F ROYAL PALM OMNIMEDIA: VINTAGE PARADISE

VINTAGE PARADISE

Nassau, BAHAMAS


Strike a Pose



Model and fashion icon, Carmen Dell’Orefice, with one of my favorite photographers, Norman Parkinson, during a fashion shoot in the Bahamas for British Vogue – July 1959.  Norman, who happened to love paradise so much he moved to Moriah, Tobago in the early 1960's, also became famous for his preference for shooting model outside in a natural environment versus within the confines of a studio. Do you think maybe he was on to something?
