I have been wanting to do a mermaid collaboration shoot for a while now. My mother owns 2 SUP boards, and we go out on the lake pretty much every time I go up to visit my parents. My gorgeous makeup artist friend was willing to become a mermaid for me, so we headed up to Tehachapi this week and made it happen. It was freezing and windy and cloudy, but I am so happy with how the images turned out!
