TC Browne & Co renovated this beautiful split-level space on the river’s edge. The double-height of the living room provides ample views to the open sky, a true rarity here in NYC.

L'Avenue
in dining
Home to many SNL afterparties, the “haute-cuisine” restaurant L’Avenue sits above Saks Fifth Avenue. Their cozy wooden lodge lounge provides an interesting clash to their more austere but contemporary dining area, all introduced by a beautifully lengthy stained-glass entry.
Brickell City Center
in commercial
Though most of my work is in the NYC area, I’m often tasked to shooting outside of the state for many projects, including the Brickell City Center, which I have shot a few times for Simon Properties. This massive hybrid-indoor/outdoor shopping area capitalizes on the beautiful Miami weather to brings crowds in droves.
383 Grand St
in residential
It’s interesting how the architect/interior design hat can be shared by many professionals, the two roles are not necessarily mutually exclusive. Take this apartment, for instance, which was a gut renovation by an architect who also designed the home, quite beautifully. The kitchen was opened up, and the kids room was divided to allow for privacy between the two children.
Shaker House
in residential
I was only recently made aware of the Shaker Houses and their wonderfully hygge-like design. This walk-up building featured a small handful of units that had beautiful cabin-esque touches that made you feel like you had stepped out of the city and into the Catskills.

Everything But Water
I recently photographed the third store for the women's design swimwear brand, Everything But Water. This shoot happened on a dreary, rainy day in Manhattan, which is something that most clients aren't fond of. However, the lighting design in the Everything But Water stores are always quite dynamic, and coupled with some fill flash, helped create some really illuminated and dynamic lighting conditions for the photos. It was also nice to not have the clashing color temperatures of the outside light interrupt the constant flow of tungsten lighting in the store.
