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.

Sustainable design in a healing environment

A recent assignment took me to Burlington, Vermont. I was photographing the just completed Radiation and Oncology facility at Fletcher Allen Health Care. One of the facilities most notable features is this green roof garden and public space. It provides a healing vegetable garden and drought resistant plantings to reduce heat build-up and storm water run-off.

Maintaining the Landscape

Often when photographing a property for commercial real estate purposes the project deadline not the time of year determines the shoot date. Sometimes the landscaping is not at its prime and it is necessary to fill in for missing or damaged shrubbery. Other times you are using the greenery to hide unwanted signage or mechanical systems. That was the case with the lower right side of this view, where I expanded the planting area for a more pleasant effect.

Dedication Day

The Needham Habitat house that I have been photographing progress on since August 2009 has finally been completed! It was a marathon sprint to the last of the landscaping that was finished by the Habitat volunteers and coordinators by 8PM the night before the dedication. I took this photograph, one of my last of the project, the next morning to make a print all the volunteers could sign later that afternoon as a house warming gift for the new owners.

Clubbing

In addition to working on portfolio images of interiors, exteriors and exhibits for architects an designers, I also photograph architectural related subjects for purely marketing purposes. I photographed two college alumni clubs based in downtown Boston for their Dallas,TX based management company. This is one of my views taken at dusk of a main dining room and a glimpse of the Boston skyline.
