After months without rain — wouldn't ya know it? — sprinkles started to fall on the first day of the two-day fashion shoot at North restaurant and Hacienda del Sol Guest Ranch Resort. Even that and a near-death experience for one of the models — a vintage VW bus — couldn't dampen things.

Thanks to our human models: Taylor Graham, Joy Wilcox, Karen Hanshaw, Amy and Annabelle Kish, Ché Wilson, Leah Kizis, Tanyia Cardi and Monet Forbes.

And special thanks to Erica Gentry, of Maria Martin boutique, who dolled everyone up with Vogue-worthy makeup and hair. She used products by Smashbox Cosmetics, Scott Barnes, Paula Dorf, Skin Alison Raffaele and DuWop, all at Maria Martin boutique.
