Let out your inner vintage vixen!
Re-creating the iconic styles of mid-20th century pin-up girl paintings, photographs, and girly magazines is exactly how Pop Rocket Studios began. Before expanding our services to include other more modern genres of photography, we were Calgary’s first retro glamour and vintage pin-up photography specialists exclusively catering to all of you classy yet sassy ladies out there wanting to liberate your own inner vintage vixen. Find out more…

With a shared passion for timeless art and vintage kitsch, we were on a mission to bring back the classic eras of cheesecake, bombshells, and Hollywood femme fatales to the everyday gal ready to let her hair down and have a little fun. Now, years later, our creative revival has evolved into our very own signature style of vintage and pin-up photography, and what we’ve become the most renowned for! To this day pin-ups are still what we do the most of, and are still totally the most fun!
Our style of pin-up photography is not only as a creatively inspired outlet for us to re-create the iconic styles of the 1940’s and 50’s, but as a way to provide a fun and self-assuring outlet to women everywhere. I strongly believe that no matter your age, size, or body type, every woman deserves to feel like a pin-up girl. All you need is a willingness to try something a little more adventurous, and the readiness to let your hair down and have a little fun – we will handle the rest.
