Featured Photoshoot: 'Vintage American Beauty' by Aina Melina

Source: Aina Melina

Aina is a talented and freelance photographer based in Indonesia who is a lover of all things creative, including art, graphic design, and especially photography. Her dreamy work often touches on fictional themes such as fairytales, folklore and magic. 

Aina explains the concept behind her photoshoot featured on the Whim website today, stating: "[It is] inspired by ancient American beauty from old times such as native Indians and cowgirls. My talent and I chose the concept for its vintage and classy appeal, which we personally love. Deriving most of our inspirations from fashion, we decided to work on it from a purely aesthetical point of view, rather than the exact tradition or history."

If you're a lover of spectacular photography such as the images featured above, then you will be sure to find Aina's complete portfolio of work incredibly inspiring.
