Summer is here, so what better way to celebrate then with a Manitoba Vintage Beach Babe shoot. It's actually two separate sets with the same lovely doll, but different vintage style bathing suits. "Come inside" to my Winnipeg Studio, and see the Summer Magic we created for this HOT PINUP SESSION.
This first session was done in my studio and I provided a New, but Vintage Style Bikini Bathing Suit for the lovely Mercede.
It fit her perfectly and I loved the Retro colouring.
I had a pre-vision that this was going to be a Composite Style (where I bring in another background later with Photoshop).
I wanted it to be almost like a Pinup Poster or Postcard of yesteryear, so I wasn't looking to make it seem 100% realistic.
I brought out my usually assortment of Vintage Props that I felt would work well with this Manitoba Vintage Beach Babe set.
My authentic retro red radio; umbrella; beachball; sunglasses and more were all waiting to be "played with".
I have one of the Largest Vintage Prop Inventories of any studio in Canada - so If you are looking for authentic props in your Client Session - you are at the right studio.
This set was PUBLISHED in a very well known Pinup Magazine - namely Retro Lovely Magazine.
Mercede had a 4 page layout in this publication that has about 2 million followers on FB alone.
This can be YOUR REALITY too!. Book a Pinup Session with me and I can Guarantee you a publishing.
This was the Second set for our Manitoba Vintage Beach Babe session.
This bathing suit was also provided by my studio and I think it's my all time favourite. The Colour and Style are just eye-dazzling.
You can purchase your own on Amazon.ca as it was quite inexpensive. Total amount spent of $29.99 (Canadian).
More retro props were added to this set including that authentic Twin Reflex camera.
A little bit of trivia - I actually have one of these types of cameras that actually works and i still take photos with it.
I added a different background, this time using a more realistic setting.
This second set of the Manitoba Vintage Beach Babe session was PUBLISHED in TWO different Pinup Magazines.
The first one is based in the United Kingdom and is called BOMBSHELL MAGAZINE.
Only very high-end images are only accepted here. Mercede had a multi-page layout again.
Each Pinup Magazine has their own specific requirements and standards.
The Second Magazine that this set was published in, was a U.S. based magazine - namely PINUP KULTURE.
I should mention that each magazine had separate images.
I sent half to one magazine and the rest to the other publication.
I'm concluding this posting with my Favourite Image from both sessions.
This pose, expression, and composition was just Pinup Perfect.
Pinups are FOR EVERYONE. If you are interested in a Beach Babe session - contact me for booking a date.
We also do a million other themes.
