I spent a TFP (Time for Prints) session with Elitsa Nencheva, a freelance pole dancer based in Bulgaria. The brief was simple: photograph the discipline as athletic craft — lines, control, and the pause between moves — not only as performance.
We worked through poses that show strength and flexibility, then slowed things down for quieter frames. Studio light and careful framing did most of the work; Elitsa did the rest.
