Pole Poetry (A Pole Dancer's Picture Book)

So, recently I was reminded of something I made a few months  ago that never saw the light of day.  A very close friend of mine commissioned me to make a picture book as a gift for her then fiance'.  The book was pictures of her pole dancing.  Now before you guys start making assumptions, NO, she is not a stripper :-P.  She is in fact a married and very successful professional (earning her masters degree from a reputable cal state).  She only pole dances for fun and exercise (with her clothes on) and does so only with other well-to-do peoples :-D.

Anyways, I took the pictures and made the layout, but it turns out that the print book place that she chose only accepted templated layouts.  And since we were out of time, we had to throw together something using their design schemes. 

After rediscovering it now, though, I still kind of like it.  So, after getting consent from the very graceful model, I decided to share with y'all. ;-) 

Cover: 8" x 8" Hardcover Book

page 2 & 3

Text: "I am a dancer.
I twirl, leap, and spin.
I jump, pirouette, and tap.
I am a dancer."

The text on the first page, and throughout the rest of the book is from a poem I found.  I'd like to give credit to the poet, but no one seems to know who wrote it.

The whole book layout can be seen on my flickr: HERE
