Give me Venice any day. I love the boardwalk, the colors, the vibes, the different types of people- all contributing to the aura of the moment. Golden sunlight filtering through the palms, music drifting through the air, high fives with strangers… I love it all. Even the crazy colorful souls that sometimes invite themselves into the scene! It’s all an ongoing experience that everyone should get a chance to take part in.
When we met up with Samantha for our run and gun shoot for her brand Wings Hawaii, we had no plan for what we wanted. We just wandered around and captured the vibes- this is probably the most casual you’ll see me! I was in love with the oversized comfy flannels that she custom makes, along with all her clothing and jewelry. Venice was Sam’s home town, she currently lives and works from Hawaii (lucky!). It was magical to be the face of this shoot, which was different from her typical branding, and bring it back to her roots and her home town. I love creating authentic and unique moments to be captured forever on camera. The artist in me sometimes strives too hard for creating that vision I had in mind. So it was really fun to let loose and dance around for her campaign. And Venice was the perfect place to do so.
Stay tuned for more from this shoot, and our Venice video!
