Mandarin Oriental, Miami introduces the new #MiamiMyWay package, offering one-on-one photography instruction for travelers to capture striking images on the go with the camera most likely to be in their hands – a cell phone. In collaboration with top Miami “iPhoneographers” Brian Ladder @brianladder and Jose Narvaez @oasisjae, the two-night package will provide guests with photography and editing lessons at the Five-Star city resort and a chauffeured tour of Miami’s most visually captivating sights.
With the guidance of Instagram “suggested users” Ladder and Narvaez, guests will use gadgets such as waterproof cases, selfie sticks, stick-on lenses and photo editing applications to create high-quality photos of their Miami getaway that are perfect for sharing instantly on social media and will later serve as a digital photo album of their trip. Guests will be encouraged to upload their favorite memories by tagging @MO_MIAMI and using the hashtag #MiamiMyWay to join the conversation with other guests and Miami fans.
Photo scenes and selfies will take place in locations ranging from the hotel’s private Oasis Pool & Beach with panoramic views of the Miami skyline, to vibrant street art in Wynwood Arts District and the neon sights of South Beach’s Ocean Drive. Gourmet travelers will also sharpen their food photography skills at the hotel’s acclaimed restaurant La Mar by Gastón Acurio.
