Kelly B (and Abby)- South Jersey Pin Up Photography

Posted on June 17, 2010

Kelly booked a shoot with us a few months ago to surprise her boyfriend for his birthday.  Kelly’s guy travels a lot for work and she was looking for a way to keep him feeling connected while he is on the road.   She showed me a fun vintage pin up photo that she wanted to re- create with her dog Abby.   Kelly brought some great outfits, including this adorable striped dress she made especially for her pics!  Shannon rocked out some killer pin up hair and makeup and Kelly and Abby were both a pleasure to work with.  We all had a great time shooting and I hear that her boyfriend loved the pics!   If you have a small doggy that you would like to incorporate into your photo shoot, email me!

Finally!

I have gotten a lot of questions about the best way to handle tan lines or pale pasty skin in preparing for a shoot!  I am happy to say that I  have FINALLY found the BEST spray tan ever!  Ever since I learned about  how horrible tanning beds are for your skin,  I have been experimenting with self tanners trying to find something that would make my pale skin a fabulous shade of bronze.  Most of the time I have been spray tanned or applied tanner myself, I ended up a smelly, streaky, orange mess.  Who wants to deal with that before a photo shoot?!

Soooo… after a rave review from a friend of mine, I knew I had to give it a shot.  I made an appointment with Kathy at Forever Bronze in Cherry Hill.  I had a wonderful experience without streaks or that icky smell, and got a tan that lasted 7 days.  I have been seeing her once a week, now that it’s warm, to keep up my color. (She has a great deal- purchase 4 tans, the 5th is free.)  So if  you are feeling a little on the  pale side and want some color for your shoot, I would definitely think about making an appointment.   24-48 hours before your photo shoot is the perfect time to go.  You don’t need to be super dark, but a nice glow is always great.

If you are still a little freaked out by the idea of being sprayed or standing almost naked in front of a stranger, then Jergens Natrual Glow moisturizer is a great alternative.  You can’t screw it up and it’s inexpensive, just make sure you start applying color 3 days or so before your shoot date.  This stuff needs to build up to give you a nice color, so definitely give it a few days.   Just please, please, please stay out of tanning beds!  If the idea of me yelling at you isn’t scary enough, please read this article.

PS… I have also heard great things about Healthy Tans in Deptford, too!

Jane- South Jersey Boudoir Photography

Posted on June 11, 2010

Jane is one of my favorite clients! I got to do my third shoot in 2 months with her earlier this week. Jane travels all the way from New York, over 2 hours to come and see us and she always brings the most fabulous things for her shoot. After viewing my blog post about the Miss USA photos, she decided that she wanted to recreate one of those looks for her shoot. I love the combination of her dark hair and the light shirt in black and white. There are a ton of photos from this shoot that I can’t wait to share.

Heather- South Jersey Pin Up Photography

Posted on June 7, 2010

Heather emailed me way back in March wanting to treat herself to a pin up themed shoot for her birthday. She told me straight up that she’s a ham and was ready to let out her inner pin up girl. She wasn’t kidding! Working with Heather was so much fun. We did a half day shoot (3 different looks), one of them being a beach bunny. Here’s a sneak peek at one of her images from this afternoon.
How cute is she???

Katie: South Jersey Glamour Photography

Posted on June 2, 2010

Katie came for a shoot a few months ago, looking to give her boyfriend something fabulous for his birthday.  She was a little nervous, but you would never know it by looking at these pics.  She was a natural, you would have thought she had done this a million times.  After discussing our love of David Yurman jewelery, we chose her looks and put together some great outfits.  Katie booked the half day shoot, so we ended up with a lot of variety in her sets which made for a great album. The first look was a really cool pair of flocked jeans with a bustier she borrowed from us and a pair of thigh high black boots.

The second look was a sweet lavender bra and panty set from H&M.  Check out their selection of inexpensive lingerie, proving you don’t need to be extravagant when putting together your looks.  Simple is always beautiful!

Her last look, a simple black dress, was my favorite.  The simplicity of the dress allowed us to go a little wild with the background and we also mixed in the vintage style head piece.  Katie was my first client to rock the hot pink damask background and I think she did an awesome job.  I hear her boyfriend loved the pics!  Thanks Katie, for allowing me to share your photos.
