666 Photography: Virgin Queens and High-Camp Divas

666 Photography is an Austin, Texas based company that specializes in retro/vintage photography. Their props are handmade, their backdrops are handpainted, and if they can't find the perfect costume, they make it! The awe-inspiring staged playful pop creations collected here feature such fantasy elements as modern women recast as High-Baroque Madonnas; amazing 1940s hair styles, dried-flower corsets, pin-up girls riding carousels, circus glamour, and ironicrecreations of Weimar Germany cabaret and decadent 1920s Berlin. The visual invention is stunning. Often inspired by icons of female beauty and power ranging from mermaids to Mucha, these unique photographic visions have attracted such fans as Courtney Love. Collected here, they become a riot of astounding creativity and color.
