Mining Minerals

This series of photos started as a concept from a good friend of mine that needed photos for a project in her advertising class. Her project was do do a faux advertising campaign for her chosen company. She picked Bare Minerals makeup and wanted to have the models "mining the makeup." For the shoot we went to the mountains east of Albuquerque and shot on a hillside, I later changed the color of the rocks in post to mimic the color of the models eye liner. This shoot couldn't have been possible with out Kata Baron and Britney-Rae Sanchez doing the make up. Maxwell Duryea was also immense in this shoot helping with everything from schlepping gear to helping compose and shooting photos of his own.
