Texas Beach

Hello! These are a few more photos from my shoot on Tuesday with Nicholas Von Thrower. Again, the photos turned out incredible and I am extremely grateful that he wanted to take them. Nicholas is definitely an up-and-coming Richmond photographer to watch out for. 

We shot the photos along the river at Texas Beach. Whenever I go to the river here in Richmond, I tend to either go to Belle Isle or Pony Pasture. Before Tuesday, I had actually never been to Texas Beach. But the second we started walking on the Texas Beach trail to the river, I instantly fell for Texas Beach. It is incredibly gorgeous and a lot quieter/calmer than Belle Isle. This will definitely be the spot that I head for on my next river excursion. 

For the photos, I slipped on my black one-piece. I'm usually more of a bikini girl but the low back and plunging neckline of this swimsuit are too flattering to resist. Of course, I love the simple black color and basic style. This swimsuit has actually been in rotation for several summers now but I love it too much to give it up. Luckily, I haven't outgrown it!

I styled the swimsuit with a black circle skirt for a cute, retro look. Tortoiseshell round sunglasses and a pile of rings completed the simple, river look. 

A big thanks to Nicholas Von Thrower for taking these photos! Be sure to check him out on Instagram @fireballwhiskeyprince.
