New Vanderbilt Hospital Critical Care Tower

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010 Posted in Architectural Photography | 1 Comment »

Looking at the campus of the Vanderbilt Hospital you’d think there wasn’t any room to fit a new building. Somehow Earl Swensson Associates managed to fit this 200+ critical care tower and integrate it into existing facilities. Betsy and Ken were great to work with on this project, as was my first assistant Rory … always the can-do man on the job. Sandy, you were missed but you deserved a little break. :)

Probably the most interesting aspect of this shoot was getting into scrubs to enter the surgical area. We were quite the site. The technology in the bi-planner room was amazing. I can only imagine what it’s like while actually being utilized. See the special green lighting in the OR room below which is used to assist during operations.

This facility is amazing. I enjoyed photographing it. However, I hope that I don’t have to go there for any other reason.

Food from across the pond

Following are images from an editorial gig for Home Life magazine which is a title produced by Life Way in Nashville. A fun project. Always a pleasure to work with my assistant Rory and food stylist Teresa. And, the art director was great to work with. Thanks Susan for an all around a fun assignment.

Trying to Share

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010 Posted in Sorta Random | No Comments »

I’ve been delinquent in posting recent samples from both food photography and architectural photography assignments to my blog. I’m attempting to remedy my lack of sharing this morning in an effort to start off 2010 on a good foot.

October and November of last year were the busiest I’ve experienced ever. I was fortunate, particularly in light of what so many others are experiencing in the current state of our economy. I spent most of December playing catch up with business matters and other marketing efforts.

Enough of my excuses, how about I show some work.

Stand by … see following posts.
