Roses and the historic Tower Theatre in Retro Lovely 229

Last month, Marilee Caruso and I took some Summery outdoor pinup images in the garden in front of Sacramento’s historic Tower Theatre. They turned out just as I’d hoped, and appear in Retro Lovely Number 229! One of the covers for this issue features Suzi Q in a great jukebox-themed pinup set also photographed by Marilee!

Marilee did the fabulous 1940s-inspired makeup and hair, and I’m wearing Vixen by Micheline Pitt (her 1950s Swing Sundress in red vintage roses print – it comes with the scarf!). The bat sunglasses are also by Micheline Pitt, from her La Femme en Noir line. The shoes are by Remix (I think they’re the Veronica style, but I’ve had them for at least 8 years at this point so I can’t be sure).

We were going for mid-century old Hollywood glamour, and this locale provides that vibe.

Vote for Kali/Catherine Morland in the “Face of Horror” contest for Rue Morgue Mag…

I entered the “Face of Horror” photo contest on a whim. It’s a partial charity fundraiser with the prize being a horror-themed photoshoot with Kane “Jason” Hodder, to be published in Rue Morgue magazine.

You can vote for me one a day for free. Will you help me by doing that and spreading the word? It’s unlikely I’ll win but I like the idea. Voting starts at 10am PDT today, 9/5/2023 and continues for ten days (first round). If I advance, there will be more (ETA: I made top six in my group of over 100 entrants over several rounds, but did not advance to top five. Thanks to all who supported me!). All you need is a Facebook account; you do NOT need to pay to vote.

Vote for me as the "Face of Horror"

The Brides of Dracula suck the life out of Retro Lovely’s Halloween in April special edition!

I love the 1992 Dracula adaptation with Winona Ryder and Gary Oldman. While watching the film in a Carson City theater auditorium last year (Fathom Events hosted a set of 30th anniversary showings back in October), I was struck by the idea of doing a pinup shoot featuring the count’s three hot vampire brides. Fast-forward to the end of April, and my dream was not only reality, it’s on the cover of Retro Lovely‘s “Halloween in April” special edition, Volume 1!

My friends Miss Melody Noir and Lena Von Noir kindly agreed to be my sister brides for the shoot, and Marilee Caruso – my favorite photographer! – signed on to do makeup, hair, and (of course) take the pictures.
