300 Swift – Durham, North Carolina Interior Photography

It may seem like it but for the record, I am not professionally stalking Matt McConnell and all his projects. NOT YET. In my defense, Cline Design hired me earlier this year for interior architectural photography of 300 Swift apartments in Durham, North Carolina involving five views. Each shot was staged anywhere between 15-45 minutes and I employed a home-cooked

The Lansdowne Theater

I was recently in the Philadelphia area to photograph the Lansdowne Theater in Pennsylvania. A little about the theater – the building is on the National Historic Register and operated until 1986. It’s old and in disrepair, but as you can deduce from the lights – not abandoned. Like many historic buildings there have been several failed attempts to save

Architectural Photography – In All Confidence

WOOHOO, first blog of 2016! About time, right? It’s been a relatively busy winter season so what better way to get started than to talk about a project I really can’t talk about? That’s correct, the location and who owns it is CONFIDENTIAL (dun dun DUN). When asked if I could keep a secret, I enthusiastically replied in the affirmative

The Little Building That Could – North Carolina Architectural Photography

It’s not every day you get to commercially photograph a building in the same location you’ve shot art photography. However, that was the case for Blok Architecture’s recent infill project in Durham, North Carolina. I, like many local photographers, have captured this previously practically abandoned alley over the years. As Durham has dramatically grown from the doldrums of the past

Fonthill Castle Estate – Doylestown PA

Woohoo!  I finally got away to take some photos for fun! I traveled to the unique Fonthill Castle Estate in Doylestown, approximately an hour north of Philadelphia. Fonthill was built in the early 20th century by Henry Chapman Mercer an archaeologist and anthropolgist. Mercer had no training in architecture but designed and built the entire house himself between 1908 and

Texas Real Estate Photography – The Promenade in San Antonio

While it rained in North Carolina for two weeks straight, I escaped to work in SanAntonio, Texas on assignment for KBS at the Promenade, part of the Eilan mixed-use complex near Six Flags.  You can’t miss these colorful Spanish-inspired buildings with terra cotta roofs. The buildings are pretty straightforward in their appearance, though I was able to play with the

Marsico Hall is one of the latest buildings to be completed on University of North Carolina’s campus in Chapel Hill. It’s a $260M research facility dedicated to advancing knowledge of cancer and other complex diseases.  Departments include lung health, microbiology and immunology, cancer research, and nanotechnology.

North Carolina Architectural Photography – Stanhope Student Housing

The Stanhope student housing development is another architectural photography assignment in my backyard of Raleigh, North Carolina for Little Architecture. Having photographed modern student apartments throughout the South, it’s obvious that these aren’t your parents’ apartments. These kids are getting it all these days. You know – back in MY day… …er, uh sorry – was getting carried away with

Everyday I’m Hustlin’

It’s been a personally interesting and challenging year, much of it affecting my daily ability to work. I’ve recently continued to forge ahead both personally and professionally, getting back into the groove of things this summer. Now – when I, like many photographers, present these blogs we tend to show off our sexiest projects – the assignments we know will
