Jessica Wertheim styled and photographed Shelby, a dark-haired beauty from modeling representative Kathy Muller, on a beach on the North Shore of Oahu.
If you're finding it hard to tear your eyes away from Shelby, I don't blame you. The young model has a particularly mesmerizing quality about her. Whether it's her smoldering stare (given from beneath a swath of long, luxurious hair), or sensual body language (it must be easy to be "sensual" when you're a long-limbed amazon), is hard to say. Either way, she is enigmatic and beautiful against the cloudless sky and bluer than blue waters of Hawaii.
Wetheim dressed Shelby in a series of bathing suit options, from colorful cut-outs to string bikini tops paired with lacy, vintage shorts.
