I think it's fair to say that both Miss Fitz-Postes were genuinely overwhelmed by the feedback we received, everyone from punters to staff seemed really enthusiastic and it's good to know all the hard work we have put in over the last 6 months or so was appreciated. I'm hoping some of the folk who attended will post photos here. Needless to say, I didn't have time to get any shots so am just waiting on tenterhooks to see everyone else's.

Huge thanks as well to everyone who helped out. Champagne Charly did a stellar job with hair and makeup, I want her to style me every single day! And Agapanthus was a sight to behold in her dirndl dress and super realistic vintage baby and was just so amazing to see all her "boys" as soon as folk walked in the door. Viva's performance class were just amazing and added a whole new level of energy to the event, and one of the highlights for me was the site of Impressive Johnson charming the old ladies on the dance floor - that's right, Mr Impressive Johnson is a romancer of the elderly! And they ate it up. And of course Swingstylez did some absolutely top notch dancing - loved the Charleston especially, I could watch those two dance all day long. And last but not leat, thanks to Calliope Cootch and Sunday Blue for being such glamourous cigarette girls.

We will not be resting on our laurels however. Instead we will be looking forward to our next event: set sail on a decadent trans-Atlantic voyage to Jazz Age New York aboard the Fitz Poste Line, embarking January 2010. Mark your diaries now and keep an eye on this space or indeed our website for further details.

It was a pleasure my love!
What a fantastic day, well done ladies. Cant wait to step aboard the Fitz Poste Line!!! soooo excited :kiss:

Thats only cuz I only post process model shoots not live burlesque/ nights out shots etc as i am too busy / lazy :P
I would prob learn so much more if i took the time to do it which in turn would make my photography better.

My piccies -
Ballroom Blitz @ Drill Hall, Edinburgh 13/09/2009 - a set on Flickr

I was there (briefly! due to babysitting duties ) and it was fab!
very well organised and researched well done girlies!
am looking forward to the next event and have already told my friend I will not be looking after her hyperactive 6 year old! - obviously I didn't use those words :lol:
hehe!

Shhhhh Careless talk costs reputations . I like a slightly older, more experienced woman, it's true, but grannies!!!!
Great photies so far and looking forward to see the rest.....finally some pics i can show my folks rather than the usual penis spinning ones

Had an awesome time and looking forward to the next one, well done peeps. :love: Mr IJ

oh but they had such a lovely time Mr Johnson!!

Well, that's my Blitz Ballroom shots up for one and all to see!

I don't know how I missed it, but there is not one photo of Mr Johnson romancing the "more experienced" ladies....

Looks like I don't have what it takes to be a photo journalist after all, missing such a scoop! :twisted:

Lol, that was a high point for me - and, I understand, for the lady in question!
