One day I got an e-mail from fellow photographer Brian C. Janes asking me if I was interested in shooting a couples shoot for some friends of his since he would be busy with his current project All That Glitters, I said hell ya. And when he said they were interested in shooting at the Salton Sea, I said HELLZ YA!

I have always wanted to shoot at the Salton Sea. The dead salt-encrusted fish, the creepy abandoned houses and that smell. If that doesn't scream romance I don't know what does. Seriously, it's the perfect landscape.

Jade and Charlie are a beautiful couple whose love for each other is apparent but against that post-apocalyptic atmosphere it became magical. I had an amazing time with these two.
