Behind the Scenes: The First Loleono Photoshoot

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be on set at a photoshoot in Maui, HI? Us too! That’s why we decided to take you behind the scenes of our very first photoshoot. We can’t wait to share the results with you!

I: The Set

We adore the Four Seasons Wailea. Why? Take a look at this backdrop! Loleono founders refer to FSW as “the land of yes,” home to all of your island dreams. When planning our first photoshoot, the set was a no brainer. One more time...do you see this backdrop!?

II: The Concept

Loleono has been an island dream in the making for a decade. Over the years, we’ve developed who we are as a brand, the feelings we want to evoke and a curated collection of clothing, all made with Aloha. We wanted our first shoot to depict the island lifestyle that we love so much--think sunshine, color, laughter and above all? Fun.

III: The Clothes

Remember that Skittles commercial, “See the rainbow, taste the rainbow?” Think of all the joy that brought you and then? Add that island rainbow to your wardrobe. Better? We think so! The Loleono collection is comprised of dresses, skirts, tops, swimwear and resort wear intended to brighten your day and transport you to white sands all. year. long. Catch our drift?

IV: Our Dream Team

Beside our models stunning, natural beauty and incredibly talented group of artists, the entire team was beyond fun to create with. Special thanks to our models: Jazmyn Hogan, Rose Millard, Amber Estrada and Lauren Bedard for sporting our collection (don’t they look amazing?!) Huge thank you to our stylist: Lovia Oliv, HMU: Camille Campbell and our Photographer: Aubrey Hord. Without them, none of this would have been possible. Just look at those pros!
