A CABINET PORTRAIT OF CABARET GIRLS


The Itty Bitty Tease Cabaret
Photography by Atelieri Onyxei Haapala


If you're out and about around here try to spot where they are and have your portrait taken! Otherwise, browse around their gallery for some great sets of portraits.

(The photo above is scanned from a print, the digital version is much brighter. I prefer the printed one - and just got a big print of us, without thext, framed in black and gold. Now I just need to figure out where to put it; I'm running out of wallspace :)

SUNDAY / MARCH

I can't belive it's march already - time goes so fast, but still summer seems so very very far away...
Anyway, it's Sunday so as usual I'll go all soft with the songs again.



Well, there's not much else to be said here.

(Even thoguh I, strangely enough, wasn't completely sold after seing the movie. I liked it, but I did not love it. I guess mostly since I read about it already in the making of-stage and kept hearing about it for a year until it finally came here - which had brought me to the point where I felt I was about to see the world's eight wonder appear on the silverscreen. Which is wasn't, but it's a film that does grow on you, and did become better when I saw it again a few years later. What I like about it is perhaps that it really does feel like you are wathcing someone's memories instead of living the present; remembering endless summer days, a thick warm wind moving the leaves of a tree almost like in slow motion, sheer pastel colours in a pale and soft morning light, the deaht wishes of a young girl.)
