Watseka Illinois McDonalds:

A recently completed McDonald’s location was photographed the day before its official opening. We began the shoot early in the morning before sunrise to capture the building with a soft, twilight-like ambiance, simulating an evening scene. Once the sun had risen, we continued shooting to showcase the crisp, natural daylight highlighting the structure’s clean lines and vibrant branding. This dual approach allowed us to present the new McDonald’s in both moody, atmospheric tones and bright, clear conditions, emphasizing its architectural features and inviting presence. 

Midici of Naperville:

We photographed the exterior views of Midci in Naperville the evening before they opened for business.  The following day, this quiet empty outdoor patio would be filled with patrons, enjoy the amazing food and drink they offered.  It’s allows a good idea to shoot a commercial space before it’s opened, that is when the views are pristine and fresh.  Some favorites below.

Exceptional Master Bath Suite Remodel:

We photographed this extensive Master Bath remodel, showcasing a vaulted ceiling, a spacious walk-in shower, a custom dressing table, and two large walk-in closets.

Vintage Condo Master Suite Remodel:

This Master Suite, part of a vintage condo remodel by Benvenuti & Stein, showcases the skill and creativity required when working within strict structural limitations.

Despite working with what was available, the suite now offers ample closet space and generous circulation around the room, enhancing both functionality and comfort. The Master Suite Bathroom features bespoke cabinetry and elegant marble floor tiles, adding a touch of timeless sophistication. A large walk-in shower and a thoughtfully designed vanity desk complete the space, ensuring modern convenience and style.
