Blissful memories! Stumbled upon this gem from year two of my underwater ballet journey and I’m swooning all over again. The blue water is mesmerizing, isn’t it? Love how this close-up shot captures the serenity and beauty of the moment. Can’t wait to dive back in (literally!) and create more magic this year

Cuba—a country that continues to captivate me. After 7 years of working on this photography project, I’m still learning, exploring, and falling in love with the beauty of the island and its people. My latest visit was full of unforgettable moments: rolling ci**rs, learning the art of cigar smoking, wandering through the stunning landscapes of Viñales, and visiting Cria Cuervo, the incredible mosaic restaurant and bar in Fusterlandia created by the talented José Fusterland.

Just returned from my fourth trip to Cuba and I’m still reflecting on the incredible experiences I had. Over the past seven years, I’ve been working on a collaborative photography book with Iovanni Perez, a Cuban tour guide, and Liz Devitt, an American writer. While Liz wasn’t able to join us this time, she was with us on the last trip, and her voice continues to be a vital part of the project.

This past week was truly special. We brought 250 pounds of supplies to donate—including baseball equipment for a former pro player who now coaches teens, basketballs and shoes for a youth coach, and essential toiletries and clothing. More than anything, the heart of this trip was the people. I had the privilege of having real conversations with Cubans from all walks of life, and their warmth and resilience left a lasting impression on me.

Cuba, you have my heart.
