Minimalist New England area hotel, with a clean mid-century modern look. We really enjoy photographing commercial spaces, and enjoy working with commercial interior designers who create these spaces. A couple of favorites below.
The Perfect Primary Bathroom -
Showcasing this primary bathroom from a Michigan Home that we photographed a couple of years back for Andy Yates. It really can’t get much better than this.
Popular Michigan Project:
Feedback is good! We hear from builders, designers, publishers, and architects all the time. Several projects in our portfolio are favorites across the board. This is one of them.
Interior designer, Any Yates did a tremendous job on this Michigan home. We loved photographing it, and yes, it’s one of our favorites too.
Below are a few shots of that amazing kitchen!
Shooting the Devon Restaurant:
We photographed the Devon restaurant back in 2018 for FBG Corporation. We had very limited time and were only able to get maybe 6-10 shots the morning we were there. I believe this was the first of three locations scheduled for photography that day.
Below are a few favorites.
Last Minute Assignment:
As an Architectural photographer, one of the significant challenges we face is handling last-minute assignments. Recently, we were tasked with photographing a restaurant just a day before its grand opening. The scene was chaotic, with teams of workers bustling around. I lost count of how many times someone walked into our shot, or bumped our equipment out of place, maintaining patience and working efficiently proved crucial.
Our client, a commercial builder, entrusted us with capturing documentation of the project for their portfolio. Despite the tight timeline and no ability to prep, we were pleased with the final results, as was our client.
The ability to adapt quickly and deliver quality work under pressure truly paid off.
Hampton Inn Interior Remodel:
Often, our assignments are commercial hotels that are designed for the family or businessman’s overnight stay. Meaning, that it isn’t a vacation destination. Still, our client wants the space to look as inviting and comfortable as possible. So, the professional architectural photographer, brings their ‘A’ game to every shoot.
Just a few photos here of a Hampton Inn. This is an older hotel that had just undergone a remodel. We wanted to make sure our colors were accurate, that nothing was overexposed, blown or washed out. The hotel owners go to great expense during a remodel and it is paramount that the images of the refreshened spaces look as up to date as anything available.
Details should be apparent and clean, colors should ‘pop’ with vibrance. Camera control, lighting and full post-processing are the key to a fine-looking image that your client can use for years to come.
Chicago Hotel Restaurant:
When photographing commercial spaces, the architectural photographer has to be able to master shooting various light sources and occasionally blending in the proper amount of exterior light from windows. Case in point, this Chicago restaurant photographed in the late afternoon. The interior space itself was beautiful, with vibrant color, plenty of contrasting elements, indirect lighting, and was facing West which meant that the interior would have a warm glow of light from the setting Sun.
We wanted to make sure that when a window was in the scene that you would be able to see completely through it. It’s important to never overexpose an image so as to blow out the highlights of a window. Ask yourself, when have you ever stood in a room and have not been able to see through a window? It’s unnatural to overexpose it, and is indicative of someone who doesn’t know how to control proper exposure or lighting.
These are some of my favorites from this shoot. We were tasked at setting up, staging the chairs and shooting before the restaurant opened for dinner. I believe we had less than an hour. Stay tuned for more restaurant shoots.
