I thought it was about time to update this section so here goes.. Hi there my name is Roy Varga I am 27 years old and have been working as photographer since 2005. I never went to school for photography and I have the highest respect for people who work with film cause that shit is hard and to me those people are the true blue photographers. I am just a guy who can push a button. I have always had an over active imagination so I am constantly thinking of new ideas and concepts.
I am a normal down to earth guy my folks are normal everyday hard working lower middle class so I pretty chill and rarely uptight about anything. I have had the pleasure of working with just about every well known model out there in my industry and I have worked with the normal everyday gal from down the street and to me every gal is the same. No one is better then any one else and I treat them all the same. I am always willing to help any one who has questions be it a photographer or a model, and any one who takes the time to write me I always make sure to write them back, its only fair.
ALBERTO VARGAS was a famous pinup artist, and as a fellow Vargas I share in his passion for pinup. The only down side is I cant draw for shit haha so I take pictures. Feel free to hit me up whenever you like I like to think of my self as approachable and I am always up for interesting conversation.

Who I'd like to meet:
Varga is the ONLY Pinup Photographer...
1.-To travel this much for their clients We have been lucky to travel all over the U.S. and have set up shots in over 24 different locations from coast to coast and Hawaii.. we usually shoot in each location at least once a year.. if one of our locations is near you hit us up we might be there soon.
2.- That Edits ALL of their own images This one is important cause it effects the cost of the shoot.. if a photographer doesn't do their own editing that usually mean that they have to hire some one to do it.. which means that the cost of hiring that extra person is then past on to YOU. How can you tell? well if most of their work looks like it has way too different editing styles odds are they hire some one. Dont look at there portfolio work thats always going to be there best stuff.. Find some of their clients and look at those images.. often client stuff is edited by the photographer and the port stuff is sent out to people that know what they are doing.. things to look for.. Matted skin- why is the skin plastic like..Loss of features- most humans have texture to their face.. if all you see is eyes and a mouth thats a bad sign. Waves in the background-Its so horrible but I see it all the time when they try to shrink the tummy or make a curve extra curvy and now whatever was behind the model is all warped. Is there anything wrong with hiring an editor? of course not but understand that the cost is passed on to you.. and personally from a photographers point of view if I am taking the image but paying some one else to Fix it, then is it really mine and am I really that good..edit/correct/fix/enhance/touch up/ it all means the same thing.. wasnt good enough and needed help.
3.-That Turns Normal girls into Models We love finding new talent and we have had the pleasure of working with some amazing girls .. Here is one of our favorites.. and it was a pleasure working with her. it was her first shoot ever in her life and now you might know her as Charlie sin. Oh Yeah did I mention that she had just had Her Second Kid 3 months before the "AFTER" shot
4.-That builds Custom sets for you.
Ok so with most photographers your lucky if you get a back drop and a stool.. but we like to give you a little more.. we go above and beyond by building 1 of a kind sets that you can only get with us..
5.-That shoots every one!!! I hate that most photographers only shoot what THEY think is hot.. I mean back in the day girls had curves .. we shoot everyone no matter how curvy.. Here is one of our Favorite Florida clients.. Miss JLynne ..couldnt ask for a sweeter client. *CLICK* her name to go to her page and give her some props.. you go girl with your sexy self..
5.-That is featured in Magazines on a regular basis We have been fortunate enough to hook up with a bunch of magazines that like our stuff.. we have been featured in Tattoo/Hotrod/Mortorcylce/car/lifestyle magazines all over the U.S. Pretty much if a magazine features hot chicks doing anything haha they usually like our work. We are also locked in with a few magazines as their Official Pinup Photographer. Here are 3 mags we are featured in this month..first 2 are cover shots and the third is in the mag
7.-To give you a payment plan We realize that in this day and age money is tight but that doesn't mean you cant have amazing one of kind images. We are fortunate enough to be so booked in advance that we have stated offering a payment plan.
