They are in Nassau, but not with the same photographer.

She is and it seems they aren’t worried about it. https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2019/02/13/kelsey-merritt-si-swimsuit-rookie-2019

Looks like they are using a new photographer this year too! https://instagram.com/larettahouston?utm_source=ig_profile_share&igshid=1tna7ismi4qvr

http://belmontvision.com/2019/02/belmont-freshman-to-model-in-sports-illustrated-swimsuit-issue/ Raine says the model search shoot will be this month, too. Also, she said there are only 25 girls in the magazine. Not sure how correct that is considering we know of 17 from the models and rookies already and 6 more for the model search. So that would mean only 2 more in the issue...

https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2018/10/16/si-swimsuit-2019-model-reveals “Follow along on the journey as, for the first time ever, we reveal the identities of (almost) everyone invoved in this year's incredible issue.”

I feel like they have some people they aren’t releasing. Not sure if true, but they did say in the original post that they were only revealing some models for 2019.

They are shooting in the Bahamas, but I wonder with who.

Robin! https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2019/02/05/robin-holzken-si-swimsuit-model-2019-kenya

Anne is next! https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2019/02/04/anne-de-paula-back-sports-illustrated-swimsuit-2019

That was from last year.

Paulina is back! https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2019/01/30/paulina-porizkova-poses-si-swimsuit-2019

https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2018/12/20/haley-kalil-si-swimsuit-2019-rookie-shoot-kenya Kenya is confirmed and Haley shot! It’s all old news though considering they are back already.

I think they were a part of the shoot. It looks like you can see a model in this video.

When they did interviews about the issue moving to May, they said MJ did the interview via phone from a secret location in more than one article. The other locations aren’t a secret, so it’s likely that whatever Yu’s location is is being kept secret. The shoot is over by now so they would all be back in NY, and if they posted things that were of them in NY from the last week, it is likely due to them trying to keep it a secret. And in the original article about them revealing models this year, they said only some would be revealed. Edit... SI crew started following this guy on instagram. Looks like they were in Kenya. Is this Anne?

I think it has to do something with Paulina still. I don’t know why she would need 10 days for one shoot though.

Could Halima Aden be a possibility? Yu just started following her on Instagram

James Macari is also in the Philippines.

https://www.si.com/swim-daily/2019/01/11/sports-illustrated-swimsuit-issue-moving-may-2019 Well, it is official!

What are the odds of Paulina coming back?

They have been doing shoots for two weeks lately, so that seems right.

Yu is the next photographer on this location.
