Jardín Escondido
Residential Photography
A courtyard house in San Miguel de Allende built around a central garden. The architect wanted images that showed the dialogue between planted and built space — how greenery infiltrates every corridor and threshold.
The Story
The dense foliage created deep pockets of shadow alongside bright patches of direct sun. Bracketed exposures and careful timing let us capture the full tonal range without flattening the atmosphere.
