My last two fashion week shows ended in Milan, which were a dream come true. I love Italy so much for its opulence and have always admired brands like Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, and Miu Miu.

Had I known Capri was so beautiful, I would’ve come earlier. Capri is a small island on the Amalfi Coast that is best known for its beautiful hotels/villas, luxury shopping, amazing views, and high-end clientele. Of course, everywhere I go I am determined to find and photograph (with) the best view possible. In Capri, I found the perfect spot for my purpose – the Gardens of Augustus.

The Gardens of Augustus were originally known as the Krupp Gardens as it was established by a German industrialist named Friedrich Alfred Krupp.
