Classic Pin-up Project (poses)
I'm working on a project that will have a classic pin-up appeal and I am looking for an all-hands-on-deck collection of suggestions. I need to locate a large collection of pin-up images for pose selection. I also need some suggestions/input on outfit selections. I have several models lined up that will absolutely kill in this genre and a great location. Any props, poses, outfit ideas, and general ideas on the subjust are more than welcome. Anyone know of any books or magazines that specialize in this particular style/genre that I might be able to reference? Many Thanks. -Steve www.simonlive.net Sep 06 06 09:29 pm Link Sep 06 06 10:12 pm Link It's obvious that the NET, is the best place to get ideas! (Just type in "PIN-UP Photography") and away you go. As for here on MM, check these 3 "MASTERS"..... MM # 8781 MM # 2202 MM # 116 Then, I look at their FRIENDS, their TAGS, Etc. It takes you about as DEEP as you ever wanted to go. Study the look, the clothes, the props, the cars, the hair doo's, etc. Personal Note:....."WinkyTiki" has the look I'm hoping for...Pin-up with a SPLASH of Hawaiiana! Good luck with your project and ALOHA Sep 06 06 10:15 pm Link warrenlee wrote: These are great. This is is the sort of inspiration I am looking for. I love the hairstyle btw. Keep em coming.
