The pin up event was a success. What a relief. Whew. I was so nervous when my hair and make up person backed out 3 weeks before the event but thank goodness I found another amazing style team just in time. Lianna Moore of N V US Looks in Castro Valley did an amazing job getting all the girls camera ready in a half hour. Arianna Tavares my make up artist trained by Mac pulled off that classic pin up look flawlessly. You can find her at http://ariannamariemakeup.weebly.com/index.html. Lianna who is a drag queen at heart contributed some really awesome props, that totally took the girls back in time. I wanted the experience to really be pampering and fun. I gave each girl a glass of champagne to sip as they were getting dolled up. There was classic 40's music in the background to really set the tone. I had a lot of fun working with my clients and figuring out the right posing that would be true to the genre and flattering to each individual girl. Here are some of my favorites.
Just to show the extent of the make overs included for this event, here are some before and after shots. One is before make up and hair and the other is before make up.
Also in addition to the make overs the girls get a completely photoshopped 8x10 of their favorite pose! Here is an example of picture before and after editing
I hope to have another one at the end of the month. Hope to see you there!!
