12 Gorgeous Mermaid Photoshoot Ideas

4. On the rocks

Get your perfect mermaid shots as you lounge on the rocks by the sea — or the pool! We love the idea of renting a space like this private outdoor pool oasis in Montville, NJ so you can get a variety of mermaid shots on the rocks, in the grottos, and under waterfalls.

5. Island seclusion

Spotting mermaids is difficult because they can swim to uncharted territory sailors and tourists never reach! Take your photoshoot to a secluded beach for intimate, serene shots of you looking your best in the most “realistic” mermaid setting you can likely find.

You can even use Peerspace to rent a venue that has its own private beach! For instance, we love this private beach in Fort Lauderdale, FL since it has direct water access, sandy shores, a tiki bar, and other features that make for fun and authentic mermaid shots!

6. The sailor and the mermaid

A mermaid shoot isn’t just for the ladies! We love the idea of a couple’s shoot on a boat — one of you dressed as a mermaid and the other as a sailor. Make sure to get some cute shots of the ‘sailor’ looking longingly at his ‘mermaid’ before she joins him aboard! This not only makes for a fun mermaid photoshoot idea — it’s also a great date night idea.

If you are looking for boat or cruise rentals in the San Francisco area for your photoshoot and date night, make sure to check out the options on Peerspace Guides.   

7. Mermaid boudoir

Let’s be honest — mermaids are sexy! Show off your beauty with a gorgeous mermaid-themed boudoir shoot. This glam bedroom with a mermaid headboard on Peerspace is perfect for a mermaid boudoir shoot! It features a custom-made LED-lit clamshell headboard with a pearl accent. Plus, the ocean mural, faux plants, satiny bedding, and netting up the fun and will enhance your shoot.

8. Poolside with the girls

Mermaid drinks, poolside chats, and an unforgettable photoshoot — it’s time for a girls’ day photoshoot! Invite your closest friends to a mermaid-themed poolside party and photoshoot and enjoy each other’s company in true mermaid style! Lounge around a gorgeous tiki pool, feel fancy at a luxury infinite pool, or book an exotic outdoor space with a pool for your party and pics.

On Peerspace you can easily book a pool location for under $100 an hour, learn more about the options and how to book here! 

9. The pearl inside

Looking for newborn-specific mermaid photoshoot ideas? How about newborn photos of your baby inside a large clam? A prop like this one on Etsy is a fun and unique way to show off your newborn “pearl.”
