Besides shooting for Interior Designers, Architects, and Magazines I also photograph for the Hospitality Industry. My clients include multinational hotel chains such as Sonesta and Hilton, as well as small boutique hotels like the Commonwealth Hotel, and resorts like the Harbor View on Maratha’s Vineyard. I often am photographing new guestrooms or ballroom setups, exteriors, and always food! Here is a quick sampling from 2011. You can see more of my Hospitality work here.
Recently I was commissioned to photograph the Kayak corporate HQ, again… They are growing! Andrew Cohen Architects designed Kayak’s first space, and just completed an additional floor with integral stair that encompasses and defines the break area and kitchen. Take a look! (Kayak, if you don’t know, is the preeminent travel search engine. It’s your one stop for flights, hotel, etc. Kayak searches all the “other” travel sites and brings the info cleanly to one place.)
Also check out this amazing residence that Andrew Cohen Architects designed just west of Boston.
Did you know that the Boston Society of Architects BSA “Home Owners Project Handbook” cover photograph is a Patrick Ahearn project I shot on Martha’s Vineyard… I forgot and was pleasantly surprised, well… reminded, when I was at the BSA’s website today! You can view more images of this “Island Village Compound” by clicking the link.
The second page is my photo as well. Fantastic house in Lincoln, MA built by Merz Construction and designed by Andrew Cohen Architects. It was featured in Boston Magazine.
Interior Designer Kristen Rivoli decorated this historic Concord house for the Concord Museum House Tour. I Love the Green, Gold, & Purple palette and incorporation of fruits and veg. “I used foods of color to convey the accents ‘lime green and eggplant’ inspired by my Bernardaud China used in the Dining Room along with the silver and gold foundation colors.” says Kristin. Read more about her New Year’s Party theme and ideas on her blog.
Just in case you missed it, New England Icons is out! Pick it up at your local independent book store or at Amazon.
What a great project! It was a real treat to explore New England creating Iconic images for Bruce’s fine essays. Photographing the Mount Washington Hotel; finding the quintessential Vermont Sugar Shack; and taking part in the annual Thompson Ice House ice harvest are experiences I will not soon forget. Waiting for the driving snow to calm while shooting an historic Colonial house in Concord, with my son Will keeping the equipment clear of snow, also ranks.
A big Thank You to Bruce Irving, Norm Abram, Design New England Magazine, and all who had great suggestions for places to shoot, as well as all you wonderful people in the New England Design Community who have been so supportive and ‘packed the house’ at our book signing at the Cambridge Historical Society!

This incredibly efficient passive home, complete with windmill and solar panels, was featured in Design New England Magazine Spring 2011 issue along with my other feature story “Tall Order”
Built for the next century, this house designed by Boston architect Craig Buttner sits nestled in the woods on Martha’s Vineyard. The house is decidedly modern with it’s roots deeply set in the New England vernacular. It is both wonderfully open and full of light. The day of the photo shoot proved to be a race for the sun. Arriving on a blustery ferry ride to dark skies. The sun miraculously appeared as we drove down the long driveway, but only for a moment. The day was a constant blow of dark clouds with moments of sun. We finished the dusk shot in a heavy drizzle….
Here are a few pages from the story. See the entire article here.
The book is starting to take form! Here is a sneak peak at the cover layout….
