Greater Land

The correlation between mental and physical, mind and body, interior and exterior, how we feel and how we present ourselves to the world, is an inherently human in nature.

The success of Nike is in no small part due to a deep understanding of this quality. In the same manner as aesthetic choices such as color, length, fabric, etc. can communicate the inner nature of the wearer to the beholder, something as minimal as a sneaker can communicate spirit and essence. This shoot captures, in both form and content, precisely how a sneaker can transcend the realm footwear to become something profoundly human.

Awake NY x USMNT

On the back of the t-shirts, “Solo Pa’lante” meaning “Only Forward” is printed in support of the inclusive spirit inherent to USMNT, and reference back to Baque's own Ecuadorian-American roots and experience growing up in New York playing soccer.

Off Court

His candid BTS capture takes us from hotel room fittings, to the anticipatory hallways of arenas, to the pivotal Orange Carpet at WNBA All-Star Weekend –– and the intimate moments in between. The images here depict not only moments, but the design process and the bonds being formed and the emotions that came with them.
