Nashville Glamour Session: Karina

I’ve said it before, glamour can mean a lot of different things to a lot of different people. To me, glamour is a feeling that emanates from the inside and manifests itself in different ways on the outside. Some days, I feel glamorous in my jeans and t-shirt, minimal makeup and other days, I feel like I want to put on a full face of makeup complete with a bold lipstick and a dress.

For Karina’s shoot, we started with the idea of vintage glamour and pin up. But my style is definitely not vintage – I love the crisp, modern quality of magazine style portraits so we had to bring a fresh modern twist to the classic pin up look. Here is what we came up with:

As with any session, we pumped up the energy and got to dancing! Not only does this bring the mood to a higher level, it allows me to incorporate some portraits that have a sense of motion.

I love the combination of the winged eyeliner and bold red lip with the polka dot dress and pearls. Karina did an amazing job bringing fun wardrobe options for her beauty portrait session.

Ending this on a high note, I love the simplicity of the next photo, which really brings all the focus to Karina’s beautiful face. The natural vignette around her gives a halo effect which I love.

Again, there’s nothing more classic than a little black dress, especially in lace. But combining that with Karina’s modern pinup makeup brought the whole look up a notch.

What do you think? Are you a fan of modern pin up makeup? I’d love to hear how you’d want to be styled for your own Glamour Makeover Session.
