Topical Tropical BTS

The greenery deserves its own moment.

Afloral sponsored this shoot and helped transform the space with beautiful florals and greenery that tied the entire vision together. Every arrangement added texture, warmth, and just the right amount of romance.

It was also special to create alongside so many talented Pasifika artists, creatives, and storytellers. Their fingerprints are all over these images, and the shoot is better because of it.

Still one of my favorite collaborations to date.
