A New Chapter: Embracing Family and Future Endeavors
As I shift my focus towards my family and children, I reflect on 14 remarkable years of collaboration with Raymond K. Larum. Though I’ll be stepping back from ballet heels, my creative journey continues as I remain an integral part of the ShinyDollz project.
The Dawn of Our Creative Partnership
It all began in 2009 when I met Raymond, and our shared passion for fashion and ballet sparked an extraordinary collaboration. From the very first day, Raymond, as a skilled model coach, opened up new avenues for me to explore my potential. His studio was where I first embraced the latex corset, marking my initiation into our signature Highstyle concept.
Embracing Highstyle
Raymond introduced me to Highstyle in a way that made sense and excited me. He helped me see latex not as a material burdened by stereotypes but as a versatile fabric for groundbreaking fashion. This perspective was crucial as it freed us to push the boundaries of traditional fashion photography.
Breakthrough with Ballet Heels
In March 2010, we conducted our first full shoot for my upcoming ballet heels website. Initially, I was unsure, but Raymond’s patience and guidance in teaching me how to move and pose were invaluable. That day was filled with fun; we completed my first video and took countless photos, affirming my confidence in our partnership.
Trailblazing in Highstyle Ballet Imagery
That day was not only about launching a website but also setting a new standard with our highstyle ballet photos. These pioneering images showcased our unique creative synergy, laying the groundwork for what would become a defining feature of my career. We discussed the vast potential these ventures could have for my professional growth, delving into the strategy behind internet pay websites and personal branding.
Years of Creative Evolution
The project we started back then has grown immensely over the years, and I am thrilled with what we’ve achieved. Living with Raymond in his new photo studio in Cologne for some months, I got to know him not just as a partner but as a best friend. His fearless creativity and willingness to try almost anything have led us to create some truly fantastic photographs and videos.
Looking Forward
While stepping back from certain aspects of my previous work, I am excited about what lies ahead with ShinyDollz. This transition is an opportunity to embrace new challenges while dedicating time to my family.
Thank you, Raymond, for a partnership filled with creativity, growth, and innovation. Here’s to new beginnings and continued success in the world of fashion and beyond!
Miss Alexandra, I have known this day was coming, as you announced the search for your replacement more than a year ago. While it’s a sad day for me, to realize it is now official, I am happy for you and your family. You have been my favorite model for more than a decade, since I first saw your photos! You have the rare ability to combine and present prettiness, sexiness, elegance and joy in your photo shoots. The arrival of a new photo shoot on the website always brightened my day, and I never stopped being amazed at how graceful you were in those ballet heels. I can’t imagine the exercises you likely needed to do to not only be able to do that when you were younger, but also to be able to continue to do that for more than a decade! So, I just want to say thank you one last time, and to wish you nothing but the best for your future. Raymond says he is working on finding a replacement, but I have a feeling that will be an impossible task. No one will ever be able to replace your unique look and grace. Goodbye, Miss Alexandra, and my best wishes for a wonderful future!!
Thank you for your touching words. I’m deeply moved by your appreciation for my work over the years. As I step into a new chapter, I cherish these memories and am confident that Raymond’s search for a new face will continue this legacy of creativity. Thank you once again for your loyalty and best wishes.
Hope you never end wearing latex and balletheels. You looking so beatyful in it. Love to see you wearing balletheels
I’ve decided to stop wearing ballet heels. After 14 years, it’s time for a change. I’ll be exploring new interests as my schedule allows.
You should travel in the world of steel….corset, belt, bra and also ballet boots made of steel could be a new adventure and an amazing evolution of your modelling journey
I have already other plans as you could read. 🙂
