Part of dining room in Heirloom, same light setup as the closeup shot, just a different camera position.
Went up to New Haven today to shoot interiors for The Study, a relatively new hotel and Heirloom, the restaurant inside. The hotel is full of bookshelves filled with interesting and unique books, and as the name implies, every room has the trademarked bookshelves and ample desk space for businessmen and students alike. These are unretouched right now, in the process we’ll be removing power outlets, cords, anything that takes away from the essentials of the images.
- Light pointed straight up behind rack bouncing off ceiling, another light with zoom reflector behind camera on left.
- Upstairs Meeting Space, natural light.
- Plant detail in Heirloom, I’m constantly looking for textures.
- Part of dining room in Heirloom, same light setup as the closeup shot, just a different camera position.
- I’m starting to take photos of my food after it’s done, don’t know why.
- Bar at Heirloom Restaurant, I shot through slats for this image.
- Lots of natural light in the hotel with floor to ceiling windows on every floor let me use the natural light more than I expected.
- Two profotos, one on each side.
