Forceful Beach Photography

Aymeline Valade is Fierce in Swimwear for Zoo Magazine Summer 2011

Model Aymeline Valade exudes some serious sass in this beachwear editorial for the Zoo magazine Summer 2011 issue. Fashion photographer Matthias Vriens-McGrath selected some killer angles to capture Valade's toned, tan physique; even when she's lounging, she exudes ferocity, tension and aggression.

The Zoo magazine Summer 2011 photo shoot takes place at a rocky beach on a gorgeous, slightly cloudy day. The fashion featured in the pictorial comes from esteemed fashion houses that include Louis Vuitton, Christian Louboutin, Lacoste and Sonia Rykiel. Some of the strappy two-piece bikinis wrap around Aymeline Valade's waist, neck and back in an especially artful fashion -- I can only imagine the tan lines these suits would cause if their wearer were to fall asleep in the sun!
