Creative Agency (Digital): Royal Caribbean's Guide to St. Lucia – PortFolio

With a secluded feel and breathtaking beauty, St. Lucia is a utopia for ecotourists. Twin green-mantled peaks known as the Pitons tower over a verdant, rolling landscape. They rise out of the azure sea and dominate the skyline as if standing guard over the island’s natural splendors. A luxurious rainforest blankets much of St. Lucia; other attractions include a drive-through volcano, bubbling sulfur springs, plunging waterfalls, banana plantations, quaint villages, and palm-fringed...

Royal Caribbean Guide to Dominica — Custom Publishing

The natives called the island Waitukubuli, which translates to “tall is her body.” The island’s official name is the Commonwealth of Dominica—not to be confused with the Dominican Republic. From afar, the mountains that tower 4,000 feet above sea level appear to touch the sky. Now known as Nature Island, Dominica (pronounced Dom-in-ee-ka) is an active volcanic isle blanketed by tropical rainforests in which untold numbers of species flourish. In the Morne Trois Pitons National Park,...

The goal of this custom promotional feature on Italian luxury door company Barausse S.p.A. was simple: craft a compelling narrative that highlighted the brand’s craftsmanship, innovation, and design sensibility. The impact, however, went beyond expectations. A real estate developer planning a new luxury high-rise in downtown Miami read the piece, was intrigued, and reached out to the company. The result: Barausse doors were selected for all the building’s public spaces—a testament to the power of well-crafted content to drive real-world business decisions.

Its split personality is distinguished by two district European cultures, each with an unmistakable Caribbean vibe. With dozens of beaches, excellent duty-free shops, countless land and...

Creative Agency: Port Shopping Diamond Guide

A diamond’s value is evaluated by four key characteristics—Color, Clarity, Cut, and Carat—known as the Four Cs. Determined by nature, color, clarity, and carat all help dictate a diamond’s rarity and value. However, cut is the most important of the Cs because cut is the only characteristic that is controlled by man—the diamond cutter.
The cut of a diamond is what causes it to sparkle. A well-cut diamond will reflect light in a way that highlights its best attributes. By contrast, a poorly cut d...
