A vintage glamor photo shoot will have models looking like the movie stars of yesteryear or 1950s pin-up girls. The photos are contrived rather than natural, with the models making dramatic poses. Contrast is key and the models take the focus of the shot, rather than the setting. Get inspiration from the glamor of the 50s and early 60s and copy hair and makeup to create an authentic look. Using an old school camera will also help to create the grainy look of a vintage picture.

Set up the shot so that the key light shines directly down onto the model so that it looks like she is in the spotlight. The key light should be aligned with the model's nose. This will form the signature butterfly shadow under the nose.
2Place two filler lights on either side shining up on the model's face. They should diffuse dark shadows, but still leave a hint of contrast.
3Position the third filler light just below the camera and shine it up toward the lens. The forth light is positioned above the camera, shining directly onto the model's face. A back filler light shines on the model's head to separate her from the background.
4Buy an outfit from a vintage store or rent one from a costume rental outlet. Pick a vintage outfit that is reminiscent of the glamor of the 1950s and early 1960s. Do an Internet search for glamorous pictures from that era for inspiration. You can also find pin-up girl pictures to copy.
5Apply dramatic make up. The eye shadows are muted, with false eyelashes and dark eyeliner giving the eye the accent that it needs. Cherry red lips painted with matt lipstick and long red nails add to the look.
6Place the model on the set. The set should be simple, with only one or two props from the era. Align her face with the lights. Models must be able to keep very still and hold poses for long periods of time.
7Work on the pose until you are satisfied. Models generally do not look at the camera in glamour shoots. They look off to one side with a mysterious look or an air of longing. Point the chin up to give the jawline an attractive angle.
8Pose the model in a dramatic way. The poses should not look relaxed or natural, but contrived. A hand held up to the face, or lounging on a chaise-lounge are perfect examples of dramatic poses. You are ready to take your picture.
