666photography has clever vintage ideas, beautifully mixing old and new styles. With the help of old-school theater style sets, hand-painted backdrops and [retro costumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-54), 666photography is able to transform anyone into the ideal pin-up girl. Tattoos, as shown by the ladies here, are unique accessories that give the photos a modern twist.

Gayla is one of the leading photographers in the studio, and is responsible for all of the creative ideas at 666photography from start to finish. Lisa Naeyaert is a visionary force behind the makeup. When you look closely at the images, you will notice the precise attention to detail, lighting and colours. Apparently [ink and burlesque](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tattoo-marathon) go hand in hand these days. Tattoos seem to be a new way of expressing yourself, and these photos show the love for an amazing retro era.
