grandma-did:

I am gaining an appreciation for some of the work of some of these ‘50s pinup photographers (actually, from the hair and decor, I think this is early ‘60s).  A lot of them really didn’t care, so long as they got tits and ass.  Unless they’re otherwise interesting, like putting a set back together, I don’t bother with them.  But, now and then you get one like this.  From the dinette set pushed against the wall, I’m guessing this was shot in a small apartment using only natural light from a window.  See how the lighting works – soft, diffused, yet providing a nice contrast.  It’s really a nice portrait of the model’s face.  As the saying goes, even a blind pig finds an acorn now and then.

P.S. note the brass platter mounted on the wall.  I’m mentioned this now-passe’ decorative touch before.
