Jerome Hotel Connor Corner Black and White Architectural Photography
Brick Window Arches Above the Spirit Room’s Corner Entrance
On a crisp morning in Jerome, Arizona, I photographed the corner of Hotel Connor from across the empty street. The upper brickwork, tall windows, and arched Spirit Room entrance gave the building a strong arrangement of shapes. In black and white, the light on those surfaces brings the corner forward against the clouds above it.
The hotel's name and the date 1898 sit high on the central face, with the two sides of the building receding away from that point. Window arches repeat beneath decorative brick courses, while the lighter ground floor creates a broad change in tone. The entrance sits directly below the name panel, giving the composition a clear vertical connection from roofline to pavement. Along the right side, the exterior ladder and smaller openings add finer lines without displacing that central shape.
I was drawn to the details I could see while walking and looking through town: the relief in the masonry, the mix of pale and darker walls, and the way the corner joins two street fronts. Keeping a strip of road in the foreground gave the building room within its setting. The morning light separated the brick courses and window surrounds without losing the quieter marks on the facade. For me, the photograph's character lies in those visible details, with the familiar hotel lettering holding them together as one Jerome street view.

About My Fine Art Photography
Every photograph in my collection comes from my own travels, explorations, and years behind the camera.
I create my work as photographic art rather than mass-produced decoration. From street portraits and abandoned places to landscapes, architecture, and the unusual subjects I discover along the way, each image begins with something that made me stop and look.
My photographs are available in multiple sizes so the same image can work in anything from an intimate wall space to a large statement installation.
