This shoot with Isa & Willy was truly such a hoot! Originally, we were going to take photos in a fancy Italian restaurant, but when we arrived, the restaurant was inexplicably closed, so it was time to figure out a plan B. Thankfully, we were in the middle of Manhattan, so figuring out a new place to take photos took all of 1 minute. We spotted a piano bar called “Don’t Tell Mama” and decided to check it out. Inside, it had the coolest, coziest vibe. With the red velvet curtains, mirrored walls, moody lighting, and crooner classics being preformed on a grand piano in the back, the only thing this place was missing was smoke from cuban cigars! Isa is a fashion designer, so of course she had the coolest outfits, and they were simply such fun to photograph!
