We had been looking forward to this photoshoot for months. What could be better than shooting a Kipnis Architects home in a secluded area? Not much. While we had seen some preliminary build photos, the finished home exceeded all expectations. Modern architecture, vaulted ceilings, balconies, patios, and large windows throughout are just a few of the incredible design elements that make this hideaway truly exceptional. With every angle, the craftsmanship and attention to detail shine through. There’s much more to come as we continue to feature this amazing home.

Shooting an Electronics Manufacturing Facility:

Shooting industrial spaces like an electronics manufacturer presents unique challenges. The goal is to make the space appear fresh and clean while still conveying the dynamic environment of a working production facility. This often requires extensive cleanup on-site: managing cables, organizing inventory boxes, and minimizing personal employee items to maintain a professional and orderly appearance.

Post-processing plays a crucial role in enhancing the final images. We focus on making any color elements stand out against the predominantly white and gray backdrop of production areas. This selective color contrast adds depth and visual appeal, emphasizing the sophistication and precision of the manufacturing environment.

Recently, we photographed Richardson Electronics shortly after they completed a comprehensive renovation of their offices, production, and shipping and receiving areas. The updated facility offered fresh, modern spaces where the balance between operational functionality and aesthetic quality was evident. Below are a few examples showcasing the clean, efficient, and vibrant nature of their transformed workspaces.

 

Flashback Friday: Neff of Chicago:

We had the pleasure of joining Nancy Olive of Neff of Chicago on a photoshoot back in 2015, capturing an incredible walkout pool house connected to the primary residence. The standout element was unquestionably the bespoke cabinetry crafted by Neff—an exquisite blend of form and function.

The contemporary curved counter immediately caught our eye. It was a versatile centerpiece, perfect for mixing drinks, pouring a glass of wine, or simply sitting and chatting with guests. Alongside this, the space featured a large custom wine refrigerator and a thoughtfully designed coffee bar, making it ideal for entertaining.

Storage was abundant throughout, with sleek cabinets seamlessly integrated into the design. A dedicated working desk with additional counter space provided a spot for crafts or office tasks without sacrificing style or practicality.

Collaborating with Nancy is always a rewarding experience, and this project was no exception. Below are some of our favorite shots that showcase the beauty and utility of this exceptional space.
