This style is a great option if you are self-conscious about your arms. It's still flowy and comfortable but designed to hide anything you don't want highlighted.

A great color! And perfect choice if you'd prefer a little more shoulder coverage. Sometimes these types of cap sleeves aren't ideally for windy days. Try some fashion tape to hold them down if necessary.

We love a pattern! This color isn't always our first choice, but for sessions against black lava rocks - reds and oranges really pop in all the right aways. A high neck line like this is also very flattering and photographs so well.
