TRAUMA 2012 – Take 1
TRAUMA was awesome as always this year. It was again at The Bluestone which is just an awesome events venue LOVE that place! The costumes were hot, the drinks were cool, and the acts were out of this world. That party never disappoints. If you have not gone yet, it is definitely something to put on your Columbus Ohio party bucket list!
Here are my favorite photos of the first night – the remainder (there are almost 300!) of the photography from both nights can be found in a gallery below my top picks.
All of the guest photos I took are in the gallery if you are looking for yours! Feel free to share them online – just be sure to leave the watermark, and tag the Provocatique facebook page or Twitter page appropriately 
If you are looking for a photo a photographer took of you, and didn’t find it here, head over to the TRAUMA website!
Lady of My Land was my first encounter of the evening – she had an interactive spanking performance – oh yeah! The music was awesome too… of course.
Viva! and The Velvet Hearts! did an AMAZING number this year on the main stage. There were demons, blood, sin, glitter and boobs everywhere!
Be sure to go get info for the Fierce Burlesque festival – coming to a town near you – with 4 nights in Columbus!
Pandora Foxx did a haunting, beautiful, and hot damn nearly nude number. I love Pandora, if you haven’t seen her perform you have missed out.
Alorha Donahue had fun with fast food – and a FABULOUS costume!
Strip Pokeher did a bloody take on a classic balloon burlesque number – spattering ensued – I braved the elements, and am glad I did!
LOVE THIS GUY! Such a fan girl I am. Graceful, and creepy all at the same time. Bravo!
Kaiser Colonic was fierce in that glittery black bodypaint. I got to watch him apply it, I know you are jealous.
Oh Viva! My lovely bestie. You looked like a badass angel on that stage. WORK!
Yep, that happened.
Cloudhaus did some painting, my favorite:
Coreroc was roaming with the lovely ladies and bangin body paint
I THINK that I met the painter of this piece, I will add her if she did it… terrible memory.
FUCK YEAH! My favorite costume of the night for sure!
Antoinette Seducteur performing with Kinky Kitty Cabaret
Ladymonster was a treat as always – no pun intended. Smores anyone?
Some Janaan Al Jahanni bellydance
Miss Theresa‘s number was certainly my favorite from the downstairs burlesque acts I caught. Her partner was thoroughly enjoying herself
I’m not positive who did this gas mask number but I love the photos!
Moi. I worked VERY hard on this costume. Think it paid off? Note the blood spatter on my bodice lol
Hello!
Anna and The Annadroids were fantastic as always. Anna had an Annadroid Jr on stage – fun! While you are here – you should drop by their Indiegogo project for Clone Zone. Show them some love Columbus! You can score autographed swag from the troupe for donating
How fabulous is this? Please know I intentionally take these photos like this, it is not a happy mistake – though it is not an exact science and there is a lot of “let’s see how it turns out” involved. I was super happy with these results!
A little Guilty Pleasures fun
This year was my 7th TRAUMA – and I can personally testify that His Holiness The Pope has been at EVERY SINGLE ONE
Eye see you! Either you get this one, or you don’t. If you don’t, you should get out more if you live in Columbus!
Roevy. Love Roevy. Period. They rock the house. Always. Plus they look cool.
Look – if your Halloween party doesn’t look like this – you need a new party

TRAUMA 2011 – Two
TRAUMA is a great place to catch some suspensions. Mute-one, Jamie mayhem, Dave K, Marsh, Lauren D, Bella Vendetta of The Suspension Artist Collective put on a fantastic show!
Bella Vendetta is smokin hot – I am sad I didn’t get better shots of her suspension. There’s always the next show!
The one on the right is crap, I only posted it because they took the photo at the exact same moment I did and that blew me away. The flare is pretty right?
Some fun costumes from the first night…
The man that makes it all happen, and the woman behind him!
The BP guys complete with dead sea creatures
Jim Morrison stopped by
I have no idea… but I dig his costume 
My favorite!
The Pope comes to TRAUMA every year, it’s that awesome.
I’ve got no idea what this is, I think it’s a rockstar shrimp. I’ve searched my lil mind for a pop culture reference but I’m coming up dry.
Random partiers
This girl was glowing all night loved it
I took this photo because of the shadow, then found out I knew the guy!
She’s on stilts… too bad I was more focused on her boobs. Thats my job!
Super sleuths!
They had an aborted demon baby strapped to his back. Try as I might I couldnt get a shot of it. Its head spun and it had glowing red eyes!
Bunny emcee Lars made the costume contest loads of fun
STILL more photos….
Miss the first round? Swing by the original post:

TRAUMA 2009
Event photography of TRAUMA 2009.
TRAUMA 2009 was so huge that it took up both the Sugar Bar and Park Street Patio! It was a fabulous time as always. If you’ve never heard of TRAUMA you should check it out. It is the hottest costume party in Columbus AND is also a charity event so you can do good while being naughty! Provocatique is and always will be proud sponsor of TRAUMA.
TRAUMA is an annual Halloween fetish party – for more info take a look at the TRAUMA website.
I decided to make all of my images black and white for this year just to shake things up a bit.
The violet wand booth. What is a violet wand? It’s an electric generating machine. It is called violet wand because unit has a globe on the top with an electrical storm in it just like the ones you touch and the electricity follows your fingers. They are WAY COOL! You can hook metal things up to it and they lightly zap the person you are playing with. In this photo the metal object is a set of chains, he is lightly whipping her skin with them as they shock her. When I say shock I mean like a carpet static shock. They carry them at The Chamber!
Someone has been a naughty girl!
I think that’s probably a genuine smile, since his arm is about to go in to a grope box
Ladies with Adventures in Sexuality in a rope bondage suspension scene
The headliner for 2009 was Madison Young. I actually got to spend some time talking to her in the green room, she’s a great lady. She creates porn like you have never seen before go take a look at Madison Bound her website! I really love that her films feature REAL lesbians! She did an abduction scene that was pretty controversial among attendees. Some loved it, some did not. Personally, I admire her for pushing the envelope!
She arrived to the stage over the shoulder of her captor in a trash bag!
And was promptly tied up
Somehow got the upper hand…
And called up a ride out of there!
Costume contest finalists. The beef girl won. I was personally rooting for Elmo warrior girl
Roevy! My favorite shot of the night.
Titonton played the Revenge Of The Nerds rap as their opener and I was a fan for life!
Yes, that is a large foot.
I complain to myself about not having a good seat for the Lindsay Hearts runway set… but I suppose the view wasn’t SO bad…
Anna and The Annadroids performed some great live music. The visuals weren’t too shabby either!
Rainer DJ set
The… end.
