BOOK A PINUP PHOTO SHOOT WITH SOUTH FLORIDA'S PREMIER PINUP PHOTOGRAPHER JANETTE VALENTINE AND HELP AN ANIMAL IN NEED!
I’m very pleased to announce that now through December, everytime you book a Pin-Up shoot you’ll be helping a furry one in need as 10% percent from each shoot booked will be donated!
I’m a huge supporter of a number organizations that speak up for animals by defending their rights and groups that help finding strays sound homes.
At the end of December I will be making a donation to the Humane Society of Greater Miami in the hopes that the holidays will be a bit cozier for some furry babies!
OCTOBER
MISS VALENTINE FEATURED IN MIAMI SUNPOST’S POWER WOMEN 2008 ISSUE!
So, I had an awesome surprise when I was contacted by the Miami Sun Post only to learn that I was among a group of women chosen as nominees for their "Power of Women 2008" issue! This issue focuses on showcasing women from South Florida who somehow contribute to society or are successful in their careers.
Needless to say, I'm happy as can be to be featured and am so thankful that I am able to do what I love and have the support of so many wonderful people, my friends and my crew!
I hope to continue to help women feel better about themselves and give them something fun to look forward to.
In a society where sex sells and women are constantly degraded and rarely given the respect they deserve, I'm proud to be able to give ladies a chance to feel beautiful and sexy and mainly have fun while doing so.

Cheers!

SEPTEMBER
TERRIBLY GIRLY PHOTOSTUDIOS - I FINALLY MOVED IN!!!
For those of you who joined me in my Hollywood studio, thanks so much for all the fun times in my lil’ place! But hey, a girl needs space and I’m so stoked that I’ve finally moved into a bigger studio. The new Terribly Girly Studio is now located in Miami, easy to find, and best of all super roomy! We will have a hair and makeup room where ladies can get dolled up and a new wardrobe room that will be stocked with all the pin-up fixin’s. I plan on holding more events like theme days, a variety of pin-up workshops and more excuses to get the gals together. Check back for new postings!
ON A SIDE NOTE:
I want to make an announcement in response to e-mails I've received regarding booking me for private shoots.
ATLANTA GALS ROCKED MY SOCKS!
Sooo...I've been a bit out of touch lately because I've been getting caught up with loads of work and trying to get my life in order after my move into my new studio in Miami, but in the midst of all this I took a trip to Atlanta and got the chance to meet so many wonderful people! I CANNOT wait to go back! Hotlanta gals are amazing....I had such a great time with all of you and am super pleased with the outcome of our shoots.
Many thanks to my ATL booking girl, Jen for all your help and for the lovely accomodations in the "princess" suite. Bobbie, you're the best....and when you blow, well, you know.... :)
The girls were dolled up thanks to hair and makeup artists Marilyn San German and local peach, Cherry Dame, who by the way, has the best goodies in that lil' suitcase of hers! woo-hoo!!
New photos have been added to the pin-up gallery…these gals are hot!
I’ll be coming back very, very soon. I can't begin to thank Phil from Sims City Hot Rods enough for being so accomodating and just about the funniest mofo. As well as Tommy from Street Sweepers Hot Rods for rounding up the boys and helping out as well. You rock.
Cheers!
