I had been preparing this Summer swimsuit look for Surtr (42) for quite some time. Taking advantage of the fine weather, we specifically booked a yacht to head out to sea for the shoot, which gave rise to this Part 1. At first, I was a bit worried because sunlight on the yacht deck was extremely intense and prone to overexposure, especially since white lace fabrics easily lose texture details. Fortunately, the photographer was very experienced, utilizing reflectors and the ship's metal railings to find suitable shading angles, perfectly preserving the lace's layered depth. Red hair paired with black horns is a classic color combination; the bright, airy feel outdoors fits the character setting exceptionally well, and I learned to relax my body to flow with the sea breeze. For makeup, I specifically chose cooler tones to contrast the red hair (Red-haired girl), making the gaze appear sharper. The leg tattoo stickers and black horn ornaments also played a significant role during the shoot, especially as sunlight filtered through the white dress, highlighting the material's translucency and texture. I deliberately chose to sit on a stool in the center of the yacht, utilizing an unobstructed composition to showcase leg lines and keep the frame clean.
Later, considering changes in the environment, we moved indoors for an additional set. The indoor setting used warm yellow ambient lighting to create a different sense of intimacy, where a languid reclining pose beautifully highlighted the white dress's texture and overall silhouette. Between these two shots—one outdoors and one indoors—the vibes are completely distinct. The shooting process was far from easy: stepping barefoot onto the sun-baked deck was scorching hot, and supporting my body while wearing those heavy horns truly tested my stamina. Yet seeing the desired aesthetic achieved in the photos made all the hardships worthwhile. Regarding outfit details, the straps and headpieces on the white dress were all refined and polished by hand to ensure the overall look was complete. Because there are quite a lot of photos from this Yacht photoshoot, I released Part 1, sharing two representative shots from the outdoor yacht and indoors for now. Between outdoor clarity and indoor warmth, which style do you think suits this look better?
