How does Scarlet Kiss sound for a pin-up studio?

Long story short-- I shoot pin-up, burlesque, boudoir, and tasteful nudes. It's a hobby I'd like to turn into more of an actual job. I want a creative studio name that is tasteful but sexual but does not sound limited to just pin-up. I thought maybe focusing on the well-known red lips of your classic pin up...

Is Scarlet Kiss Studios cheesy? Any other ideas are greatly appreciated. I am a traveling studio, not that it really matters... but I carry my studio with me and bring it to my clients.

Thanks in advance!

    It's not only cheesy but it paints you into a corner in terms of marketing. Do you think you'll get requests for corporate head shots or enviromentals? Do you think you'll get many requests for weddings? For product photography ...

    Sure, right now that might not be important but if you decide you need to broaden you market (either because you feel you have become to stagnate from shooting the same type of thing all the time or because you overestimated the market in your are for boudoir) then you'll be stuck, you'll have marketed yourself into a corner with nowhere to go without some serious re-branding.

    There are also a couple of legal issues when registering a company under an assumed name that you might want to look into.

    Hey, cool, i actually shot nudes of a burlesque dancer a couple months ago for a class, it was interesting.

    I like the idea of Scarlet Kiss, however, i wouldn't add the "Studios", that makes it sound a little cheesy.
