The "I just had a photo shoot!"/sharing photoshoots thread!

I don't know why I haven't looked at this thread before! This is awesome. Y'alls pics are giving me ideas for future ways to be daring in my own.

@ Shelby Coral, You look super comfortable underwater. I really like the first image. Great job!

**Derek Broussard** · 02-13-2018, 12:27 PM

Had a fun shoot in a very cold pool. We only had 15 minutes to set up the lights and shoot before we began to shake uncontrollably. But I am happy to see I'm getting better grasp on the underwater lighting.

Looking forward to my workshops and shooting some mermaids soon

It definitely took practice but I'm finally at the level of comfort I've strived to be

Um thanks, it was deliberate though I wanted a good shot of the fin.

**Seaspray Mermaid** · 03-05-2018, 03:55 PM

Your tail looks great! Very realistic in the pictures.

🧐

sure just saying the fin would have been there regardless but yeah I always keep mine pointed thought I’d share 🧠

Personally, I do both point and flex depending on the angle and what effect I want in the shot.

Thanks, that's the photoshop sadly. It's a real mess in person, I do not recommend using alligator skin vinyl on a fluke ever.

@Mortimer

Indeed the fin would have been there, Aquaseal neoprene glue made it a permanent fixture!

But yes, in all of the other shots the feet are down but for this one I opted to have them up. Thanks again!

We all decided it would be fun to take some pictures and decided to go to the great salt lake! It was super cold and those girls were troopers! We bundled them up in blankets then hurry and took a few pictures. The sunset was amazing!

What brave, tough little mermaids. I live in SLC and did some outside photos in December. There was no snow but it was so cold! Your nephew look darling!
