This past weekend I went to Cincinnati to shoot an amazing collection of mermaids for a project I’m working on. My friend Megan has been collecting mermaids of all shapes and sizes since she was a little kid. The result is a bedroom completely covered with them, and boxes and boxes in storage…

It doesn’t matter where you live, I’ll come to you. Below are a couple of images that I’ve shot to start off the series, just to give you an idea of what I’m looking for:
