This,a utopian backdrop rooted in old world nostalgia. Hacienda el Carmen, located in Ahualulco de Mercado, Mexico… a region of valleys, surrounded by a cane plantation of agave, a stunning panoramic view to the volcanoes of Tequila and Ameca. Idyllic comes to mind… a place to relax, coexist with nature and rest from everyday life. And this, the location of Jose Villa’s most inspiring photography workshops. TEAM celebrated with Jose Villa Workshops at its 10 year anniversary in November (Mar has had the honor of styling hair and makeup for each of these workshops over the course of the past decade).

Now, from his own lens (and appearing in the upcoming issue of Geraldine)…have a look at how beautifully José has been inspiring a new generation of film wedding photographers from around the world…

Spellbound sounds about right. Wouldn’t you agree?
