URBAN ZEN

THE HAITIAN CITY OF JACMEL INSPIRED THE PERFECT BACKDROP FOR CREATING SOMETHING MAGICAL. TOGETHER WITH RUSSELL

JAMES AND DAVID BELLE (WHO’VE BEEN WITH ME SINCE THE BEGINNING OF MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH HAITI), WE DECIDED TO SHOOT

A FASHION CAMPAIGN. SHOWCASING THE CRAFTS OF LOCAL HAITIAN ARTISANS. JOINING US WAS ADRIANA LIMA, WHO EMBODIES

THE ESSENCE OF EVERYTHING I BELIEVE A WOMAN IS -- SEXY, SMART, SOPHISTICATED, A MOTHER, A WIFE. TO HAVE HER JOIN OUR

JOURNEY, BREATHING LIFE INTO THIS DREAM, WAS TRULY A GIFT.

I KNOW THAT WE HAVEN’T EVEN SCRATCHED THE SURFACE OF WHAT IS POSSIBLE, BUT IT IS MY HOPE THAT WE’VE SET THE

PRECEDENT FOR THE OPPORTUNITY THAT LIVES IN HAITI.

THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING.

ENDLESS POSSIBILITY

WHERE THERE IS CREATIVITY THERE IS HOPE.

AND HAITI IS THE MOST HOPEFUL PLACE I’VE EXPERIENCED.

Thank you to everyone who has taken this journey with me.
