Hello everyone here at Pin Up Lifestyle!!

Let me introduce myself. I'm a photographer based in San Antonio, TX. The name of my biz is Time Machine Studios Photography. I specialize in old Hollywood glamour photography, trying to duplicate some of the greats of the 40's and 50's such as my hero, Hurrell of Hollywood's style. Of course, I absolutely ADORE vintage pin up, but I do it a bit differently, as you will see in my photos. I love film noir and the drama it captures. Also, I'm fascinated with the look of true vintage photography from the mid 1800's. I am currently working on a ghost series to replicate some of the photos that were taken during the spiritualism craze. All of this could not be done without post production editing. It takes a lot of research and time to make sure that I am being true to whatever time period I am doing. I've started to dabble in digital painting as well. The skies the limit! So, if you are interested in traveling back in time with your photos, I am booking new shoots often. If you are just too far away from Texas, I am willing to edit your photos via email, just make sure they are the full resolution pix and that you have your photographer's permission!! Anyone who is interested please contact me at tammykoos@aol.com.

    Hello. It's a pleasure to meet you! I grew up in the South side of Milwaukee suburbs. I have family up in Marinette, though.

    I like how you've gone beyond that standard pinup in your work. I see 1920s glamour style which is a nice change of pace. I really enjoy 'Technicolor Dream' because you've put the subject in a proper setting and made very good use of very vibrant color. Stunning!

    Just finished my film festival selections....whew. Man took al weekend.Now I gotta sell 140 tix to break even. I think we can do it. Each show holds 60 peeps...so if I promote this thing right might make some bank. Hows Texas? You know thats one big ass state! Every time I cross the U.S. on the I-10 it blows me away how big Texas really is. I have thought about moving to Austin more than once.

    Thank you so much!! =] That flatters me a lot! Your work is AMAZING!!! I've been trying to set up a 1920's shoot, but I might just do the look on myself, since I've got the camera to do it. Stay tuned for it!!
