Before Facebook and smart phones film was king. In 1996 professional photographers laughed at the cheap digital camera I started bringing into strip clubs. Five years later they weren't laughing anymore. This was the time to create magic. And thanks to so many topless club owner friends of mine, adult magazines I wrote for such as "Xtreme Magazine", top feature talent agencies such as Pure Talent, and so many adult entertainer friends of mine, we created a lot of magic. Which we will probably never see the likes of again. On my alphapro.com web site I claim to be the first to bring digital photography into strip clubs. Well, maybe someone else did, but I sure haven't heard about him. While I had a local club provide me with my own phone line to access the internet, free drinks on the house, and my own table just five feet from the club's main stage. We (my dancer and club manager friends and I) could shoot all the pictures we wanted from my digital camera, put them on my laptop and broadcast them all over the world through our Lost Angels chat. No one else was doing it. Those guys shooting film just didn't get it. While the dancers I knew did and my manager and owner friends running the clubs were very quick at grasping what this new technology could do for them. Those were incredible times back then. Which in the new world of post Covid 19, Facebook and the Smart Phone we are likely to never see again.
