Before/After

Many people wonder why the unique portraits that we create are so different from the many other photographers out there. The answer is simple, it’s the Portland Pin-Ups Magic….hair, make-up, lights, posing and custom artwork retouching.

Booking a session with Portland Pin-Ups is the first step to owning a one-of-a-kind artwork from the west coast’s leading pin-up artist, and the creative team that help create stunning artworks.

Each session begins with one of our amazing stylists pampering you with awesome 50’s hair and make-up artistry. Our on-set creative team includes professional stylists Nicky and Erienne, and your own personal Bombshell for the day, Johanna, all dedicated to ensuring your experience with Portland Pin-Ups is exciting, unique and special.

Mike long is the founding artist of Portland Pin-Ups. Unlike many photographers, Mike began his career as a retoucher prior to Adobe’s release of Photoshop, which led him to pick up a camera. His knowledge of portrait enhancement is more extensive than the average photographer today. When comparing Mike’s often imitated work, his photography techniques are noticeable and differentiate him from the others.
