Pinup Girl Class

Hello again!

I bet you are wondering, "Who in the heck is this chick?" It's me-after my pinup class with Go-Go Amy and photoshoot with Boudoir Louisville!

As most of you know, I have a deep love of pinup & rockabilly culture. I've been a fan of Go-Go Amy and the Pretty Things Peepshow for a few years now, and was thrilled to see she'd be teaching a pinup class in Louisville, KY. The class took place the same weekend as Beatersville car show, was held at the fabulous Boudoir Louisville studio, and even included a photo session after the class!

Aron and I drove up to Louisville in the morning, and he dropped me off at the studio while he went and checked out local comic shops. We spent the first few hours of the class learning about the history of pinup, trying out makeup techniques, and having our hair done.

After our makeup and hair was complete, we dressed in our best pinup gear, and had a photoshoot with Ryan from Boudoir Louisville. Ryan and his assistant were awesome! I was nervous before the shoot, but they put me completely at ease, and I actually had fun! Here are a few photos from the shoot:

I wore my Heidi dress from Pinup Girl Clothing.

Stay tuned for more good times in Louisville :)
