Theme: Vintage 1950's & Early 60's: The Golden Age of Flight 

We're returning to the Golden Age of Flight, the era of American Airlines, Pan Am and TWA.  When travel was luxurious, passengers rocked their most fashion forward outfits and aviators protected US skies from Cold War invasion in their Convair Delta Daggers. Models: explore 1950's/early 60's fashion for inspiration, with a focus on spring travel. Check out vintage travel posters, watch Catch Me If You Can or Mad Men, or explore "Golden Age of Flight" on Pinterest.  Accessories may include vintage luggage & bags, parasols, scarves, aviator shades, bomber jackets, hats, ect. We'll be welcoming both passenger and aviator vibes. If you'd like to exchange ideas and coordinate with others, join the Portrait Slam Forum on Facebook. Please remember, our fashion theme is not a costume. We celebrate diversity, body positivity, self-expression, style, and creativity. Let us know if you have any questions! 

Models:

Please arrive dressed in theme and ready to shoot. Radbird will have a Golden Age of Flight inspired wardrobe on location for models to incorporate into their look. Please don't miss this! Radbird will be giving away a prize at the end to the model who rocks their wardrobe with the most creativity. We'll have a space designated for wardrobe. Please try to arrive by 5:30pm. Check in, explore the space for inspiring portrait locations, practice with lighting from Looking Glass Photo, meet other creatives, and browse wardrobe before introductions begin at 6:00pm. We begin each slam by paring everyone up. Please be prepared to work with many different photographers in quick 10 minute sessions.
