A Secret Garden in the City
Posted on February 06 2018
It's always difficult finding places in New York City to take dreamy photographs. There is, however, in the East Village a secret paradise known as The Community Gardens. These are small gardens that belong to the people that live in the neighborhood, some people have their own plots and can...

A Mermaid at Home
Posted on June 19 2017
The Seashell House is so special to me, not just because I have devoted the last 6 years to mermaid imagery and inspiration but because of it's story and location as well. This house is located on the small island of Isla Mujeres close to my home town of Cancun,...

Inspiration and BTS for "Castaway Siren"
Posted on March 08 2017
So many times the best things happen unplanned. Hana had come down to Cancun to shoot the summer collection and we had an extra day before we started. I wanted to do an extension of Spring with more fishnet and spiral shell styles and all I knew was that I wanted something...

New kid in town

Lost in L.A.
Posted on February 22 2017
As much as I love New York and living here it suits me much better than L.A., I will admit that LA wins on the visual part hands down. Pink buildings everywhere and wildflowers in bloom on the sidewalks... the wide open spaces and big houses make me wonder what...
The making of Sink Into Pink
Posted on December 22 2016
I probably say this about every shoot we do but up until now "Sink Into Pink" has been my favorite campaign. It combines so many of my favorite things: a strange and majestic place in nature, dreaminess, and the color pink. Not to mention my home country, Mexico and a...
