From a Global Brand’s Point of View: Palawan is THE Best Island in the World

Hot off the press just a few days ago, a cover shoot for Travel + Leisure Magazine by travel photographer, Francisco (Paco) Guerrero, Nadine Lima is our model and fashion styling by yours truly….

The major difference with styling for Travel + Leisure compared to other magazines is that wardrobe is meant to enhance the location as opposed to an ensemble that pops out. People may think it’s an easier job to keep it simple, but to me it’s rather more of a different discipline. I love the fact that I was able to customize swimsuits for this shoot with the help of my friends out at KYCS.

This shoot I’m extremely proud to be a part of as this world’s leading travel magazine brand has just dubbed our Philippines’ Palawan as THE best island in the world!

The proof is more obvious on the inside…

See what else makes their list in their annual World’s Best Awards. This issue would hopefully hit newsstands worldwide within this week.

For travel lovers and Pinoy priders, this is a definite must-have!

Kudos to Paco Guerrero for constantly putting Philippines on the map. The last cover shoot we worked together on was for Travel + Leisure SEA with Joey Mead on the cover and shot on location at the Fairmont Hotel….
