It has been a summer of commercial shoots and it’s been all Ryan and I could not be more proud or more grateful to have his talent and partnership in work and life. His eye for good client work and the best ways to promote it through clean, gorgeous photography is impressive. Am I biased? Probably, but that doesn’t mean that I’m wrong.
Today’s feature is the new Culinary Arts Building at Wilkes Community College. Built by our clients MBI Builders, this new Culinary Arts building is ready for new students this fall.
I can see the students filling each of these spaces and each of these stations and learning all they will need to know to be excellent chefs, line cooks, hospitality experts, and small business owners. Growth in an individual life meets economic growth and the culinary arts is indeed a growing specialty on campus.
We have a great working relationship with MBI Builders and have been photographing their amazing work in the private, residential sector over the years. This firm also does elegant commercial work for government contracts, parks and recreation and industry leaders like Procor.

Once again, we were proud to be brought in to capture architectural images of a recently completed house on Lake Norman. This home on Rockabill Lane was designed by the local branch of LaBella, a national company, and built by MBI. The homeowners were thrilled with MBIs work and craftsmanship and were very pleased with the finished product. You can see why in the images we took. It’s a lovely modern mountain home with all the amenities and some incredible views.
There are several unique details to the build that were new for MBI. The chain for the rafter ties together the main living space. The wine barrel sink in the lower floor half bath is clever in that space. And the 2-sided fireplace that had one side in the master bedroom and the other in the master bath is extraordinary. All of these features are amazing and suit the house perfectly.
The house sits on a quiet cove peninsula of Lake Norman in Mooresville and has more than 200 degree views of the water from the large bank of accordion doors overlooking the in-ground pool. While it is a mountain house in feel, it clearly does not lack elegance.

Pixels has been asked to shoot images for MBI Builders many times and we always love the challenge of architectural photography, with the angles, light and focus on the purpose of each shot. For these projects, our marketing minds kick in and we need to keep the target audience in mind. With weddings, family or baby portraits, we know the audience. With commercial photography, we get to really sit and have a brand, business and promotional materials conversation. These are conversations we love!
Ryan took this gig (he nails the commercial work, you guys) and he created some lovely images for MBI of the space they designed and executed for PROCOR Industrial.
PROCOR Industrial is located in Cornelius, NC and signed MBI Builders for a recent project. The office spaces and group areas created allow individuals and teams at PROCOR to be more productive, feel more connected, and enable employees to accomplish both segmented and team-driven projects.
MBI shared this with us: “The PROCOR project was indeed unique. It is not necessarily a new endeavor, as commercial work is becoming one of our primary areas of focus, but this was a very modern job. Our main goal is always to build value with each and every client, and we believe we achieved this with our designs for PROCOR.”
These images will be used in MBI’s portfolio and marketing collateral and we loved being a part of their marketing team to make this happen.

There is an African proverb that goes: “If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want far, go together.” Collaboration is a beautiful thing for many reasons and recently we experienced that again on the commercial side of our photography business. We were contacted by the owner of KLI – Kathryn Lily Interiors, Jody Kurtz, to photograph her designs for the interiors of a gorgeous home.
KLI collaborated with MBI, the builders of the house at the Blue Ridge Mountain Club development. We’ve photographed MBI projects in the past and when they referred Kurtz to us, we were excited to spend some time focusing on the interior design work.
For this project, Ryan was on duty and worked directly with Jody and a member of her design team, to capture their clean and elegant styling in each room. They discussed the shot list and coordinated seamlessly. Ryan said that because they knew what they wanted and stayed a room or two ahead of him, he was able to get a cache of amazing photos of the entire house in a matter of hours.
In the past, when we’ve taken architectural images for commercial use, we’ve focused on the construction and craftsman aspects of the build, things like cabinetry, countertops, exteriors, decks, custom fireplaces and so on. For this shoot there was shift in focus on the finishes that Kathryn Lily Interiors put into that space. There are shots that show off the overall space, but also more intimate photos of certain design aspects, textures, color patterns and overall balance. Ryan loved working with the KLI team and appreciated the organization and creativity of that partnership and collaboration. Beautiful results in the home and in the images.

The collaboration between Chetola Recreation Sporting Reserve and the Blue Ridge Mountain Club is a smart and fairly seamless one. “On 67 acres of rural rolling terrain, among towering pines, red maples, and mighty oaks, and surrounded by the incredible Blue Ridge vistas in the heart of the gated Blue Ridge Mountain Club, lies Chetola Sporting Reserve. The private club, open exclusively to those with annual memberships or lodging guests at Chetola Resort, features an array of outdoor sportsman activities including gun, rifle and pistol ranges, sporting clay course, 5-stand clay station, archery range, and fly fishing. All activities are led by NRA-certified instructors specialized in a particular discipline, with customized Churchill-style instruction based on each guest’s proficiencies and needs.”
What Ryan and I saw was the usual amazing work from the minds at MBI Builders. It is an absolutely gorgeous timber frame lodge for the members and guests of the Resort and Club to enjoy and perfectly situated with beautiful views and area to practice your marksmanship.
