Back at Roy's

Posted on Monday, July 31, 2017

Hello!
This editorial is one that I have been saving to publish. When visiting my grandparents in Palm Desert we decided to drive through the desert to this abandon motel in Amboy, California called Roy's. There was something haunting about the white vacant rooms and the etched messages written all over the closet walls. The ghostly 1950's presence is well alive throughout the area with several abandon little houses scattered along the highway. When styling this shoot I wanted to focus on contrasting old and new. Danielle is wearing a vintage gown with a pair of suede sneakers and a modern silver choker. Additionally, I am wearing a mens shirt with a waspie corset and platform shoes. I hope you enjoy this shoot!

Cheers!
