Behind the Scenes With a Hotel Photographer

"Rooted in the manufacturing past of Queen Street West, the building’s brick, concrete, Canadian Red Oak, and glass take center stage. From one perspective I removed the ceiling from the frame so the concrete pillars seem to extend indefinitely, with woodwork and a staircase funneling the view inward; from another, expansive glass windows pour in light and visually link the interior to the tree‑filled park across the street. Relying on natural light mid‑morning helped keep the scenes neutral and balanced between the contrasting interior and exterior light." - Mark Fedeli
