Jamaica Nice! Craving Good Vibes Campaign Shoot
Traveling to Jamaica to shoot my first Craving Good Vibes Ad Campaign was a magical experience! A born Jamaican, my life has always been surrounded by the islands love for good vibes, good eats, and good style.
Jamaicans created the dancehall movement, the energy of dancehall has always been associated with good vibrations ! You haven’t experienced a good dancehall party until you’ve partied till sunrise! I live for creating good memories! Going back home always excites me because I love my culture and the vibes!
Authentic Jamaican food in abundance always satisfy my foodie soul! Traveling home and being able to indulge in all my favorite foods and restaurants throughout the island is an amazing foodie treat! The peppers used for the Caribbean spicy tee is inspired by Jamaican scotch bonnet peppers! An extremely spicy pepper, the peppers are essential in every Jamaican household. The peppers are vibrantly colorful and gives an island flair to traditional Caribbean dishes. I was excited to shoot at Miss T’s Kitchen in Ocho Rios! The restaurant was the perfect location to set the tone for an amazing shoot! The moment you set foot onto the grounds at Miss T’s Kitchen, you are immediately greeted with a beautiful ambiance of bright colors. The red, green, and yellow colors throughout the restaurant was the perfect accent added to the modern island decor. The restaurant’s signature Jerk Chicken dinner, a bowl of hearty chicken soup, stuffed crab back, and an ice cold Red Stripe beer was added as photo props to capture the Style, Food, and Vibes moment! Special thanks to Miss T, Anastasia, and all the good vibes employees at Miss T’s Kitchen! The love everyone showed during our shoot was truly a blessing I will never forget! #Onelove
Cool drinks and the Caribbean papaya women’s shirt was captured at the Hibiscus Lodge Hotel in Ocho Rios. The view at the restaurant is breathtaking! Absolutely beautiful! Pairing a few of the hotels signature cocktails with the Caribbean papaya shirt gives you the perfect island style vibe. The backdrop of the beautiful Caribbean sea compliments the bold colors of the Caribbean papaya shirt. Thanks again to the staff at Hibiscus Lodge Hotel for allowing myself and the crew to shoot on the property! #Bigups
Sharkies in Runaway Bay is the ultimate spot to catch a nice vibes, while indulging in a variety of mouthwatering seafood dishes! This was the last stop to an amazing day filled with teamwork, good vibe energy, and gratitude. The location is nestled right off the main road next to the beach. It doesn’t get any better than eating fresh seafood while overlooking the beautiful Caribbean Sea! The staff was nothing less than good vibe energy, and the manger, Mr. Leon Jones was a pleasure to meet and speak with. A cool colada drink with a pineapple garnish, extra crispy fried snapper, and curry shrimp were the dishes used in the campaign shoot. The Caribbean pineapple button shirt, crop shirt, and Spicy tee were shot on the beach at Sharkies. It was truly a blast and another great memory for the books! #Nufflove
This experience would have not been possible without the services of the team I worked with. Not only did we come to work, we also had the best mini vacey vibes ever! It doesn’t feel like work when you’re at the beach , enjoy great food, and tour the Ocho Rios community! Being able to experience this moment with some great hardworking females was dope and set the bar for the next amazing Craving Good Vibes Shoot . Much respect to each of you! Enjoy the pics my stylish foodies!!
