Puerto Rico is a dream come true for any photographer to take pics, I have been so lucky to get invited to cover the behind the scenes for my blogs. Last Saturday I was behind the scenes with Hector Castillo one of my favorite photographers ever on the Island, the shoot was located at a beautiful historical place called El Arsenal and it is located at the southernmost tip of San Juan in the Puntilla Street.
It a mixture of architectural styles that range from Romansque to neoclassical, it is just beautiful, currently the building is home for three exhibition galleries and many cultural activities are currently held there. When I arrived I met up with Designer Rikii Sanabria we chatted for a bit because we are thinking about doing a project together with Curvy Models, he is a very talented and charming young man, I will be blogging about him very soon.
Hector’s models were IPM Model Ana Garcia and Apolonia Vargas,one straight model, one curvy model, and they both looked beautiful. I can’t wait for the next shoot that will be very soon because Hector will be a part of the new project with Designer Sanabria. Stay tuned!
