BTS: 'The Rivercrossing'
Being our most 'fashion' based style within the new range, we needed to create a shoot that displayed this but still maintained our Ringers Western flare.
No better model than the stunning, Kimberley Busteed - Kim is one of the most humble and down-to-earth women on the planet & suited the 'Rivercrossing' to her core. We were extremely lucky to have Kim and her beautiful family welcome us to their property in Arababy, Queensland to shoot over the most spectacular Friday afternoon.
Upon arrival, we pulled into the driveway of their white fenced home, greeted by Kim & Chris, their three young kids Evie, Victoria and Jack and Labrador pup, Bill.
While Kim and Chris are living out the ultimate dream, it hasn't come without hard work. Chris as a former professional cricket player and Kim as former Miss Universe, now run a successful first-generation cattle property, all while maintaining their successful personal careers - Kim is still a presenter on Channel 7's Creek to Coast and Weekender as well as assisting Chris with his company, 'Cultivative Agri Partnerships'.
To commence the shoot, we chucked the ute into 4WD and ventured through the rolling hills of the picturesque property. Through the back forty of grazing cattle, and even down to their very own waterfall, Kim was in her element the entire time as she guided us through, stopping every now and then for the perfect shot.
Later in the evening, we headed back up to the highest point on the property and got some incredible content as the sun dropped behind the hills. While still considerably windy, this well & truely worked in our favour.
Full of class, style and a lots of grit, Kimberley Busteed was undoubtedly the perfect campaign ambassador for our Rivercrossing hat - embodying everything that it was designed for.
