In the spring of 2019, I had the pleasure to spend a few days in New Haven to photograph Yale's beautiful campus with my incredibly talented architectural photographer friends Pete Sieger, Pete VonDeLinde, JC Buck, Morgan Sheff and Chris Hudson (check them out).
Not only this was a self-directed project taken on strictly for my own entertainment, but it led to a few new clients, as some of the projects we photographed were recent ones, so we were able to sell some of the images to companies that were involved.
The Yale Health Center was one of those. A building designed by Mack Scogin Merrill Elam, completed in 2010, it stands out from the rest of the Yale campus for being more formally daring than even their more recent buildings. It doesn't appeal to the eye from every angle, but the cladding made out of shiny, very fine dark terra cotta, responds to light very well and that makes for a very interesting project to photograph.
