Geometric Mood
After a freezing cold walk along the river and Michigan Avenue I decided I needed to head indoors. Given my little outing was on a Tuesday, and Tuesday’s are free at the Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA) to Chicago residents, this was a perfect destination. It hasn’t been too long since my last visit to […]
A Year In Review | 2015
A light post to end the year…never hurts to do a little review and reminisce about some favorites. I hope you like them too! It’s been an exciting year! Loved teaching at the Out of Chicago (OOC) Summer Conference […]
Lines + Curves | Milwaukee Art Museum
In the last post I shared some images of the pedestrian bridge which connects the Milwaukee Art Museum to downtown Milwaukee. Today we’re moving inside for some abstracts of all those wonderful lines and curves that make up the Quadracci Pavilion. First up, the lines of the grand entrance hall which is called Windhover Hall. […]
Strings | Milwaukee Art Museum
The next couple/few posts will feature some images I made over the weekend on the Out of Chicago bus tour up to Milwaukee. Our first stop was the Milwaukee Art Museum designed by Santiago Calatrava. Definitely one of my favorite buildings to photograph! So many great lines and ways to see the details in this […]
International Photography Awards 2015 – Honorable Mentions
It’s always exciting to have my work recognized by the International Photography Awards (IPA), especially when you consider all the truly talented photographer’s, many I’m honored to call friends, whose work is awarded through this competition. This year I received 6 HM’s in the Architecture: Buildings Category. Half were for individual images and the other […]
Tempe Center for the Arts
My final photographic stop while I was in the Phoenix area was the Tempe Center for the Arts. The roof-line of the building immediately caught my attention and I spent a good amount of time focusing on its geometry. If you can’t tell by now, my favorite architectural forms to photograph tend to be very […]
Arizona State University (ASU)
The next stop on our brief trip to the Phoenix area was Arizona State University (ASU). There were a couple of interesting buildings on the satellite campus and a new law school under construction that’s looking pretty intriguing. I spent most of my time photographing the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism which was designed by […]
Illinois Masonic Center For Advanced Care
Photographing the new Center for Advanced Care at Illinois Masonic Hospital feels like coming full circle to some degree. My very first job when I moved to Chicago in 2000 was in the Virology lab here. The hospital is now owned by Advocate Healthcare, which was actually the reason I left that job to work […]
Deloitte Interiors
Last week I was downtown for a meeting about the upcoming Out of Chicago Photography Seminar that’s taking place the day before Open House Chicago, the biggest architectural event of the year where loads of buildings typically closed to the public are open, for FREE, for a whole weekend every October! If you’ve never heard […]
Cloudscrapers – New Addition
Okay, I lied…one last post from last Sunday’s photowalk. I mentioned how much I enjoyed photographing the Blue Cross Blue Shield Tower a couple posts ago. Well, I lucked out with some good clouds and reflections in that very building, a nice little addition to the Cloudscapers series! This one’s titled Entangled.
