The Blacklog Editorial No 44 shoot is a sweeping and dramatic declaration of love and friendship.

Shot by the water with the ocean's [dramatic waves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-hour-getaway-collection) adding to the beauty of the series, the images are full of a lightness and natural chemistry between models Holly Rose and Annemijn that its hard not to get lost in them. Photographer David K Shields captures the models as they enjoy their time on the [secluded shore](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oak-bluffs) with their arms lovingly wrapped around each other. Rose wears [bright red lipstick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren) and styles her hair in a messy blunt bob with bangs to complement Annemijn's perfectly put together bun.

Making a reference to the classic film Casablanca, the Blacklog Editorial No 44 series is finished off with the lovely words "We'll always have Wattamolla."
