We recently hired three mermaids from Making Mermaids for an underwater advertising campaign, and we couldn’t be more impressed! From the moment they arrived, it was clear we were working with true professionals. Their tails were of the highest quality—visually stunning and incredibly lifelike on camera. What really set them apart was their ability to perform effortlessly underwater. Our photographer was amazed at how they could immediately adapt to the environment, striking graceful poses and delivering exactly what we needed without hesitation. Their experience as freedivers and underwater performers made the entire shoot seamless, allowing us to capture breathtaking shots without delays.
