Madge’s very first vintage fashion photo shoot for our summer lookbook was so much fun, especially since we teamed up with local photographer Stefan Walker. Stefan, a hot new fashion photographer in Atlanta, brought along two of his favorite models, Alexis and Stephanie. Plus, we called a couple of Madge’s cousins in Wichita, Kristen, and Karah, who graciously agreed to join us. We planned an around-the-pool shoot, so of course, it rained all morning. Finally, just when we were about to give up, the rain stopped. Even the sun decided to come out by the end of the day. Enjoy these behind-the-scenes snapshots!

Stefan pitches in.
A giggle from Kristen. She is so adorable in a denim and floral skirt by Lily Nucci, a crochet shrug, and a straw wide-brim hat with dusty pink roses.
Stephanie in the wild.
Just about ready.
Show time. We just love this Cara Lottie, Paris orange pantsuit. The sailor pants are really on trend. Alexis is also wearing a hot orange 1970s hat with large gold studs on the front crown. Stephanie looks fab in a reversible jacket featuring two colors of green teamed with vintage Michael Kors lizard print jeans.
Stefan gets a laugh from Karah in a Jamie Shadock shirt and a fun vintage straw hat. Dig those hot pumps!
Yet another touch-up from Tanesha.

Karah waiting for the sun to come out. We love this mix of pink, black, and white colors, plus floral embroidery on this knit jacket and tank dress by Oppio.
It helps to be a ballet dancer. Isn’t this 1950s floral vintage dress pretty? Looks fab with the Stuart Weitzman purple lace pumps.

Stephanie is modeling a terrific mid-century raw silk blue dress plus a 1970s wide-brim hat. We just love blue and chocolate brown together, a look that works well into fall.

Another fall sneak preview. Stephanie is breathtaking in this 1980s Geoffrey Beene reversible opera coat and jumpsuit.

All done. Thanks to everyone who made this such a special day.

This is all very sophisticated and I loved the photos. You are entering the Big League (and if not it stills looks like it which is about the same).
So fun to see all of these fun shots and great clothes! Looks like everyone had a wonderful time!
Excellent post as always! Love the many styles shown here and the colors are fab! You have done it again Madges Hatbox.
