Trying My Hand At Pin-up.

[reval8r]

It's strange some of the directions we go in life. After completing the basic course I set out to do child and family portraits. Needless to say, it's turned into everything but family and child portraits. The past year it's been boudoir, model portfolios and figure studies. Now, I'm starting to dabble with some pin-up style shoots. I've done 6 so far and these are a few of the things I've came up with.

WOW Larry, FANTASTIC.
Apart from the shots being fantastic, you have some brilliant ideas for costume and background, and also the pose of the model. The lighting is perfect from my view also.
My favourites are 1,2 & 6, with I think No. 2 being my real favourite.

Hi Larry, great to hear from you. These are very well done. Such great imagination.

Think they are all great, though #2 I like most.

Thanks for the comments guys. It's appreciated. Pin-up is fun and really helps in developing Photoshop skills and probably more for the Photoshop guru than for the photographer.

Man... each of these has their own "special-effect" both visually and genre specific. HOMERUN!
