What you’ll find here is a sampling of fine art black and white architectural photographs that began as real moments and real places. Whether I’m shooting architecture, landscapes or anything else, I care about the shape of light, contrast, tone, and texture so that the final print reveals the depth and emotion I envisioned when I pressed the shutter. I do not use AU to create what wasn’t there.
All photographs shown here and in my entire portfolio at Fine Art America are available as prints (framed or unframed) or as merchandise
