I photographed the Brass Ball Bobber Model 1 for Darwin Motorcycles and this photo was used on the cover of the May 2009 issue of Ride Oklahoma. We were going after a “Rosie the Riveter” look and chose Emily Murray as our model. She has the look that really makes this picture work. I wanted to highlight the bike as the main subject, yet give the picture more interest with a pretty girl and a theme.
