A charming home nested in the foothills of the Sangre De Cristo mountians

I just love photographing homes in the southwest. After years of photographing MacMasion and condos in southern Florida that look all alike. It’s a pleasure to capture custom built homes that don’t look alike.

A historic home I just photographed 855 El Caminito, Santa Fe, New Mexico

This 1924 John Gaw Meem adobe house has all the classical elements that we have come to love and admire: location, mountain views, privacy, an interior balance of charm and function, with a quintessential Meem portal & gardenscape retreat on its West flank. Two later built guest houses (or studios) are attached on the South side and offer great flexibility of use and need. The 3200 sq. ft. Main House has three bedrooms and three baths and the two guesthouses are presently set up as 1/1 units with kitchenettes and living rooms.
