Columbia Athletic Club at Pine Lake Virtual Tour

It seems to be health club photography time for me. On February 1st I did the photo shoot of the Columbia Athletic Club at Pine Lake in Sammamish, WA.

Of course, we planned it during a time period in which there were not many members around and I had the club manager on hand to run interference for me. Unfortunately, it was a rainy day, so I will be going back to add the exterior images to the tour. If you have been following the […]

Coal Creek Family YMCA Virtual Tour

I had a great New Year’s Eve with a large photoshoot at the Coal Creek Family YMCA in Newcastle, WA. The facility is over 49,000 square feet on two floors which opened in 2009. One of the challenges of doing the photoshoot was finding a time that no one would be around. If there are people in the shot, we either need to get written permission from them or blur their faces. It is much easier to find a time when no one is around and New Year’s Eve was perfect. The Club closed at 1 PM and I was […]

Historic Keawala’i Church Virtual Tour

Church members living near the beach gathered coral rocks for the making of the puna or cement, and those residing on the “forest side” brought down the lumber. You can find out more about the history on the church website. Here is the Google Virtual […]
