PINUP WORKSHOP DETAILS AND PREPARATION:

The Bombshell Betty Pinup Workshop and Photoshoot you signed up for is coming right up! Here is all the info you should need to be well prepared, and feel free to ask me any additional questions you might have. I have also posted a FAQ list at the bottom of this page on my website: www.bombshellbetty.net/pinup.html

How to dress for the Pinup Posing lesson:

For the first part of the workshop, wear comfortable, form fitting clothes that you can move in easily. You will want to be able to see how the silhouette of your body changes when you adopt different postures and poses, so it is essential that you can see your body! Feel free to bring something body conscious to change into when you get here. I also recommend wearing shoes like the ones you think you'd like to wear for the shoot. If you're going to wear heels for the shoot, it helps to practice posing in heels. And remember that dressing up is fun! Feel free to wear something that makes you feel sexy!

Keep in mind that tight bras, tight socks, tight waistbands, etc. can leave imprints on your skin that will not be flattering in the pictures. If you have a robe or house coat to wear during styling and in between sets, that may be comfortable for you and can minimize these marks.

Things to bring to the shoot:

- Two full outfits, including all jewelery and accessories. Your "outfits" can be anything you want: lingerie ensembles, costumes, evening wear, vintage pinup dresses, etc. Keep in mind that layering and props are great ways to get multiple looks out of one outfit (some people have gotten as many as 6 "looks" out of their two outfits!) and it's better to bring more than you think you'll use than wish you'd brought things you left at home!
- Bring fun props if you've got them! I have fans, boas, parasols, etc. which you can use, and feel free to bring more so that everyone will have lots of options.
- Your makeup! A good foundation that matches your skin tone, a translucent powder and black mascara are essential. Other than that, bring whatever you've got. Don't bother to buy a bunch of stuff that you won't use... I have tons to share!
- Hair supplies! If you have them, bring hot rollers, a curling iron, bobby pins...
- Bring styling photos (hair and makeup) for looks you would like to try during the shoot. Bringing pictures will help us get the looks you want!
- Bring music CDs. There's nothing like your favorite music to get you comfortable and in the mood in front of the camera.
- Bring snacks or a bagged lunch. You'll definitely want to keep your energy up during the shoot!

That's about it for preparation except for grooming. Hair should be clean and dry (it won't take a curl well if it's damp at all), all necessary shaving should be done, finger and toe nails should be groomed.

Betty has asked that everyone bring a "potluck" dish for Sunday so we can work/eat at the same time!
