The Quilters of Gee’s Bend. This is Stella Pettway and Pleasent Scott of Boykin, AL, and this quilt was a collaboration between the quilters, Stephen Burks Man Made, and Italian fabric maker Dedar. The quilt is part of the American Pavilion at the 2025 Venice Biennale of Architecture, on display through November. #venicebiennale #uspavilion #geesbend

This year I photographed a beautiful renovation for @interradesignarchitecture. Page turned this 1966 Ranch home into what you see here: a fabulously detailed haven for a modern family.

One more favorite from my @gardenandgun photo shoot with Whitley Esteban of @studiotreprojects . What you don’t see in this photo is how much WORK went into getting this garden ready for this ONE picture (hat tip to Whitley’s mom). And then the sun dropped right into place, I pressed the shutter, and we were off to the next one. (Okay, I pressed the shutter a bunch of times, but you know what I mean.)
This shoot was such a tight collaboration between me, Whitley, and @lindsfleege —who was the ultimate utility player all day. Lindsay’s eye and her sense of what the magazine wanted were essential. And of course, Whitley opened up her home, helped me move all her furniture around, and carried her surfboard back and forth across the garden until 💫 . Thank you! 🙏🏼

Whitley in her home office, an outtake for @gardenandgun. I don’t know what to say except that I love when architects design by hand, as she does. “It always starts with pencil and paper.”

I’m delighted to have photographed architect Whitley Esteban (of @studiotreprojects) and her charming home in Pensacola for the April/May issue of @gardenandgun magazine. The story is on their website under Home & Garden and on newsstands everywhere!

Small Towns Campaign for T-Mobile.
Max and Alex are two brothers from Nashville who play music together and, for this day, were in our photo shoot. One of the reasons I love working with folks who have their thing and just happen to be in an ad campaign is that once they finish setting up their instruments, they can play an impromptu show! I have heard of photographers hiring a DJ to set the tone on set for pro athletes and celebrities. But a live rock band? Come on!
Revolution Pictures—also from Nashville—did a bang-up job producing this campaign. We had crew from Nashville, Atlanta, New York, Birmingham, and places in between. REVO pulled all these folks together into a unit, which was no small feat. They are the best: Randy, Tameron, Kristen, Colton, and Jay. @revorandy, @bnabrowneyedgirl, @kristenouellette, @mcoltoncomeaux, @jayputnam_ THANK YOU.

Small Towns Campaign for T-Mobile.
Last year I had the pleasure to photograph a campaign for T-Mobile as part of their focus on small towns and rural America. It was a 2-day project with a large crew, multiple locations, and many moving parts. It was right in my wheelhouse, but the scale was a level up from anything I had shot before. This was such a team effort, and so many people worked really hard to make the shoot a success. Thank y’all.

My sweet spot these days is light that feels unlit but has a little +1 where it counts. This project was a great fit for that because you can light a product as a perfect piece of sculpture, but in the end it’s got a cord and a cable, and it’s going to sit on your shelf and deliver fast, wireless internet. It looks good up there, so let it!

It’s not always the case, but sometimes all a tight deadline needs is a small, exceptional team. I lit and shot the product, Ande pulled rabbits out of her hat (including that Toucan), Shannon made the right calls, Julia kept us upright, and Kristin got us from a-to-b. All in a lovely but very tight location.
