Philadelphia Young Playwrights // Irwin & Leighton

I was given the assignment to shoot this super cool commercial space designed by Jessica Rubin Interiors and built by Irwin & Leighton.

This space, right on Vine Street in Philadelphia, serves the Philadelphia Young Playwrights and the Philadelphia Asian Arts Initiative. First up, we shot this studio belonging to the Asian Arts Initiative. Though it looks simple, this space required a substantial bit of subtractive lighting and a good deal of light painting to get the studio into "photograph-able" shape.  

Photographing the office space upstairs presented several compositional, lighting and staging challenges, but luckily, with the help of my client's interior-designer eye, we got the space in good shape to shoot.
