Photos From The 2016 Swimsuit Issue

Our team shot from dawn to dusk for 5 straight days in seven locations of the Abaco Islands in Bahamas. We had four models, three boats and a very demanding shot list to make the magazine. Here are some outtakes – you be the judge.

Gabby strolls on the beach while I’m stumbling backwards to get the boat in the shot thats moving t about 50 MPH

A break from the shoot almost always means some good un-planned photo-ops

Mela is teasing the Andre at the helm as I fire the shutter, I can’t just let this natural light go to waste.

The lovely models get a quick sunset snack on the boat, while I shoot from the marlin tower above the center console creating a better angle

Two of our three boats were not only for transportation, they were sponsors for the photoshoot. So the boats also became “models” of sorts.

Mela tries to save the shoot when the sun plays hide-&-Go Seek. I think she pulled it off.

Gabby makes a pose for the camera while she was stretching after a long shoot. “Improvised Photo-Op”

Mela braves the frigid February water so we can attempt some under water shots.

Gabi dove right into that cold water so she could give us a incredible closing shot that finishes the Swimsuit Issue of 2016

This is the final cover shot for the magazine which is a composite of four different photos
