Capturing accurate, high-fidelity photos of artwork involves a complex interplay between human vision and digital imaging technology. We must reconcile these fundamentally different ways of seeing to produce a faithful representation of the work.

As a painter, I understand the imperative to preserve color, tonal relationships, and detail in photographic reproductions of art. My workflow is color-managed from capture through export, incorporating a high-resolution camera body, apochromatic macro lens, reference targets, ICC profiling software, cross-polarization equipment, color-stable strobes, calibrated reference monitors, and meticulous editing.

Art installation documentation foregrounds spatial arrangement and architectural context, entailing formal considerations and a distinct technical approach. I use line, scale, and light to articulate the presence of a space. A tethered workflow facilitates review and collaboration during photography.
