Adam and I decided to shoot the Modernist pieces I have been making as a way to broaden interest in my jewelry. My turquoise pieces are often seen as regional to the Southwest US where I live. The Modernist pieces are also viewed as “younger” pieces more interesting to an affluent professional young woman who has interest in jewelry as a piece of collectible art than an after thought kind of accent. My work is generally sought after by women who are buying jewelry for themselves, who are interested in making a statement with jewelry and are comfortable in wearing bold pieces. Jewelry which will get noticed, not fade into the background. Powerful women comfortable with their own sense of style. This description includes my immediate family so I am comfortable working with strong points of view and not being shy about giving my own point of view right back.
Anyway, enough about me, look at the photography for it’s technical prowess, the models who have their own personalities which shine through and all captured by Adam’s camera and love of light. And look at the jewelry too.
Leah is wearing one of my Martian Cuffs in 18K gold and sterling. That Adam is able to get the color of the golds ( I used 3 colors of gold, yellow, red and green) and her eye shadow with out any reflection in the bracelet is amazing. That Leah has not posed to look unnatural is amazing. This is a premium shot. It all comes together in this shot.
This is another amazing shot in black and white with Angie wearing one of my Circle cuffs.
One last one of Leah wearing the Martian in black and white. These shots represent weeks of work to get scheduling and light and photography all right. Thank you Adam, Leah and Angie.

What bracelet? (;-))
love the shot with models and your new work! I’m pretty picky about both and this work is a sign of great taste. audrita in new mexico.
Super hot photos although I think it’s the bracelet that makes the girl in this instance.
Really interesting to see these photos. Thank you. The cuffs look amazing! It really is worth getting someone in who knows their craft.
