Creative real estate photography of a creative property in Nob Hill
When a house is well designed and exquisitely stage, it really makes my job as a real estate photographer easier! Such was the case with 310 Wellesley in Albuquerque, New Mexico owned, listed, and decorated by Renee. From the outside of what looks like a typical adobe style home in the Nob Hill area of ABQ, you could be nothing but surprised at what awaits inside. Further, Renee wanted editorial style featuring photos of the interior as well. I always highly recommend adding this special kind of photo besides just the usual wide angle interior shots. Thank you for choosing me as your real estate photographer Renee!
Bringing the River of Lights into the City in ABQ 2020
One of the annual holiday traditions in Albuquerque is the River of Lights at the ABQ BioPark, which is a vast Christmas lights display. I went back in 2018 with a 50mm lens and photographed dinosaurs, a sleepy cowboy, and all sorts of flora and fauna. WIth Covid-19, the usual crowded light viewing experience is not possible, so the park shared some of its illuminated creations with store fronts in the Nob Hill area of Albuquerque. This is why the T-Rex now stalks freely in the city, horny toads eat plants in consignment shops, and a train crosses right over Central Ave.
Covid-19 Safe at Nob Hill hair salon in Albuquerque
On my fourth shoot for Felicia of Amity A Hair Place in the Nob Hill area of Albuquerque, New Mexico, she wanted a photo of her wearing a mask showing how things are open in a Covid-19 safe way at her hair salon. I also took the opportunity to make a few quick interior photos of Amity in between her client appointments. Felicia is also my hair stylist in full disclosure. I like going to Amity because there are just two salon chairs there, it is a relaxed environment, and of course Felicia is great at cutting and styling hair and now she is doing it in a Covid-19 safe way!
This is my third commercial photography shoot with Amity. A Hair Place in Albuquerque, New Mexico (first shoot, second shoot). Today’s shoot was to focus on the redesigned interior of the Nob Hill located hair salon, however, I ended up getting an action shot and a few commercial portraits of owner Felicia as well! Felicia is my photography client, but I am also a client of hers, for my haircuts! So I can recommend her from first hand (hair) experience and Amity itself as a very cool, and relaxed space to get a haircut in, not like impersonal, noisy chain salons.
I brought my camera and lighting back to Amity A Hair Place in Nob Hill for a second commercial portrait shoot with Felicia. She has also been my own hair stylist the past 2 years! Her salon is small and relaxed in a convenient location in Nob Hill. This is a place for a low stress haircut where no one is rushing and whooshing around you. Plus, Felicia has great styling skills and is a very interesting person to talk to as she regularly travels the world! Give Amity A Hair Place a try!
My second time photographing the annual Twinkle Light Parade in the Nob Hill neighborhood of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Various types of vehicles adorned in a variety of twinkling Christmas lights slowly drive down Route 66 (aka Central Ave) to the delight of thousands of on-lookers. The usual favorites like Rudolph and The Grinch are always present, along with some twists like Mr. Potato Head and Darth Vader!
Amity. A Hair Place was the location for this commercial portrait photographyshoot in the Nob Hill area of Albuquerque, New Mexico. Felicia is the owner and someone I met quite by accident when, on foot, I was looking for a new place to get my haircut after moving to New Mexico from Florida! During subsequent haircuts I discussed with Felicia about having commercial photos made to use on social media, and the salon's website. She said she did not have a website! Well, photos first as they provide the content needed to show potential clients inside the salon!
