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.
