Shutter Mike Photography

When I first started this blog I did a post featuring some photography I did of the mid-century modern architecture that is scattered around the Phoenix area.  I love this architectural style and period and think Phoenix has a good representation of it.  The city was “coming of age” in the 1950’s and 60’s when modern architecture was very popular and architects were exploring beyond the traditional.  This style is ideal for photography, especially if you are an architecture buff as I am.  The lines, shapes and overall form of the structures allow for some great compositions and plenty of room for creativity.

If you are interested in what Phoenix has to offer in terms of mid-century modern photo ops I have created a Google map pin pointing some of the buildings that I feel are most representative of the style and photogenic.
