BEHIND THE SCENES | SS24 | BAJA SUR
I pinch myself always on this incredible life on repeat and starting straight away here in 2024. A writer recently asked me if I could choose any place to return to again where would it be? My response. Home. Yes, home. As boring as that might sound, I travel the world as not a tourist, but as a traveler. I have more stamps in my double passport than most will have in a lifetime. I circle the globe fully what feels like at least once a year telling stories in the space of lifestyle for editorials and brands alike with a cinematic considered feeling of authenticity. Yes. So for me, of all the places in the world that I could go back to… I would choose home. To my little nook in my New York City life with my rock at my side making the most of incredible meals over a glass of reserved vino, at home! A dream!

BEHIND THE SCENES | SS23 | BRAZIL
The team stepped back to South America this summer as I landed in Brazil a handful of new edit and publishing work landing out soon. Starting in Sao Paulo on a whirlwind two weeks of back to back travel, shoots, dinners, and every type of transportation of course. It wouldn’t be a CHWHAT shoot without that, no? A sartorial story set to the backdrops of the muted pastel deco hued architecture of Sao Paulo. As well of famed architect Marcos architecture Milan House for editorial. Next up to the wilds of the north to a location that I have now added to my top five, taking a number two seat as the most incredible other worldly locations that I have shot and filmed. Yes, the Lençóis Maranhenses. To a last stop back on the gold coast of the lush rain forests that but up to the bounty filled waters of the coast. Incredible as always. Work to be dropping for the next six months shot here, stay tuned… x CH

NAT GEO TRAVELER UK – MAY
NAT GEO TRAVELER UK – LAND OF PLENTY. MAY ISSUE. 2022. To the uninitiated, St. Lucia is a tranquil as it appears on postcards: all palms, platinum sands and luxury boltholes. But, taking its cue from the volcanic forces that formed it, this is a country that serves up plenty of high drama – oozing mud baths to storied sailboat trips and mountain trails. …

PRIOR | ITALY | THE GRAND AOSTA HOTEL
Words By Meredith Erickson. Photography Christina Holmes. A table is set for lunch: wine glasses, pewter plates, a bottle of Valle d’Aosta Prié Blanc on a pink tablecloth. A window above the wooden banquette with zabaione-cream cushions embroidered in Alpine flora overlooks the Sant’ Orso meadow, the largest mountain meadow in Europe. Behind it looms the Gran Paradiso mountain, the only one of four “giants” over 13,000 feet that is completely in Italy. The sun streaming in from the window gives the scene a vintage-postcard feel, as if it was taken a world away, a century ago.
AIRBNB JOURNEY CAMPAIGN – HOST | CATSKILLS | FEATURING JOE & MEGAN
JOURNAL | YES, DETROIT
Back on the road in what seems like a dream some days, I feel like the ever evolving world of shoots and production is still constantly shifting as we all find our new footing. With that as my assistants make fun, yes the new thermometer in the camera kit, takes up way to much space! Agree! As I head back to Detroit this time for an editorial I’m beyond excited about, masked up, hand sanitizer in tow up and away. Detroit always amazes me with the heart, the passion that everyone who is creating there has. How incredible the work is that’s being done there. How there is a movement there literally happening that no one is paying attention to that’s going to be amazing and change the landscape of fashion. I feel humbled always with the relationships created, the amazing people I get to collaborate with and meet, those amazing that are really truly making change for good not their pocketbooks. This last trip was no different, even in the midst of a pandemic. Get ready for it, headed out in print for 2021.
