Artist Journal Entry:
"The idea behind "Life In Wellington" was to capture the authenticity of the daily moments happening in this area of Florida. Wellington is known to be one of the largest and longest-running horse shows in the world. Palm tree-lined streets guide you down private neighborhoods filled with the most luxurious horse farms and Polo fields. It is a place where the wealthiest people in the world travel for show season held between January and April each year. My vision was to honor the high-end lifestyle surrounding this culture and portray a final image that represented what any average day looks like in Wellington. For this photo, I was able to get in touch with a local car collector who let us use this amazing 1955 Jaguar XK140. Alongside the car, we wanted to stage a model wearing high-end and flashy clothing to match the elegance of this image and allow her to interact with the two show jumpers off to the right side. The overall composition creates a vintage yet modern feel and I couldn't be any happier with the way it came out."
