Hey I get to post about in-between assignments again! These abandoned interior pictures from a small Pennsylvania mining town housing community. However they won’t remain empty for too long, as the landowner is slowly repairing these houses to make them inhabitable again. I wasn’t too interested in the exteriors, so you’re just going to see the deterioration on the inside.
Followers may or may not have noticed that personal photography has greatly diminished over the last two years, especially abandoned subject matter. Much of it can be attributed to my professional life, however the reality is it’s been over 18 months since doing any serious venturing due to multiple illnesses that have repeatedly landed me in the hospital and a
After shooting for KBS in Texas and Virginia, it was nice to photograph a building I live five minutes away from. Bank of America in Raleigh, formerly headquartered downtown at 421 Fayetteville relocated to North Hills in Midtown. I’ve had several assignments in this spot, coordinating with the good folks at Kane Realty for all my recent shoots there. The
Let’s talk about everybody’s favorite topic shall we? GOVERNMENT. Just kidding…sorta. We’re checking out Durham City Hall, my largest civic architectural photography assignment to date. Downtown Durham, North Carolina is experiencing a second building Renaissance, the Tobacco District serving as catalyst to revitalizing the local urban fabric. In the last several months I’ve shot three projects in the heart of
This has been my busiest summer – and similarly, busiest year so far on record, for which I’m grateful. I’ll be working again a bunch with one of my oldest clients, M/I Homes for their sales model at the Reserve at Brookhaven in Raleigh, North Carolina. Here’s a shot of the exterior: Entrance below the staircase: Formal dining room to
Whew! Only June and it’s already been some kind of year. One of the interesting byproducts of the American economy emerging from recession and the construction industry now thriving is that companies are taking a renewed look at their marketing and advertising. In an effort to keep up with the Jones’, they’ve all begun to eliminate their basic HTML/Java/Flash websites
Two blogs two straight days, why not? I’ve been working with JDavis Architects over the past nine months (no-kidding) to photograph their downtown Raleigh, North Carolina project, Charter Square. This is the first location I’ve photographed three projects in a row – not chronologically but literally – in a physical row. Charter is adjacent to 421 Fayetteville Street which is
Woohoo, the sun’s temporarily out again! It’s been brutal weather in the mid-Atlantic, with exactly 9 days of sun during a five week stretch across May and June. That means there’s a glutton of backed-up architectural and real-estate projects to discuss over the next couple of months. First up is AgBiome in RTP, North Carolina, all architected up by Integrated
Ever notice much of my art photography over recent years have been during poor weather conditions? Yeah, I gotta work those really nice days. It seems every April/May brings persistent cloudy and rainy weather that pretty much stalls all my exterior shoots. In times like these I grab my cameras and venture out for fun, which I did for two
For those who’ve been in Raleigh for awhile, you know Fayetteville Street has undergone major changes over the last two decades. Turning the street from a pedestrian thoroughfare to vehicular changed the dynamic of downtown, and in extension, the entire city. Restaurants, shops, apartments, and commercial buildings are popping up everywhere. Naturally what’s good for architects, developers, and property managers
Another day, another dollar, another blog! This time work took me down to the Atlanta area – specifically College Park – yes that College Park, a famed city with population of 14,000, home of Cam Newton, Ludacris, T.I., Jermaine Dupri, and 2 Chainz. Welcome to Atlanta. Little brought me down for a two-day shoot of the Ronald E. McNair Middle
Short and sweet this time around, this was a quick shoot for Entertainment Supply & Technologies for all of the theater equipment and fixtures they designed and installed in the Frank Theatres CineBowl Grille – which includes movie theaters, bowling alley, bar, and dining area. Definitely a switch from the old Lansdowne Theater! RELATED ARTICLES North Carolina Architectural Photography –
