More from that overcast beach shoot with Kam ☁️🌊

I always get asked if I have more photos of a particular model or from a specific shoot, and for the most part, because I work with beginners, I don’t. Still, every once in a while, I work with my muses and subjects I’ve worked with, so I have other images. Someone here asked if I had more photos from this moody, overcast day at the beach with Kam, and yes, I do. While I don’t always have “extra” shots from every session, working with someone like Kam makes it easier. We’ve shot together quite a bit now, and when there’s strong rapport, I don’t have to overthink. We can move quickly, trust each other, and let the shoot unfold naturally, which often means I walk away with more usable frames than expected.

Overcast weather can be tricky. On this island, the weather unfolds as it wants, sometimes rain and sometimes sun; and every so often, rain over here but several feet away, sun. But I love what it offers; the clouds act like a giant softbox, wrapping everything in soft light. It’s not always the look I plan for, but you learn to go with it. The weather doesn’t always cooperate, but that’s where having the weather-sealed Fujifilm X-T5 comes in handy. I don’t stress about a bit of mist or salty spray.

We’re planning another bikini shoot in a couple of weeks and something special in the studio, too: a lingerie session with wings. I can’t wait to share more from both sets.

Thanks again for being here. Let me know which of these stood out to you. Your support and feedback help shape what I create and share next.

Here’s the link to the photos. Thank you!
