Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where do you shoot at? I shoot out of my home studio and on location.
2. What does the cost of your packages cover? Set changes, hours of editing,ink, paper, cds, hair & makeup, shooting charge, modeling instruction.
3. Do you provide outfits? No I do not, on ocassion I have a few back ups I use if the girls didn't bring anything that was great for the photographs. I prefer my girls to all look different and feel like they stand out and they aren't cookie cutters!!!
4. Do you have props for the pinup shoots? I do have some, but I keep it minimal, you are more then welcome to bring some if you like. I like to focus more on my girls!
5. Where are you located? I am located in Huntington Beach. I will give you my address once the shoot is booked and the deposit is made. I do not want a bunch of creepy guys knowing where I live or work!
6. What do I do before my appointment that day? If you are getting a Hair & Makeup package please come with unwashed hair it styles better and a clean face. You can bring up to 10 outfits/shoes/accessories with you but we will only shoot in the number of outfits that comes with your package.
7. What form of payment do you accept? I take cash, money orders and paypal. Credit card payment can be made through paypal. It is a secure website.
8. Why do we have to pay for a deposit for our shoots and how much is it? I require a non refundable deposit because I am holding your date and time specifically for you and if you were to not show up then it will cover the cost of losing a possible appointment. Also when you I book my hair/MU girls you are taking them out of their normal schedule also and I have to pay for their time and travel. My deposit is 30% of the package price payable through paypal or money order, it is required to be paid within 5 days or I will release your date back for someone else. You are allowed to reschedule only once for free after that it will be a $50 fee. I understand things come up but please let me know ahead of time if possible!!!
9. What if I have never modeled before? I instruct you the whole way through on how to pose, if you have no experience.
10. What is the difference between Glamour & Pinup? Pinup photography is recreating photography from the 40's and 50's and glamour is more along the lines of boudoir and modern pinup such as maxim, playboy and beauty shots.
11. Do you have references or feedback from previous clients? I have over 40 references I can provide for you to look over and also repeat clients that come to me every few months that would be happy to talk to you.
12. Do you give out unedited pictures. No i do not, I only give out edit pictures on cd.

If you are a make-up artist and want to ask me questions ...
Make-Up Artist Questions
I get so many emails reguarding being a make-up artist and I have simple answers...
First there is no easy way into becoming a successful make-up artist.
Nothing is easy about this industry at all
I never went to school nor would I go to school, you either born with it, or you learn it
Practice, Practice, Practice is the best advice I can tell anyone and study products and ingredients
I can't tell you what is best for you to do to make this your career, all I can do is tell you what I have done and gone threw.
Be prepared to bust your ass do lots of free work, get screwed over more times than you can count.... but still keep going. It is not going to be easy or fun.... so be prepared.
I use all kinds of products, find the best ones that work for you... it will come with time and practice.
Have you ever dreamed of being photographed & transformed into your favorite vintage pin up or a sultry femme fatale? Perhaps you have your own vision or modern take on a classic pin up? Whatever your dream may be we can make it happen.
Please join Micheline Pitt and Holly West in "SinCity" for a traditional pin-up, retro styled photo session tailored just for you!

I am having to move out in the next 2 months. I have an amazing 2 bedroom apt in Sherman Oaks on the NICEST street in the town, so close to the 101 and the 405. It comes with the most AMAZING roomie EVER! My BF Erin. I adore her, she doesn't smoke, no drugs and rarely drinks. She loves horror movies, music, and Iron Maiden. No pets. She has lots of tattoos like me, and is the sweetest person in the world.
My apt, is in a small complex, that has that 1950's 60's feel, laundry on site, pool partio and private parking.
Rent is around $675.00
You can sublet until the lease is up in Feb. or take over my lease which ever you would prefer to do.
Person must be artistic, kind, warm, and funny :)... and being a nerd wouldn't hurt!
You must also be okay with watching bad movies like Showgirls and Revenge of the Nerds, and Superbad :)
I have been wanting to post this blog for awhile now.
People email me left and right asking me to do make-up and hair for them. I always try to work with people's budgets but I have a minimum pay scale that I will accept.
You get what you pay for. Work of the highest caliber is what you get when I work with you. I will work with you to design exactly what you need but my rates will vary according to the intricacy of my labor.
There is a big difference between going to a make-up counter and buying $40.00 worth of make-up and having someone personally come to you and make you up.
Experience, knowledge, and skill, as well as using the best possible products money can buy, are my norm. I work with the highest products because I believe in the brand, not because I work for a make up line.
I am going to be posting before and after photo's of several of my clients and customers and un-retouched photos. I want you to see what your money gets you.
There is a distinct difference between what you recieve at any make up counter, and what you recieve from a professional with my experience in t.v., film, and print.
