Kamie Crawford was photographed in St. Croix by Derek Kettela last year for her rookie SI Swimsuit feature. For her sophomore appearance in the magazine, the model and TV host traveled to Dominica, where she was photographed by Yu Tsai for the 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue.

The former Miss Teen USA currently serves as host of Are You The One? on Paramount+, as well as MTV’s Ex on the Beach. She also hosts her own weekly podcast, Relationsh*t With Kamie Crawford, where she dishes out realistic relationship advice.

During the magazine’s launch week events last year, Crawford spoke about her rookie status and noted that her initial experience working with the brand was nothing but positive.

“I don’t think I realized until I became a part of the team what a family it is,” Crawford told SI Swimsuit at the time. “Everyone is so sweet. Everyone is so nice. Everyone is so encouraging.”

This year, Crawford’s photo shoot in the Caribbean was inspired by elements of Mother Nature, including earthy color palettes and lots of natural texture. Below are eight of our favorite photos from the 30-year-old’s photo shoot in Dominica.
