MAGICAL MARRAKECH MOMENTS

Capturing moments in Marrakesh with my camera, I could not get over the color, elaborate detail work, lush gardens and play of light over it all. There are beautiful hand - crafted details all over Marrakesh- too many to catch everything on film. Lush gardens bursting with color, painted buildings in saturated colors , intricate handwork on any number of surfaces, the amazing light. Just some of the things that made Marrakech magical.

The gardens at La Mammounia before sundown

Monochromatic white pierced lanterns hanging in Moor, a French inflected fashion and home boutique in Gueliz

Dinner at La Pause in the desert

The mixed-up boldly patterned tile floors at Popham Design

The vivid bouganvelia and saturated yellow pots at the divine Majorelle Gardens

The riad Maison D'Arab

Riad Monceau where our small group dinner were held
