This portfolio presents a portrait of Nevis through the individuals who contribute to its tourism industry—whether by profession or proximity. From artists and performers to hoteliers and guides, each subject plays a vital role in sustaining what remains the island’s most significant economic engine. I sought to portray them as more than their labor—to offer a sense of interiority, presence, and dignity—because it is their heart that truly shapes the visitor experience. Commissioned by the Nevis Tourism Authority, the series became a cornerstone of the organization’s recent rebranding.
