Alvarado’s Military Pin-Ups

The vintage heyday of American pinups is presented here in full view, with a modern flare and that unique Alvarado touch. Military-uniform- and gear-clad models featured with classic combat aircraft-from the WWII P-51 Mustang and Spitfire to the Vietnam-era F-4 Phantom jet to the present day-hint at the lure of Gil Elvgren and Alberto Vargas’s vintage pin-up art. Fun and sexy in-studio poses are shown in full dynamic color as Alvarado’s noted lighting and photo-editing techniques make each image jump off the page. A tribute to military service arms worldwide, this new look at an old tradition is the latest in Alvarado’s series of pin-up books. AUTHOR: Robert Alvarado is a modern pin-up photographer who resides in Orange County.
