I want to become a society lady Rockin' a new rock?!

Lady Grey, if you aren’t aware, is a bit of a literature buff, so when today’s photographer, Natalie Shelton, sent us a quote by author Steve Dobell, we knew it was a perfect way to start off today’s inspiration:

Many years ago, I began spending time alone in the desert, thinking I would arrive at some understanding of it. I have learned many facts, but the mystery of the desert has only become deeper. It sulks and glows in the outrageous openness of the land. It inhabits the extremes of gentleness and harshness, soft colors and hard light, hot ground and cold shadows, endurance and vulnerability, loveliness and aloofness. These are what draw me to the desert, and what I have tried to paint and write about.” Steve Dobell

If you are lover of the southwest, or if this quote just now made you one, then we know you’ll love the inspiration for today’s gorg shoot!
