2024 was an incredibly successful and frenetic year, so much so that certain tasks such as updating this blog went to the wayside. Finally, I’ll spend a bit of time playing catchup highlighting specific projects, so here goes nothing right? Early last spring I took my first trip to metropolitan Lubbock, Texas for a multiple-day shoot to photograph the UMC
Those closely following career know I returned to Texas three years ago to set up shop in San Antonio, where I now split time between living in the Alamo City and Raleigh, North Carolina. Recently I did something I’ve never done before – walk less than 500 feet to an architectural shoot. This is the Residence on Pine, photographed for
Had the pleasure of returning to Nashville and photographing Nelson’s Green Brier Distillery in downtown for Anecdote Architectural Experiences. Located near Marathon Village, the 50,000 s.f. warehouse building includes a bar, restaurant, distillery, and entertainment spaces. Check out that fresh coat of paint! Passersby can see through the storefront windows to the distillery beyond the restaurant. The spacious interior features
Last fall I ventured up to North Texas to photograph the new Collin College Welcome Center in Mckinney on behalf of PBK. It was a shoot that mostly focused on illustrating the exterior, a blend of traditional and contemporary architectural language and interior lobby space. Repetition of arches form window openings that transverse two floors, as well as the front
I always imagined the Alamo in the middle of nowhere. Upon my first visit I was surprised it was in the center of a downtown with city blocks of tall buildings surrounding it. It was very unlike the depictions I had seen in print and on film as a child. Decades later, I’d return as a professional photographer for Clark
Four years after photographing Analog Devices’ downtown Raleigh space for CPL, once again we collaborated to document their new offices in Durham, North Carolina. The new offices and labs are located in the revitalized Park Point office campus. This is the building in which Analog occupies two entire floors wrapping around a central courtyard space flooded with a bevy of
Sometimes projects trend towards the colorful side of the spectrum. These are four projects I photographed in 2023 for various projects with what architects can accomplish with a fresh coat of paint. The Belmont Community Center was designed by CPL as a new gymnasium, fitness facility and community center for the city of Belmont, NC. The building is constructed in
This summer in Charlotte, NC, I worked to photograph at Levine’s Children Specialty Center to photograph interior architecture of a patient floor within the hospital for Little. Little hired a model agency to help populate photographs with people, along with staff from their local office. It was a really quick shoot in which we jammed in capturing many images in
This year I spent a few visits photographing the new Firsthealth Cancer Center in Pinehurst, North Carolina for architects CPL and contractor Brasfield & Gorrie. In total we spent approximately one week photographing inside and out this 120,000 s.f. facility. Most hospital designs are similar in that most of the creative schematic design are in the front-facing public areas and
Yes. Yes I am. The last blog featuring much in the way of personal photography was back in 2019 when I was quietly exploring a return to Texas. Today, I split time between Raleigh and San Antonio, so figured I’d share the other side of my photography career since that last post. A lifetime ago, wayyyyyy back in 2020 we
The sprawling shopping mall with anchor tenants and thousands of parking spots for peak holiday seasons were prominent markers of America’s consumer economy between the 1960s and 1990s. However, with the advent of online retail, the building type has been in increasingly rapid decline. Many of these malls remain empty or abandoned, others demolished, but some are being gradually repurposed
This spring I returned to Nashville for several architectural photography projects, among them the Village Church and Children’s Memory Garden at Centennial Park. Again, I had the pleasure of working with EOA Architects and McCoy Design to photograph the Village Church. In Antioch, the new building is situated on a hilltop with backdrop of woods. There were many great skies
