Enter the World of the Retro Dolls

Retro Doll Haus is opening its doors for a high fashion editorial photography production, inviting photographers to step inside the creative world of the Retro Dolls.

This is not a typical photography meetup.

This is a live fashion production environment designed by Creative Director Hannah Be, founder of Retrospect Vintage Fashion.

Known for producing fashion experiences from Sacramento to New York, Hannah Be brings photographers inside the creative process behind editorial fashion imagery, styling, and visual storytelling.

Participants will photograph Retro Doll models styled in curated vintage couture from the Retrospect Vintage Fashion archive, creating dramatic, cinematic fashion imagery within a fully styled production environment.

A Live Fashion Production Experience

The Retro Doll Haus production transforms the studio into a rotating editorial fashion set where photographers capture high fashion imagery while observing the creative direction process.

Throughout the event photographers will photograph:

• Retro Doll models styled in vintage couture
• professionally directed editorial fashion scenes
• high fashion styling concepts
• cinematic fashion portrait setups
• rotating production sets designed for editorial imagery

Each photographer will rotate through styled fashion environments, creating portfolio-worthy images inspired by fashion editorials and magazine campaigns.

Celebrity Fashion Styling & Creative Direction

This production is directed by Hannah Be, a published designer and celebrity fashion stylist known for her distinctive retro editorial aesthetic.

During the event photographers will gain insight into:

• fashion styling techniques
• editorial fashion direction
• posing and model movement
• visual storytelling in fashion imagery
• how fashion campaigns are conceptualized and produced

Photographers will observe how styling, hair, makeup, and direction come together to create powerful fashion imagery.

Hair, Makeup & Fashion Styling Team

Retro Doll Haus productions feature a collaborative fashion team including:

• professional Retro Doll models
• fashion stylists
• hair and makeup artists
• creative direction leadership

Participants will photograph models fully styled for editorial fashion photography, allowing photographers to work within a true fashion production environment.

Interactive Creative Collaboration

The Retro Doll Haus experience encourages collaboration between photographers, models, and creatives.

Participants will:

• photograph rotating fashion sets
• collaborate with models during editorial sessions
• network with creatives in the fashion industry
• learn techniques used in professional fashion shoots

This environment allows photographers to experience the rhythm of a live fashion production.

Build a Powerful Fashion Portfolio

Photographers will leave the event with high fashion imagery designed to elevate their portfolio.

These images are ideal for:

• fashion photography portfolios
• social media branding
• editorial submissions
• creative campaigns
• building fashion photography services

Retro Doll Haus productions are specifically designed to help photographers develop fashion-focused portfolios that stand out in the industry.

Limited Photographer Access

To maintain the quality of the production environment, participation is limited.

Only a small number of photographers are invited into each Retro Doll Haus production.

Events frequently sell out due to the limited capacity and unique production access.

Early registration is strongly recommended.

The Retro Doll Haus Tour

Retro Doll Haus productions are expanding beyond Sacramento as a traveling fashion photography experience, bringing the Retro Doll aesthetic and creative production format to cities across the country.

Each production invites photographers into the creative universe of the Retro Dolls — a world of vintage fashion, cinematic imagery, and bold editorial storytelling.

Who Should Attend

This experience is ideal for:

• fashion photographers
• portrait photographers expanding into editorial work
• photography students
• creative professionals
• photographers building fashion portfolios

All experience levels are welcome.
