The second day of the tour was a full day of haciendas. The first one was discovered by Dasha during a trip where they were scoping out cenotes as she was trying to answer nature’s call. It was a beautiful property that was in the process of being restored. It was pretty much open to the elements, but had a beautiful layout and various interesting rooms. The laborers seemed to find plenty of excuses to be around the area where we were shooting the models.
The second shoot was in a fairly remote area down a long bumpy dirt road. The owner of Hacienda Bolontunil is trying to develop the area and had reached out to Dimitriy after the group’s first bit of notoriety in the media a couple of year’s ago. He wanted to support the arts, and I think also bring some attention to his development project. The main building had some interesting balconies that provided for some interesting shots.
