Swimsuit by the numbers

Andy Gray | Aug 5, 2013

At SwimDaily, we're often asked what goes on behind the scenes of a SI photo shoot. So with a 2014 shoot beginning this week, Janine Berey, the editorial coordinator for SI Swimsuit, let us film as she packed up the swimsuit closet for the trip. She also provided a detailed numerical breakdown of a shoot. Here's what she came up with:

2 - boxes of jewelery

3 - trunks full of clothes

4 - extra large duffel bags

12 - members of crew (including four models)

20 - pairs of shoes

650 - total swimsuits

1,500 - dollars spent on oversized baggage charges

7,000 - total miles traveled to and from destination
