Inspiration for our next shooting

Thinking with your hands: A link between gesturing and intelligence.

Hand gestures as a reflection of our thoughts is taking all my attention.
I have always been interested to hear about my friends and clients real opinion.  That is probably why I prefer to just have a coffee talk rather than a call.

Here is a teaser for our next shooting

MARIJOLI on location

Last week, I enjoyed spending a warm, sun-drenched afternoon shooting a style piece for one of Hong Kong's leading magazines.

The complex is starting to come to life and take shape. Here are a few behind-the-scenes snaps...
