Tairua Dippers

05 Nov 2024

What a huge privilege it was to photograph this engaging group of ladies as they took their morning swim in 15-degree water at Tairua Beach on Labour Weekend Friday.

The idea originated from a conversation I had with one of our suppliers, Get it On, and a former employee, Maree, in Tairua. I had agreed to organize an event with Maree to raise funds for Project Mammogram (PM), an initiative aiming to gather $350,000 to purchase a mammogram machine for the women on the Coromandel Coast. With PM needing just $30,000 more to reach their goal, I was happy to help. Through this connection with Maree, I began thinking about additional ways to raise money, and the idea of a calendar featuring the Tairua dippersβ€”women we knew would look fabulous in our Annah Stretton swimwearβ€”came to life.

Thankfully, the ladies were all on board, and so seven brave women joined Sami and me on the beach at 7 a.m. for the shoot. It was a fantastic experience, with everyone open to trying a variety of looks and poses. As a token of appreciation, I was delighted to gift them the swimwear they wore during the shoot.

Of course, I’d love to create a full calendar of them for 2025, but that’s a conversation for another dayβ€”and would require securing five more ladies to fill all twelve months with beach beauty!
