A Vintage French Nude Postcard Look

In the 1920's and 1930's relatively chaste nude images like these were sold in the black market -- they were highly illegal, considered pornographic. However many of them had artistic merit, involving classic poses and elaborate sets.

This is my homage.

Ivy in the 70's. Funky tops, hot pants and a record album backdrop complete the look.

Jessica nude portrait. Eye placement again was key, make sure the irises are in full view. Turning her head to face the light gives her an angelic glow.

India silhouette. Just place the model in front of a large softbox. Shapes matter. The closer the model is to the softbox, the more wrap-around light (and visa-versa).

Dakota in gold pearls. A blue backlight adds a touch of mystery, and provides separation for Dakota's dark hair.

Portrait of Meghan. Tip: have the eyes come back a bit to the camera on a profile shot, to avoid too much sclera (white) -- avoid zombie eyes.

Model @yourlatinabestie. The key to this photo is lots of lines and shapes: triangle cutouts from arms, curve of the back, etc.. Love using vintage (a favorite of my wife's too).

Low-key bodyscape. Model: Makayla. Very simple image to create, place a strip box behind and just out of camera, and have the model move to find the right composition. An all-time favorite.

Leola. Overhead lighting and high contrast create a dramatic portrait.

A touch of fantasy with Cali. A few simple props moves classical portraiture into a fantasy realm.

Amber Flowers in a classic Pin-up pose. My wife and I love finding vintage props like this 1960's electronic organ at flea markets, perfect for great poses.

Nude with RGB lights. Model: yourlatinabestie. It is possible to use three colored lights (red, green, blue) by keeping them directional and relatively focused.

Enola in a glamorous 1950's blue silk dress. The swirly backdrop shadows are made with a gobo to invoke a Hollywood-like set.

Witch or scientist? Nicole with calipers. Tip: complimentary colors for drama, fill is teal with an orange sidelight. A fog machine adds a mysterious backdrop.

Tip: who cares if the background is visible, it adds to the playfulness of a pinup, like this one of Adelina. Props and swimsuit are authentic 60's pieces.

Consider following me, I'll offer an explanation with images, and often follow you back!

This lighting on Alena used a giant softbox behind with colored blue and red lights. The softbox blows out to white, but the color spills onto the model.
