I had a fabulous time at The Pinup Academy!  🙂 October made me look & feel beautiful – the makeup & hair style were perfect!  🙂 The looks created were such fun  🙂 …a real treat & a wonderful experience!  🙂 …such a friendly & welcoming place where I was made to feel so relaxed & I was given good advice about my poses for the photographs  🙂 Thank you October & Si, I had a wonderful time  <3

October is an incredibly talented lady who did such an amazing job styling hair for myself and my 6 bridesmaids for my wedding. Everyone looked insanely good (if I do say so myself) and our guests were blown away by the detail and artistry. To top it off, October is a lovely lady too! Thank you so much x

I had a lovely day with October Divine at The Pin Up Academy, having opted for the biggest package as the sets looked lots of fun. I talked with her about the kind of images I wanted, and I felt she listened to this and with her guidance and experience I’m really hoping my photos will turn out well! I just felt totally relaxed and really pampered as October is very, very good at making hair so pretty! I told her I wanted my mother to see my hairstyle the next day so she fixed it so that it would survive a night. (All my family loved it, thank you!). I think I have already persuaded my niece to have a photo shoot – there’s a good range of prices – and I hope to come back in the new year to do something a bit different for me as I would be so comfortable with October. She is very professional.The atmosphere of the studio is very positive and friendly and everyone in her local community are so fortunate to have such a wonderful facility and lovely lady there! Well worth a visit wherever you are in the country as very unique. Highly recommended.
Edit: just received my set of photos. I love them. My family says they are the best I have ever done. October captured the moods I wanted, and the sets are so pretty and cute and glamorous I think everyone would be very pleased with their photos. Hoping to book again in a few months�

I attended the pin up academy for a beauty masterclass with October Divine. The room was all set up with lots of goodies to play with including out very own tool kit to take home so we could recreate the looks we had learned. October was friendly, professional and knowledgeable as well as patient with a group of novices. She talked us through the basics step by step and stepped in to lend a hand when needed. Cups of tea were supplied regularly throughout the day and we were treated to a plentiful lunch. The day ended with a little photo shoot, which I was feeling very nervous about. October was forthcoming with instruction which helped put me at ease. I’m really looking forward to seeing the finished photo! Thank you for a great day pin up academy team! X

I had such a lovely time with October at my make over and shoot- she’s just lovely and makes you feel so relaxed. The shoot was loads of fun… cannot recommend highly enough.

On my way home from my second Pinup Academy shoot and I’m already ready to go back!!!! Everyone should treat themselves to a pinup makeover…You get to feel a million bucks and any nerves go out the window as Si and October are so professional and amazing at what they do. Such a good day from start to finish…AND THEN YOU GET YOUR IMAGES!!! Need I say more?

I had an amazing day at the pinup academy. Si and October were very professional and created a relaxed atmosphere for the photoshoot. My hair and makeup were absolutely stunning. Highly recommended. I can’t wait to see the photos! Thank you for a wonderful time #thepinupacademy

I had such a good time at my photo shoot with The Pinup Academy. October and Si were so warm and welcoming to both my husband and myself. Nothing was too much trouble for them and I didn’t feel rushed at any point. My hair and make up looked amazing and the shoot itself was great fun! I was put at ease, made to feel comfortable and in turn could really enjoy the experience. Would highly recommend to everyone- whether it’s portfolio images, a pamper day to treat yourself or if you would just like some lovely photos as a keepsake. Extremely professional
