Bare-Faced Beach Editorials

Jessica Wertheim Photographed This Beachy Editorial for C-Heads

Jessica Wertheim collaborated with stylist Anna Rohrig to create this beachy editorial for C-Heads.

Brown-eyed model Jennifer appealed to Wertheim because of her "Americal Apparel cross Calvin Klein type of feel." Indeed, the fresh-faced 20-year-old wouldn't look out of place modeling for either of those brands. Jennifer, who is new to Hawaii, was photographed on the beautiful, secluded area of North Shore bay wearing a cut-out swimsuit, casual denim and a black maxi dress.

Unlike most beach editorials, which feature models wearing full faces of makeup, Jennifer's hair and makeup styling was kept to the absolute minimum. I must say, it was refreshing to see her face almost bare, turned up gratefully towards the sun.
