It’s the 10 year anniversary of the famous WI Calendar. A local company decided to gather 12 local amateurs and make their own version in bikinis (kinda). The shoot was over 2 days, one being on a beach and clifftop on the south coast of England. Yes, it was windy and raining. My brief was to make the beach shots look like summer! The girls were brilliant, a fun day out with hair (which lasted 15 seconds in the wind and rain) and makeup, which held up very well.
The shots are prepared for a calendar and are quite saturated.
Poor girl in no.3 is close to freezing to death. I could believe that no. 4 was taken in the summer, althogh the way she put her hands make her looks slightly uncomfortable. Love the contrast between the warm foreground and cold background.
It was so cold and windy on the outdoor shots. I did my best to make them look warm, but failed on the pink bikini shot. My hands were turning blue, theirs weren’t far behind.
