Day 6 of 7 in Boston Photography Trip 2023
Standing in this space had a warmth and comfort that I hadn’t expected when I first saw the preview images in an email long before this shoot.
The bright glow of late afternoon gave way to a soft inner beauty after sunset and I had a wonderful evening photographing and touring this home while relaxing with the home owner.
He pointed out a view he loved from the deck looking back into the kitchen through the patio doors, so we sat in the grass and talked about his journey of landscaping the grounds as we waited for the reflections to fade so I could capture the view inside in the final image.
Perhaps the most impressive element of the kitchen is how closely matched the wood tones are across multiple sources. The red oak floors are from a tree the homeowner downed when he first purchased the home many years ago. The rift cut white oak cabinet veneers pair with it seamlessly, and the crown trim is expertly colored matched, creating a wonderful harmony that looks like it all could have come from a single source.
I’d like to return for some night photos, as I’m sure the space has a particularly lovely softness under its own illumination.
