Photography with an Architect
Few things are more interesting to me than working in another city, in a new environment, and in a building that I've never been in before. Sometimes I have seen the inside, via a Rendering, Floor Plan or Reflected Ceiling Plan, but sometimes I just have to direct my photography by instinct.
In this case I was fortunate enough to be working with the architect herself, who was able to provide me with her design considerations and thoughts about what to show. Also I was to photograph some of the architectural ceilings for CertainTeed
The company we visited is Advarra, located in Baltimore, MD, and I had one day allocated for the shoot as I had to head up to Connecticut the following day. It all started when I picked up the Architect, Dara the evening before at Washington Dulles International Airport...

This is a photo inside a photo; Photographers know that to compose a great photo you need to layer some additional meaning into the photo. Well the architects use of these niche spaces led to a visual playground for me to play with, and I really liked how the architect made this corner into three separate areas, yet open to move through.
