More beautiful images from our clients at the Champaign Girl photoshoot! This gal is stunning and a natural in front of the camera! Thank you to Gilli Kieffer for these amazing images for Warbird Pinup Girls. Hair and makeup by Amity Dawn at Vanity Vixen !

A meaningful way to memorialize Memorial Day is to honor the fallen by visiting a veterans cemetery or war memorial, attending a local ceremony, or volunteering to support veterans and military families. You can also fly the flag at half-staff until noon, participate in the National Moment of Remembrance, or donate to military charities. We hope that you enjoy the incredibly meaningful work being done by Warbirds Pin-up Girls. You will never understand how precious every opportunity to work with these planes has been to Christian, Gilli and I and everyone else who has invested time into these collaborations of artists, including the lovely models. It has been a passion for us all and we hope you love the work as much as we do.

Resale shops, like mine would appreciate your business. I'll be restocking and having a bug event soon. How do y'all feel about a shoe sale? I've got boots and shoes, men's and women's, that I'm going to be bringing into the boutique.

This photoshoot with Elyssa was a last minute improv. The air museum in Saginaw offered to pull out their L-2 for us and I couldn’t resist sneaking in one more shot since I am working on a book about WWII trainers.
