Pinup photography with a Spanish twist

Here are some images shot with Wiltshire-based alt-model and burlesque performer, Luna Rocket, styled with the help of hair/makeup artist, Gemma Sheree. Our idea with to add a spanish, flamenco-esque twist to the pinup format inspired a little by the passing of iberian movie siren Sara Montiel, who died on the same day as Margaret […]
