If you’ve been to our home (or just seen pictures online!), you know we have a serious thing for Slim Aarons, an American photographer known for capturing “attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places” in the 1960s and 1970s. We have two oversized prints in our living room as well as two smaller prints in our dining nook. I get more questions about where to buy Slim Aarons prints than almost anything else in our house! We purchased ours on One Kings Lane a couple years ago and sadly they no longer sell them, but I’ve tracked down a few other places online that still carry prints of his work. I’ve also rounded up a number of pieces by different photographers with a similar vibe so you can achieve the same look no matter what budget you’re working with. I hope this helps!

Here’s where to buy Slim Aarons prints online:
If you’re looking for more affordable options, I would look into the work of other photographers like Ghislain and Marie David de Lossy, Gray Malin, Matteo Colombo, Natalie Obradovich, Thurston Hopkins, and Tom Kelley. Here are a few of my Slim Aarons-inspired favorites:

Enjoy! 🙂
Thank you so very much fro sharing these purchasing options. These prints appear super expensive, and yet you have shown us some really affordable solutions. I have just purchased 3 of them. Beautiful ladies poolside next to a Neutra Home ins Palm Springs. My dream. I love the images and the story behind the man who has taken them.
I clicked on Floating Woman so fast. Definitely need for my bedroom right above my desk… Great picks Mackenzie!

I say every year I’m going to buy myself a Slim Aarons print for my birthday… maybe this year I’ll actually follow through! In the meantime, we have the Tennis Couple hanging above our bed. We were Skyping with our well-intentioned in-laws one time, they asked if it was ME in the picture. Hardly! 😉
I love this post, Mackenzie! You always have the best taste in art. I bought Pool in Bordeaux when you recommended it a few years ago and I love it! It’s so bright and fun.
Ahh isn’t it the best? Such beautiful colors. Thank you!
Hi Mackenzie or Elana,
Could you please tell me where I could buy the Pool in Bordeaux print?
Cheers
Amanda
Hi Amanda, I responded to your first comment earlier today with a link to the print. Enjoy 🙂
