Amidst the cobblestone streets of Florence and the elegant allure of The St. Regis hotel, a unique photoshoot took shape. “Asya packed a bag full of clothes, took the train, and met me at the St. Regis Florence. It was a cloudy day, with a bit of rain, so we stayed in and shot around the beautiful junior suite, filled with historic decor and views of the Arno River. Asya only spoke Italian, and I only spoke English so we communicated through simply getting creative together.” tells us photographer Paige Owen.
The series, starring gorgeous Asya Barbieri of Casting Firenze, exudes a warm, sun-drenched aura despite the clouds, capturing the beauty of both Asya and the locale. It takes on a visual journey, beautifully captured on both digital and film.
