Sisters are embracing the enchanting world of mermaids, and it’s hard not to be captivated! Two adorable sisters from Iowa, Mia and Lila Thompson, are here to showcase what true mermaid magic looks like. With their infectious energy, they’re making waves in the realm of mermaid fandom.
These imaginative girls, aged five and four, share a deep fascination with mermaids. Their mother, Tara Thompson, recalls, “They are absolutely obsessed with mermaids!” Inspired by a picture she stumbled upon featuring mermaid tails, she thought, “How amazing would a mermaid shoot be?” That was the spark that ignited the creative process.
Tara reached out to her friend and photographer, Emma Clark, from Emma’s Photography in Des Moines, to bring the vision to life. “I had never done a mermaid shoot before,” Emma admits, laughing. “When Tara texted me about it, I had no clue what she meant!” After receiving a reference image of girls dressed as mermaids—a trend popular on social media—Emma decided to dive in, despite it not initially aligning with her typical style.
Working collaboratively, they began piecing together their mermaid fantasy. They borrowed a treasure chest and spent days gathering seashells, purchasing pearl necklaces, and hunting for faux gold coins. “I shared my ideas with Tara, and she put in a tremendous amount of effort to make it happen,” Emma explains. As the mermaid tails arrived, the shoot began to take shape beautifully.
The resulting photos encapsulate pure joy, wonder, and sisterly love. Once the shoot concluded, Emma realized her initial doubts were unfounded. “I finally confessed to Tara that I was wrong about the idea being cheesy—I absolutely loved it!” she shared.
Emma has a portfolio filled with fun and imaginative shoots, including adorable newborn sessions and unique themed shoots. Now, she can proudly add this whimsical mermaid shoot to her collection.
Mermaids hold a special allure for many girls and women, symbolizing something magical and other-worldly, disconnected from everyday life. While some days we might feel more like sea witches, wouldn’t it be wonderful to embrace a mermaid spirit, even if only for a moment? These sisters are showing us how to live that dream.
