Yes, is still all about the Pin Up

 I had a great time putting my second Pin Up session together. I worked with really talented professionals and I just love the results.
I never thought it was so hard to find the right props! Many hours at antique stores were required to find just a handful props, which will be used soon. I can't wait to do the military and sailor scenes, the skates, the baseball and many other ideas.
 I also wanted to give my own spin to the Pin up genre. Maybe it looks like so many others, I hope not. It is a fine line, to be able to keep it recognizable enough, you must follow certain "guidelines". It's also a very different approach to my normal take on light. My whole contrast idea, rough on soft, Ying- Yang, had to be put on the back burner to come up with soft, dreamy, girlie and cute images.
 I think we succeeded. This particular session was about four hours. we ended up so tired but extremely excited with the results. Besides the session time, it took two and a half days of preparation, gathering outfits, props, changing the studio space, making gadgets to help the work flow improve. Lots of work, getting ready for the next Pin Up special, which we anticipate will be as successful as the boudoir one. Just for more conservative yet very sexy ladies!
