We had the immense pleasure of partnering with American Airlines in January for a photo shoot with the charming Eugenio Derbez. This special project took our team to the Los Angeles Londonderry modern home, poised above the iconic Sunset Strip. The Londonderry home not only came with an amazing view, but also it's well-known realtor, Josh Altman from Bravo's Million-Dollar Listing. Along with an all-star crew, we had an amazing team in place to capture Eugenio's contagious comedic energy. From his spot-on quirky wardrobe by Tara Williams Studio, to the undeniable creative chemistry between Mark and Eugenio on-set, everything came together to create some our favorite celebrity portraits.

Eugenio Derbez is one of the most influential comedians and actors in Latin America. Known for his feature film, Instructions Not Included, Derbez not only made his mark in the United States, but worldwide in the highly anticipated film How To Be A Latin Lover. Alongside Kristen Bell, Salma Hayek, and Raquel Welch, Derbez brings the "latin lover" stereotype to life on-screen in way that will surprise you...and you can be rest assured that he will definitely make you LAUGH.

It was a great opportunity to be a part of this lively editorial and meeting Eugenio, along with the INK Publishing team. Mark is a master at bringing out the natural personality and energy of subjects - working with Eugenio was no exception. So, next time you are in-flight, grab the Nexos magazine in front of you, sit back and get to know the effervescent Eugenio Derbez.
