## About Themed & Era-Based Styles

Getting that retro vibe right is about more than just a sharp winged liner. I focus on matching your foundation finish, brow shape, and lip style to the specific decade you want to channel. Whether it is a 90s aesthetic or a vintage classic, I also handle the hairstyling and accessory pinning to make sure your look is authentic from head to toe.

When you have a specific theme in mind for a photoshoot, the details make all the difference. I love the creative challenge of traveling back in time to capture a specific aesthetic.

### What goes into a period-specific look

* **Face & Base:** We start with the era in mind. A 70s look might require a dewier finish, while a classic vintage look often calls for a matte, porcelain base. I carefully alter brow shapes and lip contours to match the style of the time.
* **Hairstyling:** The hair is usually the giveaway. I create retro puffs, pin-up curls, or sleek, voluminous hair to pull the whole concept together.
* **Styling Assistance:** I do not stop at makeup. I help with draping and accessory placement, like headscarves or vintage clips, so you are fully prepared for the camera.

### Why shoot with me

I work across Bengaluru, Davanagere, and throughout Karnataka. My process starts with a quick consultation where we align on your mood board or vision. I bring professional kits that are ready for studio lighting, ensuring your skin looks flawless and the bold colors stay vibrant throughout the shoot. If you are looking for specific references or want to try a new era, let us chat about how we can make it happen.
