Do you only
photograph models?
No way! Most of my clients are everyday women. I love the makeover process of turning a modern gal into a gorgeous pinup and seeing their face when they see how amazing they look. EVERY woman should do a pinup session! Its a great way to boost your self esteem, pamper yourself for a day and create a wonderful memory!
I give complete instruction on posing like a pinup. No experience required! Please don’t be nervous about not knowing how to pose! I guide you the whole way through, I help you with outfit selection, styling your shoot,and help you pick a theme just right for you!
Do you provide wardrobe?
I have a beautiful selection of themed costumes, modern and vintage lingerie, corselettes, girdles and swimsuits available in sizes Small- Xtra Large and a limited selection of size 2XL.

There are areas of my figure I want to hide, is this possible?
Yes, while posing pinup we can show only as much or as little as you are comfortable showing..I can pose you in ways to accentuate your figure and minimize your trouble areas. I also retouch my photos to make you look pinup perfect! Please let me know during our consultation about any areas that make you self conscious and I can keep that in mind.
Can I choose my own themes for the session?
Yes, I want you to have a unique theme with your interest or hobbies included.
Im Nervous May I bring a friend to my photoshoot?
Yes, but please only bring 1 friend that you feel extremely comfortable around. We are going to be doing a lot of posing and facial expressions and I want you to be comfortable! I ask that you please leave children at home. This is your day to relax and get pampered!
How should I prepare for my shoot?
After booking your session with Girlie Show Photography I will email you a prep-sheet, so you arrive prepped and ready for hair and makeup! Please arrive with day old product free straight hair. If your hair is extremely curly we ask that you straighten it as much as possible, as the hair stylist will not have the time required to straighten your hair. Please bring a robe, flip flops or slippers, a nude strapless bra and a nude thong panty to wear under my wardrobe.
I suggest google searching some pinup models (Bernie Dexter is amazing!) to get a better understanding of posing and the types of faces and personality in pinup modeling. Its not a bad idea to practice your smiles and that classic pinup “ooh face”! Pinup posing and modeling can be so much fun! your photos will reflect how much personality you put into them! get ready to do some fun poses and cute faces! I will be there with you every step of the way!
