Yesterday I got together with Bella to shoot some beauty images . I bought this 1950’s swim cap a few years ago and had yet the chance to use it.!! With amazing make-up artist Ainsley Rose Graham an on board it was destine to be a stellar shoot. her vision a sultry smokey eye balanced with a full berry lip … GORGEOUS!! Bella with swim cap on and  the mixture of piecing different vintage clothing I have around the studio pulled this look together!!

So I got my hands on a 100 land series polaroid camera over a year ago at the goodwill and am proud to say it works this baby is from the 60’s with a cool bellows extension

here a couple images I have taken with it

they are not scanned yet… I just toke images of them with my digi 35 mm SLR camera

so the quality will be better when I have them properly scanned

first one is a side image from the shoot I did last weekend for Toxic Vision clothing

Jasmine Glass with hair and make-up… this women has talent and has only been doing make-up for 6 months (blows my mind… can’t see it in this photo but you’ll see what I mean when I post the colour images.

the second was taken of the beautiful Tam at my Toronto shoot last week

what a knock out!!

Toronto you are always so good to me!! I was up there is past Tue April 13th with my Gal Joy Klapko (Hair and make-up artist)

Nikki Jumper (Toronto Music Rock Photographer) was in house , with Rock designer Toxic Vision in styling nothing could go wrong…. bad ass sexy Nikki was in leather , studs, and big hair!!

Samantha with Classic style pin up!! sassy, sweet and seductive, in this image I had my first try at puddle making …well I think I did pretty good!!

Tamara is Classic , with gorgeous curves and A Marylin esq face

Toronto Bettie’s

I am excited to announce Pin up with pets!! Pet lovers this shoot is for you!

you and your baby can star in your very own pin up shoot!!

Includes

Make-up

One wardrobe look

Photo shoot w one pet

4 finished images

$365

hair is an additional $30

if you have more animals that you wish to be in the shoot , it means that the shoot will take longer to coordinate, with that said I will need to charge $30 for each additional pet on set to cover the time

I am going to schedule only 2 shoots per day to make time for each client and their pet/s alone on set

Please make sure that your pet is friendly before booking a shoot

photo shoots with pets are fun but take patience … I was once told children and animals are the two hardest subjects to photograph… it is true but the results are amazing!!

also if you have a friend that your pet is familiar with that can help out on set that would be awesome

I will be sure to post some of the new when I’m back!! SOOOO excited!! but for now here is an images I worked on with Hair and make-up artist Joy Klapko and Model Bliss Star

This girl is such a sweet heart!!  …. first we did clean beauty images incorporating some nipple bling piercings and head shoots , then off to artist Leigh’s house to shoot in his rad games room, featuring all sorts of awesome pin ball machines, someone commented that Bella looks like Betty gone wrong …. I like that

Bella

I had an awesome shoot this weekend with the beautiful and fun  Larissa … so much fun!! we got to go to her adorable house and take some images… she also has two cute little Jack’s that overseen that everything was going well ….. here are some of the images

Larissa

when I decided to take inventory of the wardrobe I have accumulated over the past couple years I had NO idea the undertaking this would be!! I have gotten just over 40 items photographed and that was 2 days worth of work!! and there is so so so much more to be done… But it is going to be worth it and help everyone know what I have! I am also always looking for more vintage pieces and especially in Lg/xLg those seem to be the hardest to come by.. So if you have anything you don’t want anymore or know of anyone that is cleaning closet make sure to get a hold of me! Here is Laura my lovely model/and Co-op student from Fanshawe College photography program  helping me out!!
