Beautiful Bridget | Wellington Pin Up Photography


Bridget came to visit after hearing about our studio during the Monster Burlesque show.  She has always been a fan of Burlesque although she is a mild mannered student of stage management at Toi Whakaari during the day she loves to attend all things Burlesque at night.  This interest obviously needed to be reflected in her photoshoot. and she chose a circus like theme with a bit of pin up thrown in for good measure.  Miss La Belle was helping me in the studio at the time and did the styling for this shoot with help from Bridget's stage manager friend Todd who secured the Garden Club for her for the ring portion of the shoot.  Such fun!  I absolutely loved this one.  What do you think?  Where would you go with your shoot if you were designing the perfect shoot for yourself?  What would you wear?  Where would you go?

A La Mode ReVamp Party

The first of October saw our vintage reVamp party rock into life.  It started out with swing dancing by Full Swing then, an official opening and awards ceremony celebrating the National Photography Awards won by Mandi Lynn. Hester Hamilton won the title of the 2011 Cupcake Queen with her huge prize package. Then it was off to some glove peeling burlesque action with the gorgeous Miss La Belle, followed up by a lovely fan dance by Miss La Belle herself.  Beautiful!  Then Claire from the Vanity Case taught everyone how to apply the perfect red lipstick and gave a Victory Roll (vintage hair styling) demonstration.   Good fun was had by all that is for sure.  Thank you so much to everyone who attended.  I don't think we could have fit any more in the doors at a few stages.  It was lovely and we are so lucky to have you guys as fans of our little studio.  Take care and we will see you soon!
