Deserted Beauty by Maximilian Rivera is a story about a young girl who is alone in the American Southwest desert. Maximillian Rivera captured the beautiful Codi Babcock from M Model Management as the sun was setting in the barren plains of Southern California.

Stylist Jen Summers adorned the model in long dresses, [cowboy boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melissa-x-maldito), warm sweaters and [tribal accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alanah-jewell) from her Muheeka line and from [Free Agency Showroom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fp-movement). This is Codi Babcock's third story for Ben Trovato, and she is pictured with a beautiful brown horse, and in various seductive poses alone in the desert.

Summers was inspired by horse ranches in SoCal to create a cowboy-themed and rustic rancher look. Mazimillian Rivera is a Florida-based professional fashion photographer who primarily shoots fashion, editorial and beauty.
