High-End Real Estate Photography and Video

I don’t photograph much real estate these days, but when I do it is because someone wants the home photographed like an architectural photographer.

5 Things I Learned from Shooting Interiors and Architectural Photography with Film Cameras

About 6 years ago, I purchased an old Canon AE-1 film camera from the 1970’s. I was feeling in a bit of a creative rut, and also really wanted to understand photography better.

Today I wanted to show off the top 10 kitchens (and kitchenette) photographs that I have had the opportunity to photograph for my clients over the years. Maybe it’s because I love to eat.
