October & November

 

. . . . . . . . . . . .

 

I had forgotten about these film snaps from October & November last year.

 

I traveled to Vermont, London, Paris and Edinburgh – for work and for fun – and these photos were all shot on my Contax while I was on the road.

Dwell Cover Story: Hudson Valley Passive House, Barn & Sauna Tower

. . . . . .

Very excited to share this news!

I photographed the cover story for the newest issue of Dwell magazine (March 2016), an impressive and super eclectic home, sauna tower/treehouse and barn in the Hudson Valley. Designed by architects & interior designers at BarlisWedlick Architects. The issue on newsstands right now.

Wynton Marsalis’ Favorite Things for WSJ. Mag

. . . . .

 

I had the pleasure of photographing jazz great Wynton Marsalis’ favorite things for the March issue of WSJ. Magazine.

I was psyched to meet Mr. Marsalis briefly during the shoot, as well as his son Jasper (who painted the small painting above).

The second photo above is a closer view of the trumpet. It was a gift from his trumpet maker, Dave Monette, in the early 90s. It seriously weights about 8 pounds – it’s pretty amazing. Etched in the center you can see “PROF. MARSALIS”.

You can see the magazine tearsheet here.

The Wood House, January 2016.

I photographed this midcentury ranch home that’s being restored by the current owners in Westchester for Remodelista recently.

Kyle & Kellen

. . . . . . . . .

I had the pleasure of photographing the home of my good friends Kellen Tucker & Kyle Garner for Sight Unseen last year.

The story was published last week, you can see the feature & all photos here: http://www.sightunseen.com/2016/01/brooklyn-brownstone-of-kyle-garner-and-kellen-tucker/

Coastal Rhode Island Home for Dwell

. . . . .

Happy New Year!

I’m kicking off 2016 by sharing a feature that I photographed for the current issue of Dwell magazine (January 2016).

It’s an incredible coastal Rhode Island house where I spent 2 idyllic summer days taking photos of the Merola family and their summer home. This is one of my favorite parts of New England so it was such a pleasure to travel here for the assignment (after the sun set and the shoot wrapped on day 2, I made it to Abbott’s Lobster in the Rough just before they closed and celebrated with a lobster roll, steamers and a cold beer).

I’ve added the full series of photos to my portfolio here: http://www.brianwferry.com/coastal-rhode-island-home-for-dwell

 

Thanks to Sue Getzendanner and the Merola family for such a great shoot.

 

You can see the story on Dwell’s website, too.
