Photoshooting with Tate Millinery Part 1

Hello everyone,

last weekend I took a superlong drinve (20 minutes;-) to a neighbour town and shot with lovely Karen from Tate Millinery and her just as lovely husband Andrea! We photographed around 30 hats (estimated number - I lost count because it were SO MANY beautifull hats!) within 3 hours (plus and hour for hair and make up and maybe another one for cupcakes).

So consider this part 1 of at least 4-5 parts full of awesome hats! Keep your eyes on the Online Shop as well and keep in mind: Most of those hats are customizable! So if you think by yourself "Oh, I love this hat, but it wouldn´t go with the clothes I have" - send a message to Tate Millinery to explore the options available! For your convenience I added the links straight to the hat below the picture.

















 
 

Did I promse too much? Those hats are truely awesome with great details and made by hand! Keep your eyes peeled for more!

Last Shooting with my old hair....

 Hello everyone,

I was completely convinced that I posted this lovely photos by Wu.nderland Photography MONTHS ago, however when I went to check I noticed that, well, I HADN´T. It must be my old age, that´s for sure! However it´s also my last photos with red hair and blonde streak, now it is red and black streaks all the way :-D

Enjoy my blonde streak for the last time ;-)

First photos from my Shooting for "Rock Rooms" and "fürs Herz"

Hello everyone!

Iam not shooting a lot presently, especially considering my blog is called "The Pin up diaries". It was just way too warm the past weeks and I focused more on spending time with my better half than planning shoots :-) So I was very happy when beeing asked to do a shooting for Rock Rooms and für´s herz. So we spent a day in a nice backyard and had a lot of fun shooting. And here are some of the first results :-)

There is an interview with me (in German) on the official Rock Rooms Website as well :-)
