Vegas by Marie Schmidt tells the story of a young girl in Vegas during a warm summer day. The background is full of blue skies, palm trees and partially constructred apartment buildings.
The photographer, who was also the stylist, adorned the model in stunning dresses, shorts and tops in pastels and neons. The model Christine Unruh from Envy Models Las Vegas did her own makeup by adding smokey black eyeliner, golden bronzer and shimmery bronze eyeshadow.
The late afternoon sun made the model’s skin shimmer in the light, and it created both an intimate and alluring effect. The photographer has taken a different approach to this series by capturing the beauty of the famous city during the day instead of at night.
