Signs are looking up

When I photograph a large project in addition to the overall views I always have my eye out for details of the design and installation. In this photograph I featured the lighting design at the New Balance Marine Mammal Center addition at the New England Aquarium. It was just what the lighting manufacturer was looking for.

And contact me for a copy of a printed piece I created on my Aquarium photo shoot.

Gold in Vermont!

The Fletcher Allen Health Care-Radiation and Oncology facility in Burlington, VT that I photographed last fall has earned LEED Gold certification from the U.S. Green Building Council. It is the first hospital project in Vermont to be certified at the gold level and only the second in New England to achieve that status. Please visit the "Commercial" portfolio link on my website www.andycaulfield.com to see more views from this project.

Snow offers another view

At the peak of winter, spring can seem a long time to wait for a compelling exterior opportunity. Embrace the snow and look for unique views of your projects even if out of season. Sometimes the contrast of the clean environment of a winter landscape helps bring out the best lines of a project. Here is a personal view of the Community Rowing building in Boston, MA. Architect: Anmahian Winton Architects-Cambridge, MA. Please visit the "Commercial" portfolio link on my website www.andycaulfield.com to see a larger version of this view.

Best Wishes for 2011

When dropping off a family member I photographed this holiday themed display at the E Terminal of Boston's Logan International Airport. This stylized oversized wreath looked at home against the backlit wood veneer wall interior. The renovated Terminal E was designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill with lighting design by LAM Partners.

Apartment transformed

I was recently asked to photograph a fun project, "before and after" views of a residential apartment in downtown Boston as a pitch for a new cable TV decorating program. We photographed this room with multiple decor and furniture layouts all in registration so that an animation of the still photographs could be created by the production company showing the space as it transformed with the various styles.

Model Behavior

I was asked by a client to photograph an architectural model in multiple angles featuring the seven proposed variations of their building solution. I photographed the models at their offices in an unused space creating an on-site studio in which we could control the quality of the light. That lighting control combined with a locked down camera platform allowed me to photograph the variations of each scheme in registration for the eventual presentation.

Working with Fluorescent Light

This assignment of mine was to photograph a Fiber Optics manufacturing facility in New Hampshire. I was asked to photograph both interiors and exteriors In addition to the manufacturing process photographs. Having scouted the location I found the dominant interior source light was fluorescent light. I augmented those interior fixtures with professional fluorescent lighting kits which allowed me to match the existing light while providing for movement of workers in the views which created a sense of excitement my client was looking for.
