I photographed this for an architectural office out of Burlingame, CA last week. It was a great shoot, when I needed everything to work out perfectly, it did. Since, it was the first time shooting for this client, I wanted everything to go smoothly. It was challenging, since it had nine bathrooms (and the rest of the 6 thousand square feet too). And as you know, bathrooms are more work because they are small (to get all this lighting equipment in and still get your photo without the lights showing up), not too mention finding room for them, plus all the *&%# reflections that they create, because of all of the mirrors, glass and tile. An added dimension was that the homeowners were moving in the next day and the contractor was there with his crew trying to button up the place (lots of dust). It was a long day; I started at 7 am and finally rolled out of there close to 7 pm.

Santa Cruz Surfing Shack
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.
