Adventures in the Al Capone Suite at The Biltmore

Okay, so it was actually only one adventure and probably “adventure” isn’t even the right word to use, but to say I was excited about shooting in the Al Capone Suite at The Biltmore — where a scene from one of my old school favorite movies, Bad Boys, was shot — is definitely an understatement. Thanks to Andrew Bryant Photography, I was sent to Miami to shoot with and learn from some awesome photographers, including Ray Santana, Becker, Kenny Kim, Kenny Nakai and Lawrence Chan (SEO guru, Tofurious). It was great to see how these guys and the rest of the photographers worked and shot and feel like we all learned a lot from each other. Besides the fact that we were in one of the most beautiful cities, at one of the most famous hotels in the world, with gorgeous models, what made it extra special was the good people that were there. Anytime I can return to Miami in the fall or winter is a win for me, but coupled it with such a wonderful experience made my trip perfect.

French Polynesia: Bora Bora

After Moorea, we island hopped over to Bora Bora and just like Moorea, saying it was beautiful was an understatement. To be honest, I am not exactly sure my photos even show the real beauty of these islands. The mountain that is in just about all of these photos is called Otemanu, and can be seen from just about anywhere in Bora Bora, including from our over water bungalow!

French Polynesia: Moorea

For our honeymoon we went to a couple islands in the French Polynesia. First we stopped in Moorea, which is about a 10 minute flight from Tahiti. Moorea is just too beautiful. Taking photos there is so easy, but choosing your favorite ones is ridiculously hard! All things considered though, that isn’t so bad! I wish I had more time to explore the island and shoot at different places, but after all, I was on my honeymoon! Anyway, here are just a few of my favorites and if you want to see more or buy a print, check out the gallery. Photos from Bora Bora will be coming soon!
