Where are all the students? Bam! One-by-one the students start lining up in front of the entrance to the Parkside CSU Long Beach Dining Hall. An influx of people, eager to eat. Get ready — it's time to shoot!

The new library at Harbor College, designed by DLR Group Architects, is one such modern library, with more computers than books. We were brought in to capture the social atmosphere of the building’s numerous computer labs, group meeting spaces, and quiet study zones.

I stumbled across the recently-renovated Aquatics Center while scouting another project I was getting ready shoot at USC, and learned that it was designed by one of my favorite firms, ELS Architects out of Berkeley. I jumped on the phone immediately, and was able to shoot their project too!

Photographing for the prestigious firm, AC Martin, we were sent back to school to capture one of their newly designed CSULB dining halls. The new space offers students much more than the traditional cafeteria.

Atop of #Gehry's Gruen Associates @CalArts E Block building, we had the opportunity to scout with Francisco Behr of #BehrBrowers Architects at their new #CalArts Generator Building! #highereducation #socialscout #socialspace #archdaily

Often during long summer days with our clients we get some downtime to experiment and have some fun.This time, Ruhnau Ruhnau Clarke's graphic designer, Joel Barnard, brought up the idea of creating a GIF image with the camera moving around him as he floats in mid-air.

From the exterior, EightyTwo LA looks like a typical downtown warehouse — a graffiti-splattered purple, blue and turquoise facade. On the inside, owners Scott and Noah have transformed this rundown space into Downtown LA's first "barcade" (a combination of a bar and a classic arcade).

In Nebraska if you want to go see a concert you drive to Omaha. You want a great steak, Omaha. Maybe a national convention, that’s right — Omaha. Eager to make a larger mark on the map, the much smaller city of Lincoln has decided to give its big brother a run for its money. How you ask?

Hands down, it is my architects' children! These kids look good! The secret to a successful image is drama. And the secret to drama is populating the shots to make it look real.
