Gift wrapping with Carlo / PATIOS
This past weekend, I was working on a super cool project with my friends Carlo, Emmanuell and Nelia. The idea was to create Christmas-inspired still life shots for Carlo and Nelia's new book called "PATIOS". PATIOS is Nelia's second book, in co-edition with Carlo. The book explores all the hidden and forgotten backyards in the beautiful Colonial City of Santo Domingo. The photographers (Amadeo Anselin, Nemanja Brankovic, Ricardo Briones and Carlo Reyes) captured such amazing places that I could have never imagined they existed.
For me, this book is on top of my Christmas list. It's such a great source of inspiration. And honestly, after looking at it, I just want to go and explore all these breathtaking places in my beautiful city. Oh, and one of the most beautiful things about this? The sales of the book go to the foundation Abriendo Camino, which works on benefit of the children and teenagers living in Villa Agricola. So yeah guys, it's all for a good cause!

Weekend x Classic Specs II
Part two of my collaboration with Classic Specs!
This time, featuring the Waverly sunglasses in Moss. They're incredibly stunning, I think my favorite frames from Classic Specs, so far. They're made to fit almost any face, which makes them even more perfect. Isn't that great? I mean; to be honest, what else can you ask for?
Okay, anyway... Since I'm actually a little bit camera-shy, I asked my cousin Laura to be my model for this shoot (pardon the iPhone photos). Here she is:
Actually, the sunglasses looked kinda perfect on her, don't you think? We had a lot of fun shooting these photos yesterday. I hope you like them as much as we did :)
