The Grand Theater

The Promised Theater Shoot

Hello again! Abby and I had a fantastic time styling our theater shoot. It took place at The Grand Theater in East Greenville, PA. Carl Black, the theater manager was a most welcoming host, allowing us the "run of the place" as we unloaded our beautiful furniture into his beautiful theater.

Our friend Ali so graciously offered to model for us. As you can see from the photos, she is a lovely lady inside and out. Alison Conklin took the photos. Alison is a real treat to work with. She gets into the zone and zeros in on her muse but she's so laid back that it's doubly impressive what she comes up with. Lighting was quite a challenge at the theater, but she was up to the task. We created a lounge scene in the lobby. A guest book scene on our fabulous card catolog stood before the ticket booth. The gorgeous flowers you see were provided by Elysian Fields in Bethlehem, PA. 

In the theater itself we set up a "grooming station" by the men's room. We styled the vanity with all things masculine.

In front of the candy counter we set up a delectable candy bar. Carl provided some popcorn bags from the 1940's to complete our vintage look.

On the stage we went for a different look. The theater provides a venue for children's birthday parties. What fun would that be! So on top of the stage we opened a trunk full of balloons and set up a pint sized party zone. 

Our next shoot would take place a week later and would be a combined shoot featuring a junkyard love scene and a woodland wedding scene. Stay tuned for those photos!
