red
We heard you loud and clear - a pole shoot is long overdue! You loved the red concept with our aerialists but you're not going to want to miss being apart of this coming shoot exclusively for pole dancers.
This pole dance photoshoot is a celebration of your strength, artistry, and dedication. Against a rich red backdrop, every line, movement, and expression is captured with care, creating bold, striking images that honor the work you’ve put in. Join us for a thoughtful, elevated experience designed for you to feel seen, confident, and powerful. Be prepared to arrive 20 minutes prior to your booked time slot to be fully warmed up and prepared before your session time begins.
The evening of February 1, 2026.

What to wear
If there is one thing I hope you take away from this section it is that you test run your costume in an open gym. Make sure your outfit is "upside down proof". If I can't post it on Instagram, I can't photograph it. If you'd like further clarification on what I mean by that feel free to reach out before the shoot.
I also highly recommend bringing a backup outfit. Let's face it, this sport can be rough on articles of clothing. If something rips or tears the day of, you'll be happy to have another option packed.
As for colors, my favorite look is a red costume on a red backdrop. It's chic and reads like high fashion. (Anyone is welcome to borrow my red Pleasers for the shoot, size 9). Alternatively an all white or black outfit would be able to contrast the backdrop. If you're planning ahead a deep green can instantly transform this concept into a holiday theme. I love to give my take on costuming so please don't be afraid to reach out with any questions.
FAQ
Can I bring a friend to the shoot?
Please do! In fact, I recommend it. Having another person in your corner who can help read off your move list if you forget and join in on hyping you up can be a great addition. Just a reminder though that only registered participants will be in front of the lens.
what time should i be there?
Early. Arrive 20 minutes prior to your booked session. This is for your safety. No one should neglect a proper warm up. Late comers will not be accommodated. If it's your first time dropping by the studio Jade X, first of all, welcome, second of all, give yourself extra time in your commute to locate us.
I'm not available this date, can we do this shoot another time?
Yes! Please inquire about a private booking. More information can be found under of "pricing tab" found under "more" in the web header.
Can I take behind the scene videos on my phone?
Please do! As stated in the contract, all DSLR and mirrorless cameras are not allowed on set but cell phones are more than welcome.
Can I do a costume change?
Absolutely, but please note that your shoot time does not pause for the time it takes for you to change.
how are photos chosen?
An album with the proofs (unedited photos) will be sent your way through an emailed link within 48 hours of the shoot to make your selection. These 10 photos will be professionally retouched. Want us to make the selection? No worries. If no selection has been made after 7 days we will make a selection for you. Were we able to create more than 10 solid works? Want to take those photos home? No problem, additional edits are available for purchase at the cost of $10 per photograph. Also just a reminder that RAW files or unedited images are not distributed under any circumstance as they are not representative of our final product, standards, and branding.
Can I do an aerial apparatus instead of pole?
We can schedule a private photoshoot anytime that features the red backdrop but February 1st is just for polers. Please inquire about a private booking and we'll make it happen!
Poses
Skills, moves, tricks, poses, whatever you call them, they're not all made equal when it comes to still photography. Here are a few questions to ask yourself concerning your move set.
- Can I hold this skill for 10 seconds or longer?
- Is this a familiar skill I've executed well numerous times?
- Have I recorded myself in this skill and find it flattering on me when I play it back and pause?
- Will this skill work with and flatter the costume I'm wearing? (*cough* going upside down in skirts *cough* You can read all about that here.)
- Am I demonstrating clean lines in this skill?
- Is this skill at least one level below my current training level?
- Is this pose time efficient to get in and out of?
- Is my face relaxed in this skill (no popping forehead vein)? Is the fear behind my eyes concealed?
If your answer to any of these was "no", consider scrapping it. I see it over and over again: an artist spends so much of their shoot time attempting to execute a new or complex skill. They get their proofs back and end up wishing they invested more time into simple wraps where they could have rested and demonstrated clean lines.
Even the most experienced aerialists and pole dancers can forget a skill they prepared once they get in the air. This is why I highly recommend making a physical list of your favorite moves for a friend to read off if needed.
