Idaho Cowgirl she wanted some pictures with her horses. No makeup, just messin around on the porch.

Hey Zoomer,
I'm guessing you meant without her horse:)

ok I have seen this beautiful lady before and she really is quite stunning.
The thing that I find odd here is that I find her neck looks pretty thick. Now either it is kind of thick and you downplayed that in previous shots or this is an odd angle.

As to the no make up..I don't buy it--or at least I don't want to buy it

Great location for a shoot.

No we shot her with both her horses this was just the warmup waiting for the sun to go down a bit.
I think she has a bit of mascara on. Her skin is not the best, I cleaned it up.

She is a real cowgirl and has some shoulders on her from moving hay bales around and riding and general working with the horses. You can really see on this shot:

Zoomer, I like the setting and lighting you have, as I generally do.

Not a big fan of the pose, (the slightly down the nose look -- with her head tilted a bit up).
Really wish the Adirondack chair were real wood, too...

What a combination of strength, and exquisite beauty in a real woman.

PS: My new love is cowgirls.

A documentary-style series of this woman actually at work would be gorgeous (and something you could definitely sell to the right magazine).

What a knockout, great lighting, color and posing.....great stuff, more please.

At the risk of sounding like a creeper, that second shot, the girl, the pose and expression is just plain HOT.

I am most impressed by the absence of shadow under that huge hat.

Icebear · January 13, 2012

Wow, Mike.
And I hear you, Bryce.
You too, Sam.

I'm with Liz: I'm seeing liner, shadow, mascara, and a bit of blush (not sure about the cheeks, but the eyes really do look made up). It may be what she wears every day, but unless she has dyed lashes/tattoo liner, that seems unlikely definition somebody that blonde/blue-eyed

Doesn't matter a toss though - simply lovely images. That 2nd one is stunning. And I agree with Brett - would make a great magazine spread!

zoomer · January 13, 2012

Ok I probably should not do this but here is a completely unretouched shot...I am not going to leave this up long...
If you ladies tell me she is wearing makeup I will believe you but to me it looks like she just has on some mascara.

Well, she's gorgeous au naturale, but you can help a bit.
The world has more than enough Barbies. She's the real deal.

wow #2 is fantastic. Not digging the pose/angle on #1. Looks like a little foundation and mascara but not seeing much as far as eyeliner or shadow.

divamum · January 13, 2012

Did you run it through PP? It looks like there is a LOT more "makeup" in the shot you showed us first - did the program add it? To me there's so much eye definition in #2 it actually looks like she's wearing false eyelashes. Don't get me wrong - it looks really good - but it doesn't look like "no makeup", which the SOOC clearly does!

Can we compromise on calling it "digital makeup"?

zoomer · January 13, 2012

No doubt I helped out....when I said no makeup....I meant she wasn't wearing any and it was just a casual shoot.
Yes ran through PP....digital makeup works

Zoomer, your're realy stepping it up, gonna make us old guys work harder. Thanks for the push!!

Tinstafl · January 21, 2012

Great shots, I love the taste of summer in the middle of the winter.

Bilsen · January 22, 2012

Just saw this Zoomer.

I like the first one a lot. Did you use fill to get under that hat?

Second one, she's still pretty but the cowgirl shoulders don't look great to me. Maybe turn her a bit?

VayCayMom · January 23, 2012

I see plenty of make up!!!
