Pretty sure this is my favorite session I’ve ever done. I was giddy as I was building the set… each layer of white undersea adventure just made me smile bigger & bigger. White is my absolute favorite ever so to be able to do something like this is soooo up my alley (I would probably decorate in complete white if I could somehow make it work. yep- I’ve even gone so far as to have a white family room couch. 2 kids and all.. totally worth it). Then these vintage swim caps… *sigh* I wanted to buy ALL of them- every style, every color. Too tooo cute (can we bring this style back- please?). Then let’s add to this amazingness that I got to wear my bikini as my shoot attire. Honestly couldn’t have told you during the shoot if I was at a pool party or a crazy-fun-cute photo session… that, my friends, is what you call work ;)
