A Favorite Subject

Staircases are a favorite subject of mine. This is an example of an architectural interior photo, where the primary subject is an element of the architectural design, rather than the interior decorating.

Mid-Century Modern in San Jose

A very nice Mid-Century-Modern style home that I shot recently for Brett Jennings/Keller Williams Bay Area Estates.

The owners of this home previously lived in an Eichler Home in the South Bay Area. It is interesting to see the influence that Eichler Homes have had in the Bay Area, and I have shot a number of high-end homes built by owners who previously lived in an Eichler Home and wanted to maintain the feel of these homes when they could afford something on a grander scale. How many other types of tract homes have exerted such an influence?

Recent Work

Recent real estate marketing photography for Kirk Mahncke/Alain Pinel Real Estate.
Recent residential construction by Urban West, LLC.

I always enjoy photographing Urban West projects. While these are nominally midrange "spec" homes, the quality of the design and the materials and fixtures they typically use puts these houses well above the norm for this general type of home. Also, they typically stage the homes very well.

Photographing new construction can be a challenge sometimes because completion schedules can be a moving target and I sometimes have to start photographing as the construction is just being finished, or even while construction is still going on.

In one case, I actually had to photograph a home (not an Urban West project) while it was still undergoing construction, with a full construction crew on site, before appliances had even been installed and with blue electrical tape everywhere. The home had even been partially staged despite all of this. This kind of situation is not conducive to creating the best photos, but tight real estate marketing schedules sometimes require such compromises.
