The photoshoot was inspired by Paige's upcoming move to California. With the wind in her hair and [sun on her back](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-hour-getaway-collection), Paige drove to Tobay Beach in New York, where the duo spent the day enjoying each other's company. The [affection, love and friendship](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-friendship-bus) between Li and Paige is evident in every photograph, even though only Paige is pictured. There's a closeness, an intimacy, that simply cannot be faked. Li explains, "The beauty of our friendship is that I don’t have to see her all the time; we meet up once a year, but we chat like it was yesterday. Our next shoot, California, Summer 2015.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.4/10 - Popularity: 4% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Patriotic Road Trip Editorials:** Opportunity for brands to create unique road trip-inspired editorials to capture the adventurous spirit of young consumers. ### Where This Applies - **Photography:** Photographers can offer road trip editorial shoots as a unique and personalized service to clients. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can incorporate road trip themes into their collections, tapping into the nostalgia and free-spiritedness of the open road. - **Travel:** Travel companies can create road trip packages that offer unique and off-the-beaten-path experiences, appealing to adventure-seeking travelers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Travel Lifestyle Brand Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-changed-me.md) - [Personal Nostalgic Photo Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holy-ohio.md) - [California-Inspired Apparel Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boys-lie-license-plate.md) - [British Youth-Culture Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-and-away.md) - [Culturally-Inspired Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-travel-campaign.md) - [Summer-Inspired Photo Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/summer-dreaming-collection.md) - [Mobile Tea Pop-Up Trucks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandy-liang-2.md) - [Playful Limited-Edition Travel Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/neely-chloe.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md)
