It is all done in her signature vintage style and features the very best models in the business.
About the author
Viva Van Story grew up in a small town in Wisconsin, where she dreamed of being an artist. Right after high school, she headed to New York City with a suitcase, portfolio and US$100. After modelling for photographer John Santerineross, she stepped to the other side of the lens and has since become one of the most recognised pin-up photographers in the world, known for her perfectionism and command of mood and light. In 2010, she cemented her reputation with her bestselling solo book for Korero: Viva’s Pinups: Bullet Bras and Backseat Betties. With Sheer, she explores new ground: “I think of my work as being in a constant state of evolution — I want to keep pushing the boundaries.”
