About Chic Resort & Vacation Wear
For resort shoots, fabric is your best friend. In the shots you see here for Kumari Resortwear, I focused heavily on movement. I spent time pinning and adjusting kaftans to ensure they catch the ocean breeze without losing their shape. It is all about making sure the garment looks as free spirited as a holiday feels, even when we are dealing with multiple takes and changing light.
My approach to resort wear is simple. It should feel like a breeze on a hot day. When I style for lookbooks or online stores, I move away from stiff poses and aim for that relaxed, sun soaked energy.
To achieve this, I coordinate closely with the photographer on set. We look at how the light hits the fabric, whether it is a sheer kaftan or a structured swimsuit cover up. My job is to control the chaos. I handle the steaming, the pinning, and the constant adjustments so the model feels comfortable and the brand message stays clear.
I have experience handling everything from beach shoots to pool side productions. Whether your collection is about luxury resort wear or casual vacation staples, I tailor my kit and my eye to match the vibe.
If you are planning a campaign, think about what you want your audience to feel when they see the images. Is it a quiet moment in a villa? Or the energy of a beach walk? I am here to build that story with you. Drop me a message and let us get into the details of your next project.
