It was a perfect day at Vizcaya Villa and Gardens in Miami. Nikki, Micah, Brittany and I were all too excited to start our story, when we received some awful news: We wouldn't be able to shoot ANYWHERE else, BUT the gardens.. Don't get me wrong the gardens are beautiful, but the inside of the house is what attracted me and begged to be shot.

So, we did what any creative would do who strives to bring their vision to life no matter what; we kept quiet and low-key and shot inside the house. What we created is by far one of my favorites thus far.

Oasis

On this sweltering Miami day we find Kenze enjoying some sultry pool time. Enjoying and embracing the heat.

R&R

It was an absolutely gorgeous winter, albeit sweltering, Miami day and I was insanely sick. Holly was visiting all the way from the freezing cold of Toronto to spend a week in the sun. Some 'R&R' if you will. I met with Holly at her hotel, we went over some quick styling and the overall theme of the story I wanted. From there we began shooting one of my favorite stories of the year, so far. Holly has a stunning look I am incredibly happy I was able to capture.

No HMUA, stylists, or art director. Just Holly, my camera, and myself.
