For our Pin-Up of the week we bring you the Red Hot Michele Del Ray. She is the full pin-up package, with her own prop if needed (a ’64 Thuderbird!), a house designed to make an interesting shooting location, her own wardrobe and does her own make-up. Just in case you are in need of a quick fix, she can make it happen 😉 Michele is a classic collector with a flare for vintage fashion. She has a look that can capture a variety of time periods and genres. Enjoy our post of the vibrant pin-up with a passion for hot-rods!
My name is Michele, also known as “Michele Del Ray” in the pinup scene. I am primarily interested in Pinup & Alternative modeling. I love anything from the 40’s through 60’s in style as well as modern takes on these eras. I love all things tiki, and am interested in shooting in the style of exotica/tiki/voodoo/kitch. I also am a big classic and hot rod nut. I am open to shooting lite Bettie Page style bondage and implied but not full nude.
I started out doing this because I love classic old glamour photos and wanted to capture my own image in this style. I really loved the shoots I have done so far and the fantastic people that I have met doing this. I am always positive, professional, and fun to work with on shoots.
I live in San Diego and I have a really cool house that is good for shoots. We have a 50’s diner, tiki lounge, macabre living room, and western 50’s room (under construction) available. I work in Architecture and Interior Design. If you are interested in using my home for a shoot location please contact me for photos.
I also own a ’64 Thunderbird (light satin green and gloss pearl white with black interior) if needed for a shoot. I also can provide my own wardrobe (depending on the theme, I have a large private vintage collection of 50’s and 60’s, vintage lingerie and furs). I can also do my own Makeup (Glamor, Pin up) and Hair (50’s sets) if needed.

Now on to the hot chicks who have hot cars…..
At Dalton’s with my trophy for People’s Choice, March 2011! It was a big one!!
We also wanted to add some of Michele Del Ray’s Drawings. She is not just a gorgeous pinup but also very talented with a pencil!
Not to mention I also go go dance for Jason Lee and the R.I.P. Tides in San Diego, CA, and have a hair accessory line called Modern Nostalgia amongst all the other things I do! 😉
