Mermaid Enjoying the Lakeside Sunset

I had the opportunity to sneak down to the lake for a very impromptu mermaid photoshoot with my husband Eric.

It was such a beautiful evening and the sunset was absolutely stunning.

The water was definitely too cold to be safe for swimming without protective gear, but regardless people were still out in it (I was shocked to be honest).

I'm stilling playing around with the styling for this wig and after the shoot, I decided to try different placement for the braids.

To be honest I can't really see myself enjoying the experience of actually swimming with a wig (especially one this ridiculously long) but it definitely did help keep me warm on land which was fantastic.

I forgot that it had actually rained the night before and so the beach was REALLY soggy and it did make switching from pose to pose a little... messy.

I would recommend bringing with a plastic/rubber mat of some kind to put under your towel because my bum was SOAKED after only a few minutes (while getting into my tail).

I recently did a TikTok showing how I edited the above pic if you would like to check that out for a little behind-the-scenes mermaid goodness. 

I am really looking forward to going back for more mermaid fun this summer! 💖

Happy Swimming!
