Themed photo shoots?

Hi,

Am trying to arrange something a bit different for my sister's 21st and thought it would be fun for her and friend to have one of those photo shoots where you get dressed in period costume - victorian, 1940's, etc but can not find anywhere/anyone who does it.

We live in Shropshire so I'll looking for a place ideally in Shropshire/Wolverhampton/West Midlands.

Would be grateful for any help and suggestions!

:)

    That's a good idea.

    I was thinking if there was a working museum or similar near you? I've seen people dressing up for photos in places like that.

    Or hire some costumes and just get a normal photographer. I have a lot of contacts all over the country that are into the 1950's if that is any help.

    yes, I think you are right, someone has told me today the Black Country Museum do period portraits.

    Have also found out today about a shop in Ironbridge, Telford called 'A Bridge in Time' that does Victorian Portraits so I've emailed them for some more info.

    Am also after a reasonable priced pink limo/hummer hire if anyone can help! So far ive been quoted £370 for a pink hummer and £170 for a limo.

    Thanks for your help :)

    Hope you find what you're looking for locally.

    No idea about pink cars, sorry. You could write an ad on gumtree perhaps.

    Excellent, thanks very much! I was also looking for this kind of thing, also in the Midlands area, it seems to be exactly the place. :T
