Over the past few months I’ve transitioned to the use of specialized lenses optimized for photographing architecture called tilt/shift or perspective control lenses. As the name implies, these lenses have the ability to shift or tilt, upward, downward or sideways relative to the image sensor. This makes for some interesting possibilities, but I use them...

Decidedly Different…
Occasionally I have the good fortune to photograph a home that offers unique visual opportunities. This was one such time. I’m very grateful to the homeowner who asked me to capture this beautiful interior and wish them the best as they transition to their new neighborhood!
Going With The Flow…
This was my first opportunity to shoot for Margy Regan of Prudential Kansas City, and wow…what a home! One of my favorite shots was this view of the formal dining room from the front entry.

Embracing Winter…
This image is from my first shoot for Lynn Matile of Prudential Kansas City – a beautiful Craftsman-inspired home on 20 acres just south of the city. I think it appeals to me because of the contrast between the snowy landscape and the warm sun playing across the wood floors and cabinetry.

The Four Corners Rule (Or Where Did The Flow Go?)…
During the Photography For REALTORS class I did recently I mentioned that I have a rule I call the “four-corners” rule. It is basically a mental reminder to walk to all four corners of a room or space and look in the opposite direction. So often I think I know the obvious shot...
