Morocco PhotoShoot with Shiva Rea.

I am Just back from A whirl wind trip from Morocco where I shot Photographs of Shiva Rea's Retreat.
What A journey.
Once I landed in Marrakesh I knew I was in for a treat. I wasn't disappointed as the entire trip turned into a magical journey of people, colors, food, yoga, friends, camels and sand.
A pack of 40 beautiful woman and 3 Israeli Men from came to study and play with Shiva Rea on her first pilgrimage to Morocco.
It was photographers dreamfull of all the little stories that go along with traveling to an unknown country.

My favorite part of the Trip was the 8 hour drive with 3 Ganawi musicians Shiva, Dimitri, Dave Stringer, Patrick and I all packed in a van with a Moroccan driver trying to swindle us into the tourist attractions.... lets just say it didn't work and the drive directly to the Sahara desert was the reward. one sunset shoot, a night of jamming with the local Bedouins, and a sunrise camel ride was all we had time for, and we drove 8 hours back into civilization..
here is a video clip of me shooting Shiva Rea On the dunes of the Sahara desert shot by Dave Stringer.

She is singing the mantra prayer we learned from the Ganawan musicians.

Here is a video Of Ali the Bedouin, who gave us Fire, and played music with us into the late nigth under the stars in a tent.
