I’ve been dying to go to Cuba for ages and now it’s reaching fever pitch after seeing these!! Amazing, amazing work!!
I am Cuban American and when I saw Jose Villa’s tweets while shooting in Cuba I was flipping out! What he captured there makes me so excited- he’s such an amazing photographer of course. But to see pictures of the place where my family was born is indescribable!
Absolutely gorgeous! Does anyone know where the lace dress is from? Been looking for one just like it
absolutely ADORE the lace dress – also wondering where it’s from!?
where is the first dress from?? LOVE!
I am dying to know where his sweater is from with the leather buttons. Any idea???
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!
Exquisite. I’d love to know who made the short lace dress.
