JB Blunk Estate

client: JB Blunk Estate

One of my great joys, both professional and personal, is being the official photographer for the JB Blunk Estate. It began with my request to include JB and his home in my first book, Handcrafted Modern, and has evolved into an ongoing exploration of the house as time moves forward. In addition, I photograph the various projects, portraits and happenings for the Blunk family and estate as needed.
