Some events are about celebrating what our industry does.
And then there are events that remind us what it can do for others.

For the second year, the yachting community came together at the @carltoncannes for the @mercyships Yachting Day Gala — bringing together more than 240 people from across the industry for one very meaningful purpose: helping Mercy Ships provide free, life-changing surgical care to people who would otherwise have little or no access to it.

Having photographed the very first edition last year, it was very special to be back and see how much this initiative has grown in just one year.
The Yachting Day feels genuinely different. An industry built around yachts, business, competition and an incredible amount of privilege putting all of that aside for one evening and coming together to give back.
The money raised directly supports Mercy Ships and its hospital ships, where volunteer medical teams provide essential surgeries and healthcare to communities in need.

A beautiful evening at the Carlton, yes — but ultimately, one about something much bigger than the room we were in.

Grateful to have been there again to photograph it. Special thank you goes to @morley.tim @robert_n_allen_jr and all the organizing committee, without them non of this would be possible.

Some events are about what happens.
Others are about how they make you feel.

ATLAS Vol. I was one of those evenings where every detail had a purpose—from the music, gastronomy and the celebration of the Mediterranean way of life. It wasn’t simply an event; it was a carefully curated experience.

It was such a pleasure to photograph the evening and translate its atmosphere into a visual story, capturing not only the moments everyone saw, but also the details, emotions and rhythm that gave the night its identity.

A special thank you to @marianachaconm for bringing me alongside, whose vision and creativity brought ATLAS to life, together with an amazing team behind it all!

Still one of my favourite editorials to date.

A story inspired by craftsmanship in its purest form—where bespoke tailoring meets the timeless elegance of a @spirit_yachts

In a world that moves faster than ever, this project became a quiet tribute to the beauty of things made with intention, patience and exceptional skill.

Conceived and creatively directed by me, and brought to life thanks to an incredible team:

There is something timeless about a J Class under sail.

The proportions. The silence. The effortless way they move through the water.
Seeing SVEA and RAINBOW racing side by side at this year’s @thesuperyachtcuppalma was one of those moments that reminds you why sailing continues to inspire generations.

SVEA and RAINBOW embody a rare balance between history and innovation—modern engineering wrapped in one of sailing’s most iconic silhouettes.

Some yachts are admired, the J Class are remembered.

There are events you attend, and there are events you become part of.

For a few days each summer, Palma transforms into a meeting point for some of the finest sailing yachts in the world and the people who bring them to life.

Celebrating the 30th edition of the Superyacht Cup Palma this year felt particularly special — not only because of the racing, but because of everything happening around it.

Thank you to the whole team behind the @thesuperyachtcuppalma 💙
Thank you to @stregismardavall for an unbeatable setting for an exquisite dinner al fresco, @superyachtpartners for having me for the first race, to @superyachtrox for trusting my eye and especially to @marianachaconm for leveraging my experience of the Cup this year🤍

Built for performance and refined through experience, CERVO is a yacht that feels equally at home crossing oceans as she does competing on the racecourse.

Originally launched by @vittersshipyard and designed by @trippdesignna , the 39m performance sloop combines carbon composite construction, a powerful sail plan and a relentless focus on sailing efficiency. CERVO has reclaimed her place among the racing elite, proving once again that great design never goes out of style.

CERVO returns to the Bay of Palma ready to take on the competition during the @thesuperyachtcuppalma once again, starting this Thursday⛵️

Monaco. Cars. Yachts and a very special energy, @f1 did not disappoint.

Admired by superyacht owners, sailors, and yachting fans around the world, the J Class are more than just yachts. They are an era, an icon, a movement, and a monument to both yachting’s past and its future.

When Vitters built 43.6m SVEA in 2017, they added their experistise and name to the rebirth of the legendary J Class. As a ‘super J’, at the upper end of the Universal Rule, SVEA is an all-modern marvel crafted by tradition.

See SVEA in action at this month’s @thesuperyachtcuppalma — see you there⛵️

For a few days each year, Monaco becomes something else entirely.

The harbor fills up with some of the most iconic yachts, the city transforms, and a unique energy takes over every street, terrace and yacht deck.

Photographing @f1 here for the first time felt surreal. Not because of the race itself, but because of everything surrounding it—the atmosphere, the people, the anticipation and the energy.

Thank you to @arrowyachts for having me, and to @miss_yacht for the invitation. by @mirkform_photography

Summer, as it should feel.

Warm teak, deep water, slow moments and nowhere particular to be.
The kind of days that remind you why life somehow always feels lighter at sea.

Mallorca, summer light and @spirit.of.anima
