🎄 Get Holiday-Ready: How to Prep for Your Holiday Pin-Up Shoot!

The holidays are sparkling just around the corner — and at Gem City Pin Up Photography, we’re already stringing the lights, fluffing the garland, and warming up the cocoa (with a little sass on the side). Whether you’re new to the pin-up scene or a seasoned cheesecake queen, here’s how to sleigh your upcoming holiday session like the total bombshell you are.

💃 Step 1: Book Early!

Our holiday calendar fills faster than Santa’s cookie plate, and we always sell out before December hits. Between editing, printing, and gifting deadlines, booking early guarantees your photos are ready to wow your loved ones on time. Trust us — your future self (and your mailbox) will thank you.

So, if you’ve been thinking about that Holiday Cheesecake Session, stop thinking and start booking. Time’s ticking, doll — and those peppermint props don’t pose themselves!

👗 Step 2: Wardrobe That Sleighs

Holiday pin-up is all about cozy meets classic glam. Think:

• 🎁 Red & Green with a Twist: Wiggle dresses, high-waisted shorts, candy cane stripes, or velvet halters.

• ❄️ Textures that Pop: Satin, lace, sequins — anything that catches light and flatters curves.

• 🧦 The Little Details: Seamed stockings, vintage heels, Santa hats, or fuzzy mittens make for festive finishing touches.

Don’t forget — our studio wardrobe is always available for r last-minute styling magic!

💋 Step 3: Easy-Peasy Hair & Makeup Tips

Pin-up beauty doesn’t have to be stressful — you’re here to shine, not sweat.

• Hair: Use a day-old curl set or foam rollers overnight for soft, vintage waves. A little teasing at the crown adds that oomph every pin-up loves.

• Makeup: Classic red lips, winged eyeliner, and rosy cheeks never fail. Keep blotting papers or powder handy for touch-ups — warm lights can make even Frosty blush.

🎅 Step 4: Relax & Channel Your Inner Cheesecake

Remember — this is your moment to shine. Have fun with it! The more you giggle and play, the better your images will turn out. Bring your favorite holiday playlist, sip on a little cocoa (or something stronger, we won’t tell), and let the magic unfold.
