Salton Sea – Trever O’Brien Portrait Shoot

I am in LOVE with the Salton Sea. I had to scout it recently for a trash the dress session I have coming up and so I figured I would drag my brother along and force him to be the subject in a bunch of crazy locations for me, and man did we have fun. [...]
