Pin-up Session Tips

Prepare your outfits carefully. From fully dressed to underwear. Make sure everything goes. For example bring a fifties looking dress, with the lingerie stockings and shoes. We will take pictures of the hole outfit and go from there.

Choose a theme.
  • Fifties pin up or sixties for that matter
  • sailor, military (police or anything uniform) cowgirl
  • sexy secretary (or sexy librarian)
  • playboy bunny
  • singer (like Jessica rabbit?) Sexy long dress
  • house wife (sexy dress, apron) - or nightie 
  • beach (bathing suit, sunglasses, hat)
or anything really. Get inspired by researching pin up photos and my absolute hero : Alberto Vargas. Dust of those slutty Halloween costumes.

Practice your posing. This is the time to let it all out. Go as out there as you can. Always point your toes and keep your hands busy. Examine other pin-up photographs. Look in magazines. how do they put their hands, move their bodies? look at it all.

Plan what you want. In this kind of shoot, it's better to plan ahead as much as possible.

Bring props!
