Camille & Stephanie

Here are some photos from a shoot I had a few weeks ago with Camille and Stephanie. These girls were so easy and fun to work with, I didn't even have to direct them that much, their coolness and beauty are simply natural.

We had a really great time shooting this story for one of my friend's (Maria) project for her class. She had to create a magazine, and this was part of the editorial content. I'm so glad with the results, hope you like them!

-Special thanks to Raquel and Maria, you rock-

Weekend x Classic Specs

Guys... You know my weakness for a good piece of eyewear, right? Well, something amazing happened this past weekend.

I was so honored when Classic Specs -a new eyewear company based in Brooklyn- wanted to do a collaboration with me. I was guest posting at their Instagram feed for the whole weekend.

They sent these super cool Amherst Sunglasses to shoot still life series and lifestyle photos with them. I also took them around town, to showcase my favorite places in the city. I had a lot of fun! Head over their Instagram to see how the photos turned out!

Taste

Ok, first thing: I'm so excited I'm back to food photography! It's not like you will see a lot of that on my blog (ok, maybe on my Instagram). But I have to tell you, it's amazing to work with such talented people. I just love it!

Ok, now: Last weekend, I went to a super cool gastronomic event called Taste, As you may know, I have a ridiculous love for food, so, now you imagine how much I loved the event. Well ok, let me tell you how much I liked it.

On Saturday, we had a cooking show with the French/Spanish chef Mikel Alonso, who has a restaurant in Mexico called Biko. He showed us a lot of interesting: from culinary techniques to really interesting theories. Here's one of the plates he cooked, which was amazing.

On Sunday, we had a cooking show with three talented chefs from our country (which I admire, and I'm very lucky to work with) Jacqueline Henriquez, Leandro Díaz and Ana Lebron. Each one of them cooked different recipes in such a great and easy way. Here's what Leandro created:

Ok, you probably saw a picture of that on Insta too. But I just wanted to show you the one I took my camera, you can really appreciate all the details, and it looked (and tasted) wonderful!

After that, Ana got on the stage and cooked a delicious dessert called arroz con leche, which is very popular in my country. She kind of reinvented it, using different ingredients and cooking it in a very modern way. Here's how it turned out, and Jacqueline's creation on the right, which was wonderful as well:

Well, that's all folks! I had such a great time there. But now, this post is already too long, and it also made me a bit hungry. Ok yeah, I'll try not to make a mess in the kitchen now. Bye! xx

The watch

Happy Saturday folks!

Here's a still life shot with my new Daniel Wellington watch. Such a classic piece! isn't it? I'm loving it so far. Mine is a men's Classic Sheffield on Silver. The minimal design of this watch is simply perfect (ahhh, you know me). The face is so thin, which makes it super easy to wear and that's something I just love!

Oh, by the way; The folks at Daniel Wellington were nice enough to create a discount code for you guys! You can use 'victorstonem' to get 15% off of all their products! (valid until October 15)
