Scripting the Shoot:

Walking around a building and its site prior to photography is a first meeting with a new acquaintance. Establishing a dialogue with the building and its users, looking at it and walking around it to see the light within the space and the light falling on it are time well spent. In this way, aspects of the volume, materials, colors, textures are revealed. The 'fun' of it all is then placing that three-dimensional world in the two-dimensional world of the photograph. The following three photographs are recent examples of that process.

The Final Product:
