Workers on a mass timber beam structure with a CLT panel suspended by crane

Progression

I photograph the build as it happens.

Multi-stage visits. Progress photographs, the crew, and a record of how the project went up.

The record

A finished building is one story. The visits before that are another.

The visits

This is for builders and design teams who want a record of the build, not only the finished day.

Dates are set around the work on site. Frames from each visit, held in one place.

The build

How the visits run

  1. 01

    First visit

    Site, staging, the ground as it is. A baseline before the structure goes up.

  2. 02

    Structure

    Timber, steel, the days the skyline changes.

  3. 03

    Envelope

    Siding, glazing, the building closing in.

  4. 04

    Crew

    The people who built it, photographed on the job.

  5. 05

    The record

    Frames from each visit, held in one place.

On site

What the visits cover.

The same building, seen as it goes up. Tools, timber, the crew, the stages.

Construction tools on a sawhorse, ocean and mountains through full height glass beyond

The site

How the project is going up.

Staging, access, the ground as it changes.

The work

Cranes, timber, steel.

The days that change the skyline.

The crew

The people who built it.

Photographed on the job, not a separate portrait day.
