I photographed this site for a Noel Cross Architects. It was a challenging commission for several reasons:
Quick turn around time – deadline for AIA competition
The foggy weather in Santa Cruz didn’t allow me to get those early morning shots I love, right before and after the sunrise.
The very tight property line the house is sitting on.
I made three trips to the site, which is typical for the kind of shooting I do. I'm always look for the house in its best suit of light. I made an early morning trip, middle of the day trip, and an evening/night trip. This photograph was taken at around 8:30 in the evening at a 15 second exposure.
