The '[Pink Motel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rendezvous-apartment)' series by photographer Antonella Arismendi is a scintillating photograph collection that features two scantily clad female models wandering around a [seedy hotel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kimpton-los-monteros-hotel).

The shoot shows the two models going through everyday activities, such as afternoon strolls and getting ready. The models barely wear anything aside from [swimsuits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection), though, as the scene takes place in a hot desert surrounding the Pink Motel. The series also shows the duo in lone shots in which they look pensive and sad.

Antonella Arismendi's series was shot in a yellow light that softened the look of the models and captured the scorching desert well. The Pink Motel series also has a sensual innocence about it that makes it captivating to the viewers and ultimately, makes you long for summer days.
