Since it was a fall editorial, I created a look with golds, russets, oranges, browns, and reds. Some key products I used were Dolce Vita Velvet Matte lip pencil from NARS, Exhibit A blush from NARS (careful with this color, just a teeny-tiny dab will go a loooong ways!) and True Gold pigment from Bare Escentuals. **Please note, I'm not a huge fan of mineral makeup in general for photo shoots or brides but this particular eyeshadow is a shade too pretty for even me to pass up!** Hair was kept loose and messy, almost as if Thalia, our stunning model, had just taken a good roll in the hay.

And, just for fun, here's a picture I grabbed off of Rebecca's site that really lets you in on all the behind the scenes action. You didn't really think all that glorious dust was by chance, now did you?
