1950's B-Grade Movie Posters

Okay, I admit it, I have a pretty fun job.
Shopping for costumes, making costumes, playing dress-ups, baking cupcakes for high tea, serving tea out of beautiful tea sets, gossiping and giggling with clients and the Sherbet Birdie team, hair and makeup, bows, bubbles yada-yada-yada.
It's all a LOT of fun.
Then, just when you think my job's the funnest and how could it possibly be funner two clients walk through the doors and ask to do a 1950's b-grade movie poster inspired photoshoot.

I'm in heaven I thought.

I have only laughed that hard in another shoot and that was when we did the pillow fight shoot.
This was truly the raddest (yes folks, I said raddest, but it paints a good picture don't you think?).

Roz and Adrian and I spent some time sourcing references for our posters and when we had a plan of attack we forged forward and had a spectacular day. The shoot was a hoot and we were all in stitches for most of it. Melodramatic poses bring out the comedian in all of us I've learnt.

Below are two of the three posters we created, the third is for Roz's and Adrians eyes only. Sorry folks ,)
