Chicago Interior & Architectural Photography

4 am Photo Shoot -

We were assigned to photograph a Houston, TX bank interior with one constraint: shoot before staff arrived at 6:00 a.m. No problem. There’s nothing like arriving to a December photoshoot on an unseasonably cold Texas morning.

After an hour or so capturing the exterior, we moved inside for a quick interior session of the lobby and offices. The early start gave us clean, undisturbed spaces and ideal light control, which made it possible to capture the architecture and material details precisely as intended.

The shoot was completed on time and under budget. Our client, the architect, was thrilled with the results — and we are too. More to come.

Shooting Corporate Office Scapes -

Our recent “Office Scapes” posts have been a hit—thanks for the emails and kind remarks about how clean and sharp our commercial images look. We really enjoy photographing commercial projects, and when those projects align with high-end design it makes for especially rewarding shoots.

Below are a few images from a recent build for a Houston-based builder. These captures focus on clean lines, material detail, and the way light defines the space—qualities that help convey both function and craftsmanship.

Stay tuned. More to come.

Evanstons First Passive House - Family Room -

It was a pleasure shooting this home for Nate Kipnis, Lauren Coburn, and Scott Berliant. Two years after completion it continues to awe, appearing prominently in design, construction, and architectural journals nationwide.

These interior images highlight both the refined interiors and the integrity of the architectural design — light, materiality, and spatial relationships that make the house feel both purposeful and timeless. Details like the custom millwork, carefully considered sightlines, and the way natural light sculpts surfaces are all visible across the series.

Stay tuned — there’s always more to come.

Evanstons First Passive House -

This project, photographed a couple of years ago, continues to win awards and attract national and local press. Among the most notable images circulating are the dining room and living room. Here we feature the three most popular dining room shots.

Architect: Nate Kipnis Construction: Berliant Builders Interior Design: Lauren Coburn. The dining room images highlight the room’s thoughtful proportions, material contrasts, and how natural light sculpts the space throughout the day. Each frame emphasizes a different element: the relationship between table and architecture, the texture and finish of the millwork, and the mood created by the layered lighting scheme.

More to come — we’ll feature the family room in another post soon.
