Finally! I took these photos in July and they are finally up on my blog! I had so much fun doing this shoot and I loved how the photos turned out, but, alas, it still took me a long time to get the photos up.
I love the 1940's fashion, music..well, basically everything about the era! So, I have been planning this shoot in my head for months. I did research about the hair styles, make-up and clothing of the time, and although I titled this a 1940's "themed" shoot, some of our outfits were off a bit, but hey, that's why it is only "themed" and not "exact".
To pull it off I enlisted the help of some super talented make-up artists/hair stylists. Stephanie did most of the hair and donated tons of clothing and accessories owned by her grandmother, who, I must add, was a pretty stylish lady! Alex did all of the make-up and a few hairstyles. You can check out their awesomeness here and
here.
And, I had fellow photographer and friend of mine shoot with me. You can see her fabulous work
here and
here. She is a really talented photographer!
Then, I must give credit to all of our beautiful models! They rocked! Big time!
They were so willing to let me style them in whatever...some of which was really from the 40's and smelled like it! Daring girls!
A lot of work, preparation, and fun...totally worth every second!
These are the outside shoots. We also did indoors shots in different outfits. I will put some of those up soon, or you can see some on my Moda Photography Facebook Page.
