We are enjoying a flurry of recent press coverage highlighting recent interior photography projects!

Country French magazine – Fall/Winter 2022

Traditional Twist - A backdrop of playful colors and patterns gives a designer’s beloved French antiques a fresh new look

Tori Rubinson contacted me a few years ago to take some new photos of her home in Ft. Worth, Texas.  From that early photoshoot we have been working together on several large projects in Texas, including her new home and also a showhouse in Ft. Worth.  

The evolution of Tori as a designer and leading interior design firm in Texas and beyond has been a fun one to witness and I have been fortunate to document. Her style is timeless, she is loved by so many, and working alongside her is about as great as it gets from a photographer's perspective. I can only imagine how much growth she will have in the next few years, the word is out and her team is growing.  See the full feature from Country French and on Tori in a recent Creative Focus blog post.

I recently photographed this amazing home designed by Houston’s own Benjamin Johnston, currently featured in the September - October issue of Southern Home Magazine. Working on this shoot with Benjamin Johnson in Houston was a highlight of early 2021. Teaming up with my old friends Jenny O'Connor (Stylist) and Haile Wossen (Floral Design) made this shoot a success. Benjamin is turning Houston into his playground, knocking out more residential projects than anyone I know. And they are all on a scale fit for special client. The main living room really shows off what is possible when deciding to live in a home that is a statement piece on its own. The primary bath could fit 20 people comfortably at once, reminiscent of an old roman bath or communal spa.

Interior Design by Shazlynn Cavin Winfrey @scw_interiors
Styling by @FrancesBailey

Shazalynn Cavin Winfrey updated this beautiful, historic home by making it more functional without losing its connection to the past. This was the first time shooting and working with Shazalynn and we started with a very personal assignment, her own home. Needless to say, no pressure here! Ha! Working with the talented Frances Bailey (Stylist) on this, we had a wonderful time during this two day shoot in Austin. The backstory of this house is worth checking out from the article. Seeing how she has transformed this into a comfortable, sprawling home, with surprises around every corner, showcases her style and skill as a top designer. 

Excited to feature this spread and interview we did on Shazlynn in our series, Creative Focus.
