As 90% of my paid photographic work is architectural or commercial, it makes sense to have a bit about what I do in here. Recently I had the opportunity to shoot the wonderful new Chef of Mandarin Oriental, Boston. After much planning, we decided the roof of the soon to open hotel was the best location, with the Boston skyline as a backdrop. We also made it down to Copley Square for a Farmer's Market. One of the stands at the market Sienna Farms, is actually a supplier of some of the fresh local fruits and vegetables the Chef will be using. Construction equipment was everywhere but we managed to pull off some fantastic shots of the Chef interacting with the farm owners and their produce. So while the weather did not cooperate, Chef Nicholas Boutin brought such fantastic personality and life to the images that the shoot overall was a great success. I very much look forward to dining at their signature restaurant, Asana as it opens later this month.
I also had a chance to photograph the exquisite Back Bay View and Corner Rooms at the hotel.
