Ritz-Carlton Bacara

Spanish Seclusion in Santa Barbara

To tourists, Santa Barbara is a break from the world. It's an escape from work in LA. It's not a real place. And the Ritz-Carlton Bacara becomes an oasis where you can hide away from real life, transport yourself into a fantasy beach land, and live a luxurious lifestyle.


For this photoshoot, our intention was to create the impression of the hotel as an unreal place. We used bright colors and highlighted the wide variety of features at the resort, and included a long road leading up to the hotel to show its deep seclusion from the outside.
