I'm about to shoot my first real pinup today. Any suggestions?

**munki** · 12-09-2008, 12:33 PM

I know you will have your lights handled... so makeup, hair, and props...

Getting the right mix of those 3 can make or break a pin up.

**RevengeBucks_Monica** · 12-09-2008, 12:50 PM

Remember that pinups weren't about nudity but were more about the tease. If you look up pinups online and look at a lot of vintage cheesecake you'll see the classic poses.

**RedShoe** · 12-09-2008, 01:05 PM

yeah, I don't plan on shooting her to nude (at first). I want them to be really sexy.

I'll look up the cheesecake pics. Trust me this girl has eaten her fair share of cheesecake if you know what I mean.

**qxm** · 12-09-2008, 01:10 PM

... recommendation >>> take me with u .. I wanna see this girl

**stickyfingerz** · 12-09-2008, 01:12 PM

Nice, She's nice and thick. I like that. I like it alot. Unfortunately I won't have the luxury of shooting with a solid BG, but I do like that look.

**C-Luv** · 12-09-2008, 01:28 PM

Love this thread!!!

**alexchechs** · 12-09-2008, 01:33 PM

Look up some Vargas girl images for inspiration on poses...

What kind of background will you be using?

well, I just got back from the shoot. My first pinup style ever. I'd say it was more film noir than pinup, but that's what the director wanted.

Gimmie a few momentos, and I'll post a few.

Any suggestions? Tips? Advice? (and for the foreigners "advices")

**tranza** · 12-10-2008, 05:21 AM

Nice...waiting for more pics!!

please elaborate.

If by light caliber you mean light meter. I have one. But define "mess" do you mean because of all the harsh shadows and the stylized lighting of the black and white image? Did you miss the part where I said he wanted more of a film noir look? Or were you referring to a different mess.

I don't mind if you think it's shit. Just tell me WHY it's shit.

When I think modern-day pinup girl, I think Dita Von Tesse.

Great inspiration there ;)

**JP-pornshooter** · 12-10-2008, 09:57 AM

always fun to experiment..

btw, i want my chinese screen back lol...

**LexiLexxx** · 12-10-2008, 10:33 AM

Very Nice thread, this got me to checking out the vintage/pin-up style make-up and hair.

I'm excited, I plan to shoot my girlfriend at the end of the month, after I make her over, Pin-up style.
I also think, what can make or break the "pin-up look" is what prop's are being used.
Shabby chic, vintage, and antique's prop's really seal the deal.

Having the right style of lingerie, and a damn good make-up artist/hair stylist.

Lovely pics. reminds me of my Grandma. Dark hair and red lips :-)

**Deej** · 12-10-2008, 10:35 AM

only suggestion is rock out with your cock out

You know what the fuck youre doing shoe

**stickyfingerz** · 12-10-2008, 10:36 AM

Btw I did all Dixies makeup, and hair, and chose her outfit, picked background, etc.

I don't care much for the first shot, but the other two rock.

I love pinup stuff. I think it is 1,000 times sexier than most stuff we call porn.

Its not gay if you save 90 to 130.00 per shoot just for a makeup person, and another 90 to 130 for someone to do their hair. lol And half the time I do her nails too.

I did autobody and auto detailing for years, so I have the steady hands to do that shit already. Why not ya know? lol Plus I have a better eye for fashion than most girls do ( ok thats a little gay, but I know what guys like )

I don't do makeup anymore though. Now I just show up, shoot the pics, occasionally shoot video, and leave.

**Deej** · 12-10-2008, 01:09 PM

Fuckin Paul Mitchells and Max Factors up in here

**Violetta** · 12-10-2008, 01:30 PM
