Old Hollywood glamour meets pin up with a vintage twist!

Profile Information:

Tell us a little about yourself! (details or get declined): 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.

Oh, I am very much into culture fusion, so that "Night of the Loving Dead" piece is an arabic, Mexican day of dead and Beijing Chinese Opera mask all in one. The model is from Lebanon, so the writing on the mask says "LOVE" in arabic, hence the title of piece.

I was wondering how you created that effect? Is it like a software program you have or is there a website where anyone can alter their photos like that?

Isn't that mask the greatest!?! It's made from a company I model for. www.artwithlatex.com. Each piece is custom made and you can have different colors, sizes, etc. They also made the black necklace in that photo and the colorful sacred heart necklace in the fountain photos! THEY SOOOOOO ROCK! The best part is that you can wear a huge piece of jewelry but it's super light and lays well!

I am still interested in your offer to play with one of my photos; i don't have any preference as to which one (just that it's one of the latest collection). I shot them in a theatre dressing room, but couldn't find an '40s microphone as a prop. Do what with it. Surprise me!

Thanks for the fabulous picture comment-it's very much appreciated! I'm glad it wasn't a movie still though-it took me long enough to remove the very contemporary plastic drain pipes outside of the window from just this one shot...
