Vintage Pin-Up with Retro Truck

Mom goes pin up- A gorgeous girl and a rusty old truck

a journey of going from being a
young woman, to a mom, and back again!

   I met Melissa about 3 years ago. Her friend had a pin up party (girls night!) and she booked a spot. There’s a shot of her laying laying down, hair fanned out, corset fitting perfectly, and it still stands as one of my favorite pin up shots I’ve ever done, to date. Her expression just screamed true pin up, which to me is sass and confidence.
   Thinking about who she is now… the fact that in person she is so genuinely sweet and happy… well… again, true pin up.    About a year or so after that we came back together again to do a maternity shoot. A very, very last minute maternity shoot. We’re talking days before her daughter was expected to be here! But we made it and those were amazing as well.    I was ecstatic to find out my perfect little pin up was coming back to me again this year for another shoot!! By this time her goal of dropping the baby weight had happened and she looked phenomenal.
   The first part of her session undoubtedly reminds me of Gilligan’s Island Mary Ann. Just that perfect, innocent, fun beautiful girl. This wasn’t done on purpose, and I think it’s mostly the outfit and the hair, but…
   When Melissa showed me what she had put together for the second part of our session I almost died! Polka dots and stockings. Oh my gosh. And buttons down the skirt… I just love it! This part was so much fun! As much as this was a wonderful way for her to put a mile marker on this time in her life and her progression of going from a petite young woman, to pregnant, to a mom, and back again… I heard her hubby was pretty happy with everything too! Take a look!

Mindy Mayhem- I'm Coming Home

   Whenever I see this collection I hear the City and Color song- “I'm coming home” replay over and over in my head. This beauty who has traveled the world, seen amazing sites, but at the end of the day all she wants to do is come home to love.
   Maybe it's the adorable suitcase or the way she hides an amazing bedroom set under her dress, just to find herself alone, looking out a window over the world.
   Mindy did a wonderful job portraying that longing feeling here- even down to the way she holds her lips. And don't even get me started on how perfect that dress fits her! 
   To me, she takes me back to a time of war, to a time where women dressed with sophistication and class even in the home while cleaning, to a time where things were more secretive and seductive then in your face and over the top.
   Take a peek. What song plays to you when you look at her?

Garage Girl goes Pin Up

She's a true garage girl. Her and her husband own a great shop in downtown Port Huron.
She’s also the beautiful girl next door- there’s not that awkward moment of feeling like you have to get to know her for ages, I instantly adored her.
And now she’s adding Pin Up to the list.

The studio held a pin up event with an old retro chevy truck- something we haven’t done in 3 years. Well, when you own a shop, your husband is a grease monkey, and there’s a sweet old truck up for grabs- you go for it!

Jackie called and we met. Again- I adored her. Her personality is huge, one that once it’s gone, you kind of feel a little let down for the rest of the day. haha She told me about her life, her family, and how well this tied in with them. She was pretty adamant she didn’t want to go outside of her comfort box or transform in to someone she wasn’t for the sake of the shoot, she wanted to stay true to who she was during it all. I like girls like that.

When it came to the shoot my first reaction is to have girls get in that fierce mode, giving me that powerful serious face that transmits in to confidence and sexiness but I couldn’t do that with Jackie. It’s not that she couldn’t pull it off, because she could, and she did, but.. it didn’t feel right, it didn’t feel like her. She had to be smiling. That was her. THAT was HER confidence and her sexy side, no need to try and pull it out of somewhere else.

The best part of the session was how much we laughed when we did ask her to be serious. It was almost impossible, which is awesome. But we nailed it, and her hubby got a pretty fabulous Christmas gift out of the deal.  Don’t you agree?

The flawless pin up

Pin Up girls. Poster girls. When you think of them you think- the ultimate woman, perfect, adorable, sexy but classy. Flawless.I can picture the posters lined up over the soldier's bed and the girls with their cute expressions and their adorable outfits. Most were hand drawn based off real photos from back in the day. Because they were drawn though, it was easy to be flawless, you just sketch it in!
It’s not every day that a real girl walks in to my studio and is literally flawless, but I think Alyssa just might be.
Photoshop is nowhere near responsible for this beautiful skin you see, and yes these really are photographs. Yes, she has makeup on, but it still doesn’t matter. And the outfits! Look how adorable she is. They just reinstate I’m right. She’s flawless. Ok, so maybe she did have a few little scratches from her new baby kitty we had to get rid of, but that was just bad timing! 
Don’t hate her for it though! You HAVE to see how AMAZING she did when she came to our Retro Truck Pin Up event!
We hooked all the girls up with professional hair and makeup that morning too, so cat eyes, a red lip, and victory rolls were a must- which I LOVE. It’s such a gorgeous look. It’s fun, it’s out of the box, and it forces you to rely on yourself and your personality to be sexy instead of your body.
But… if you have a fabulous body as well, then… aren’t you just lucky. Again- flawless, right?
Take a look!