***Payment Process***
We
have broken down our Payment process into 3 easy payments. This will
help to take the sting out of the cost of the shoot and help insure
that you will be able to afford the shoot.
Initial Deposit-
This will be charged when you are ready to book the shoot, We
suggest you pay this asap to insure no one takes your slot as well as
to space it out form the next payment so its not such a hit to the
pocket book.
Confirmation Deposit- This is due 1
month before your shoot date. This payment confirms your shoot and
officially locks you in for the agreed upon date and time. IF YOU ARE
BOOKING YOUR SHOOT 1 MONTH BEFORE THE SHOOT DATE YOU ARE REQUIRED TO
PAY YOUR INITIAL DEPOSIT AND YOUR CONFIRMATION DEPOSIT AT THE SAME TIME.
Shoot Remainder- This will be due one week before the day of the shoot and will complete the payment of your shoot.
8. Who works with the big name girls as well as the everyday gal we have had the pleasure of working with Some of the most well known gals in the Pinup world. Names like Masuimi Max, Jami Deadly, Dayna Delux, Sabina Kelley Just to name a few and each one of them is a joy to have worked with and we look forward to continue to work with them. 9.-Provides just about everything... We have made it our goal to make it as easy as possible for our clients to get amazing shots.. not only do we provide all the props and some wardrobe. We only work with experienced hair and makeup people. Each one of our MUAH's has atleast 8-10 years experience and have been featured in magazines all over the U.S. and over seas...our goal is to make it so you wake up, come in clean faced, and leave with something like this.. Christen one of our Satisfied clients from FL
10.-That lets you wear what makes you comfortable. So many photographers today shoot nothing but titts and ass.. I mean come on where is the class. We have a whole album of nude shots that dont show a thing.. I always believed that its all about the tease, to me that's what true pinup is.. to Quote Dita Von Tease "You give them a little, then you take it away". I mean there are some tasteful nudes out there but Personally thats not our style and we DO NOTshoot anything that shows Nip or VJ, sorry hun.. that may be cool for some photographers but thats not our style... And odds are if a photographer shoots nothing but explicit nude shots then they will more then likely want you to show it all, and they will more then likely not be as into it if you dont.. just my opinion
11.-Who lets you leave with ALL of your images THE DAY OF THE SHOOT. You have to understand we are not like most photographers who are worried about people seeing their unedited images. Our clients happiness is more important to us then peoples opinions. We have been working on perfecting our lighting over the last 5 years to help insure that our images need little to no editing. Of course an edited image is always going to look better then one that has not been touched up. Thats just a fact. But You have to understand I am old school as fuck and personally I feel if some one is charging you hundreds of dollars for a shoot you should leave with something in hand that day. I totally understand about them not wanting to let out the Hi rez images but there is no reason why they cant run the images through a "resize action" and give you low rez images that day or at least a proof sheet. This only applies to digital images of course cause film needs to be processed but odds are if they have a digital camera and shoot on the road then they have a laptop so there is really no excuse. If a photographer doesnt give you images that day its cause they are concerned that there work isnt good enough. -again just my opinion. candid shot.. no editing other then resizing
"THIS IS HOW I HAVE CHOSEN TO RUN MY BUSINESS" - Roy Varga
lets see if others will go that far for you.. I dont have to make sure other photographers are happy I just have to make sure my clients are happy.. and if your a photographer and this upsets you I am truly sorry but this is not meant to attack you but to show that we will go above and beyond for those girls that trust us with one of the most precious of things to a woman..Her self confidence.
P.S. If any one can mention even 1 pinup photographer that does all 11 of these statements you let me know.... and no 10 out of 11 doesnt count.
and before you start to think that we are full of our selves and big headed.. your just fooling your self.. cause no matter how good we get at what we do.. I will always suggest that if you want to work with 2 Pinup Photographers that are 10 times better then I am you need to look up Shannon Brooke and 666 photography..I only hope to be as good as them some day. These are 2 gals that are not only class acts and true ladies but amazing at what they do.. And also run their business the way They choose.
