Big things are going to happen for this girl! Watch out for gorgeous Ellie Martin of Next LA, photographed by Jeffrey Chan in Vasquez Rocks, California. Make-up and hair done by Meghan Nguy.

“I shot this series in mid-June, north of LA at Vasquez Rocks.  It’s famous for being the location of a Star Trek TV episode back in the 60s.  Somewhat of an alien landscape.  I’ve always liked the setting, the desert colours & vegetation, plus it’s only an hour drive from LA.  I enjoy shooting in the desert because of the colours and the solitude of the place.  And why not bikinis in the desert?  It was super hot that day. I chose simple bikinis to make for a fun & playful vibe to go with Ellie’s awesome energy, plus some high tops.”
