Edgy Desert Pics

How captivating are these desert portraits, photographed by The Image Is Found, and styled by Angel of Events of Love and Splendor?

 

I was asked to create a bouquet for the shoot.  Something a bit rough and "desertish".  

I envisioned something dry and spiky, so I gathered various dried pods, dried fungi, twigs, and balsa wood flowers into a wild bouquet, and wrapped it all up with rope. I also strung some pearls onto the twigs to make the whole thing just a little bit bridal.  Yay for bouquets that never wilt!  BTW, how awesome is that bolero tie that Angel made in my garage at the last minute?
