Pinup Girl Clothing's Supreme Overlord and in-house photographer has just opened an awesome new photography studio, which will also be available for rental on a day and half-day basis starting October 15th!
This studio was created as a result of Laura's frustration in trying to find decent shooting spaces that:
1) Worked really well for retro and vintage themed shoots
2) Didn't cost an arm and a leg
While we still pride ourselves in shooting at and promoting local retro and vintage themed locations, it became clear that not having a dedicated shooting space was hampering PUG's ability to get our stock photographed and added to the site quickly. Now, we've got a space to do everything from quick tabletop shoots to full catalog projects!
And, this space will be offered as a rental on any days it isn't booked by PUG.
