On the Run

oh.my.gosh.
I can't freaking believe I didn't post these pictures! All this time I have been mentally lamenting the fact that I never remember to update this blog and I've been sitting on a veritable goldmine of photo shoot fantasticness. The only reprieve I have is the fact that I have several shoots that I haven't posted and therefore will have quite a few days worth of new material.

OK, so after a slap of the palm to the forehead (I still can't believe I forgot to post these!), here are some recent shots I did with the amazing Mr. Peter Van Beever.

This series is called On the Run. Ashley, the model, literally ran the entire time in order to capture images with lots of action and movement. My job was fairly easy - natural makeup, grind dirt into her skin every now and then, add a sweat sheen to make her look really tired, rat and tease the hair from time to time. Enjoy!!

I wish I looked that good after a dirty and sweaty run! Good grief - she looks beautiful! Nice work Amy, as always.
