ;)
xoxox wild and free
