*SOME IDEAS FOR WHAT TO WEAR

Here are some ideas of things you can wear over your bathing suit to enhance your shoot, or as an alternative to a bathing suit:
• A SIMPLE DRESS – Look for one that is light and flowy. A solid bright color or a simple pattern that works well with your specific skin tone.
• A WHITE BUTTON DOWN SHIRT – A simple white shirt, or even a colored shirt.
• A SCARF – You want one that is long and wide. Something you can wrap around your shoulders and body with. It should enhance the style you are going for. 
• A SIMPLE PIECE OF FABRIC – Shop at a fabric store and purchase a few yards. You want to have enough to completely, and fully wrap around your body twice. (you want extra)
• BATHING SUITE COVER UP – Some cover ups (think lace) look great wet.
• LINGERIE – If you are looking for a hot sexy glam look, lingerie might be for you. Please make sure you are comfortable with how shear the fabric might look once it gets wet – OR as an alternative, you could wear it over your swim suit.

The point to all of these ideas is this; You are only limited by your imagination!  The VISION and direction is totally up to you. There are no rules to box you in. Let your imagination run free.

We also strongly suggest shopping second hand stores. Look for fabrics that support the style you want when wet. You also need to make sure that the fabric will not fall apart if soaked in water. Test your items before hand by placing all or part of them in some water.

WHAT IS NOT ALLOWED 
– We will not allow any items that may bleed color to be worn. ALSO you may not wear any item that has glitter or embellishments, such as feathers sequins or any items that can come off during the shoot.
– You will not be allowed in the water if you use hair products that leave an oily residue when wet. We had issues in the past that left the water murky and produced a ring around the spa. Thank you for your understanding.
