Retro Lovely Special Edition Cover Image ... "What A Deusy!"




It is finally ready to unveil... the cover image for the Celeste Giuliano Photography Special Edition of Reto Lovely Magazine!

This image taken at the Simeon Foundation Automotive Museum features cover model, Lorraine, posing with a 1921 Duesenberg Race Car. This car was one of three cars that entered the Grand Prix at Le Mans in 1921. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to spend an entire day photographing models with historic race cars at the Simeon Foundation this fall and many more images from this shoot will be featured in the Special Edition. A HUGE thank you to Dr. Simeon and his staff for allowing us access for the entire day - it was definitely a highlight of my career!

The magazine is available for pre-order now and is expected to ship the first week of December! Also, stay tuned for details on the Magazine Release Party. We are planning an AMAZING event that you will not want to miss!

Exclusive Behind The Scenes Video from Retro Lovely Magazine Photo Shoot!

I am so happy to announce that I have finally finished shooting content for my Retro Lovely Special Edition. The last shoot took place on location in October and thanks to Robot Mouse, I have a SPECTAULAR one of a kind behind the scenes video for everyone to view. This shoot was based off of my love of old black and white horror movies such as The Uninvited and The Old Dark House which features the beautiful damsel in distress.

The shoot was on location in West Chester, Pa and the wardrobe was provided by the award winning Malena's Vintage Boutique. My gorgoeus model, Sarah, spent the day being "terrorized" by a derranged killer a.k.a my husband Dave.

CLICK HERE TO SEE THE VIDEO!!!!


And don't forget to pre-order your copy of the Celeste Giuliano Photography Special Edition of Retro Lovely to see all the images from this horror shoot. The magazine, featuring 88 pages of all new, unseen work will be available in early December.

My Client Blair Creates Amazing Art!

I adore my clients - it is that simple!
I am so fortunate to meet so many talented and creative women and Blair Barbour is one of them.

Blair, who is a collage artist and videographer, recently posed for her second time as a pinup. She just launched her website BlairBarbour.com and needed new images to help promote herself and her artwork. I was very excited to help her create a perfect and unique look for her website photos.

Since Blair creates the most amazing collages using mainly scissors and paper, we decided to focus one of her sets around these two props as they are important aspects of her artwork and creative process. Blair loved the simplicity of the Vargas style photos so we chose to emulate that for our first set.



For her second set Blair wanted a series of images she could utilize and change on the main page of her website and below are just a few of the many images that Blair is currently using. I loved that she used the striped Victorian parasol I purchased at an auction only a few days prior to her shoot - that was a lucky and timely find!






Blair will be displaying and selling her artwork at the prestigious Rittenhouse Square Fine Art Show this weekend, June 4-June 6. The show runs from 11 am-7pm Friday and Saturday and from 11am-5pm on Sunday. She will be located at Booth 65, right across from the Dorchester so be sure to stop by and check out her one-of-a-kind collages at the art show or on her website.
