Review from Evilyn T.
First off, I am not a model. I have an average body type, a little disproportionate, a few war wounds, but for my height and age a healthy body. I made an appointment to do a shoot with Shimona (who runs Pinup Perfection) on a sunny Sunday afternoon. I drove to White Rock with a bag full of costumes and a bouffant filled with excitement.
Shimona was a doll herself, with her cute blonde pin-up hairstyle and dazzling smile, she was super friendly and made me feel totally at ease when I did the shoot. Not everyone can make you feel relaxed when you're just in your skivvies. She was full of creative ideas and different positions for me to try out. Believe me, some of those positions are more difficult to hold than you think! It was like doing yoga in thigh highs! Keep your legs pointed, chest out, stick out your butt, keep your back curved, extend your neck, and smile!!
The photos turned out great, and we ended up doing another shoot for a zombie pin-up session at the Police Museum. Before you die, you have to get photos done with this lady because then you'll have some saucy photos to show your grankids when you get old. Look at what a hot number granny was back in the day!Listed in: Best of the best, Tips from the Halloween Queen

Review from Jessica O.
Vancouver, BC
Professional, creative and FUN! I have done photoshoots with Shimona Henry twice, and both times she has made me look like a major babe.
I have no modeling experience, but I didn't have to worry for one second about flailing helplessly in front of the camera - Shimona coached me through minor tweaks and touches that made each pose.... perfection. Everytime my face froze, my fingers stiffened or my tummy relaxed her expert eye caught it and she gently reminded me to adjust.
I would like my 10,000 dollar per day supermodel fee now, please? ;)
She has costumes and props for all body types - but do note that if your feet are not a size 9 you should bring your own hot shoes - I forgot mine! :(
My next big birthday event will definitely be a party at Pin Up Perfection. Every woman can look like a Pin Up!Listed in: My Very Favourites

Review from Monique B.
Port Moody, BC
Photographer Shimona, stylist Chevvy and make-up artist Kat were an amazing team at our recent pin-up party for a friend's stagette. They helped each of the five girls in attendance to find their inner vixen and we all came away having had the most fun and unique experience!
Doing something like a pin-up shoot can seem a bit daunting to the more camera shy, but Shimona is such a pro that she helps you look your best and feel at ease while you're being snapped. The studio has so many fun props and costumes it's an adventure to dig through and come up with ideas. If you have ever thought of trying out pin-up photography, you should book an appointment with these lovely ladies. -
Review from alison t.
Mission, BC
So my boyfriend and I were walking through the Taboo show in Abbotsford and saw Pinup Perfection was doing a promo shoot. My boyfriend is majorly into pinup photography so after we had a rest he talked me into doing them. Kat did my makeup and she did a great job. I personally hate being looked at and photographed but Shimona made me feel at ease, shockingly so considering i was in ruffled panties and a bikini top in front of a bzillion people I didn't know (at least I hope I didn't know them, omg). The pictures turned out great, i felt like a rockstar. I would recommend her to anyone :) She could make a bag of potatoes feel sexy. Very professional.
