IRIE. RESPECT. These two words are what one would hear most while visiting this tropical, lush piece of heaven dead smack in the middle of the Carribean. These are two words that signify the easy going, yet hard-work mentality of the island’s inhabitants. These are two words that will resonate with me until the day I die. Negril, Jamaica is most known for its stunning beaches and the “all-inclusive resort” vibes, but the smarter visitors know there is more than enough beauty hidden within the furthest point of Westmoreland Parrish. I ask that you embrace the environment through these photos as if you’re there. Let all of your senses get lost in each moment. This is Jamrock… a getaway like no other.

Darnell Scott was born and raised in Central New Jersey and is now based in New York City. He has traveled across the country chasing his passions using photography as his medium to search for the points at which each passion intersect and overlap. Lead Cirriculum Developer of the New York Institute of Photography, Jay Johnson, cites Darnell’s photographs as “a winning style and embrace of multiple genres, from street and fashion to skateboard and landscape, takes a fresh “why not capture it?” curiosity with the world, and he’s an articulate representative of the profession.”
