Full figured pinups?

[Bunny Levinson]

I'm a big gal and a pinup fan. There's alot of slim girls and a lot of "curvy" girls in the scene. But I sure wish there were more plus sized/full figured girls doing it, because I love seeing pinups with my build. Plus, full figured gals look great in corsets,etc.

 

 Now, I've found a few BBW's on this very site, but are there more plus sized pinups out there? Is this a bigger deal than I know about?

John, I don't do photos myself.  But I certainly could point you the in direction of gals who'd be great features/interviews. :)

Okay, this discussion has derailed from it's topic. We're looking for plus size ladies and rejoicing in Plus Size models/ladies. So if you have a link to a plus size model's site, or you happen to be one yourself, post it here. We're not pumping photo shoots, or talking about clothing.

Want to talk about plus size clothing? There's a thread for that. http://www.pinuplifestyle.com/forum/topics/best-plussize-sites

Please refrain from suggesting that most Pin Up Photogs are GWC's. This is a Pin Up site, after all.

Bunny: I can always use a push in the right direction :)

Ive seen a lot on clothing sites. Especially the British ones.  Being full figured is wonderful.  Better too be really curvy than too thin, and by the way you are beautiful and don't let anyone make you think otherwise.

I agree, there aren't enough BBP's. and too many haters, that keep beautiful women from doing what they love...

For any big beautiful Aussie pinups out there - entries are now open for the Next Miss Pinup Australia. Miss VaVa Voom is for girls over an Aussie 14.

It's a great competition, Miss Pixie the lady in charge is a wonderful suport, and you get amazing opportunities from the exposure of being a contestant.

I cannot recomend it enough

hmm, that doesn't have to be true perse..

 

Everyone has to start somewhere, 10 years ago when I started modeling I shot with amateur photographers or 'GWC's as you like to call them..and I do believe that everything is a valuable learning experience..I am grateful that someone liked my look enough to ask me to do a shoot and pay me for my time especially since I had little experience at the time..It allowed me to grow as a model and be the person I am today, with the quality of work I currently possess..

I really don't understand this discussion.

 

The overwhelming majority of "pin-up" photos are shot by GWC's, or are TF's or the model pays.

 

So the only reason there aren't more plus size "pin-up" photos is because plus size women either don't post or don't get their picts taken.

 

PS - My usual rate for portfolio work is $1,000 a day.  But if any of you ladies wish to, I shoot your port for $600.

I'm proud to be a "plus size" woman and model. 
I only recently started modeling because of slight size discrimination.
I am only a size 14 but I have the added problem of being 6' tall in bare feet. And because of this several photographers have told me that they will not work with me.
Some admitted to being uncomfortable shooting someone 6'5" in heels. It sucks, but I've come to realize that I am proud as hell to be who I am. I have curves and it doesn't take someone like Kardashian to make me appreciate them.

To all you curvy ladies, keeping on rocking, lovelies! You're beautiful not matter what!!
