Wheee! Last Saturday I took part in my first ever proper photo shoot.
The wonderful Ruby Demuir, photographer to the Stars, is completing a series of photos as tributes to the Stars of the Silver Screen. You can see Barbarella, Raquel Welch in One Million Years BC and Christine Keeler on her Facebook page.
I, however, got to be Jane Russell in The Outlaw
Jane Russell is significantly more moody than me, but still!
I also got, unintentionally as it happens, to be Loretta Young! This part of the shoot was intended to be for a blouse for Able Grable. Though I’m still waiting for the rest of the photos to be processed before you can get a proper look!
And finally I spent some time prancing around with a beach ball in a 1950s Swimsuit!
It was hard work, but really great fun and it’s so exciting to see how amazing the shots look once the magic has been performed!
Miss DeMuir does a lot of her work in post processing. As you can probably guess these were all shot on green screen and the exciting location backgrounds and vintage effects were added afterwards. Much as I’d have loved to head off to such exotic locations Norwich is a little short on them!
Miss DeMuir currently running a competition to win a shoot with her, so head on over to her blog and check it out!

as my alter-ego said over at Facebook WOW you look absolutely stunning! I really like the cowgirl ones 🙂
Seriously, these are some great pictures xxx
Lovely photos. I think you are prettier than Jane Russel but I suppose I am biased!!! xx
Because everyone says I look like you? xx
LOL, Gemma’s Mum, she IS prettier than Jane Russell. But then Jane Russell wasn’t really pretty, exactly. We did try for the moody Russell pout but swiftly came to the conclusion that G’s too good-humoured – and that’s never a bad thing! 😉 x
you look fabulous hon! Really truly fabulous!
WOW! Superb – LOVE the outlaw ones, tres foxy!
Fantastic photos – I love how they look so authentic, in real pin-up style!
You look absolutely stunning. I love all of them but you certainly are a dead ringer for Jane Russell in terms of looking beautiful and sexy. What an amazing photographer. If I’m every back in the UK long enough to go and see her then I most certainly will. I’ll be enjoying her blog from now in the meantime.
Is this the start of a pin up model career? I certainly think it ought to be.

You look amazing. I love the retro inspired looks and think you really nailed it. I love doing shoots myself but it makes you realise that modelling is actually hard work.
I say Ms Chick!! I have done something like this and will be doing it again soon, people don’t realise how used ir is to get into some of the positions do they?? You look amazing 🙂 xx
Wow wow wow wow wow. Serious pin up girl material! I absolutely love the second shot, you look so natural behind the camera.
Well done missus. 🙂
Ooh, you must have felt so sexy on this shoot. A good photographer can really help you relax and bring out your best side. I love that retro bathing suit.
Gorgeous! There’s just no other word for you 🙂
You look lovely! These shots are gorgeous and very pin-uppy. Bravo!

You look fab! xx
