A Journey in Construction Photography

Welcome to Weldon Brewster Photography, where passion and artistry converge. Over the past three and a half years, I’ve documented the construction of Frank Gehry’s "The Grand" in downtown Los Angeles—a journey that captures the evolution of a masterpiece.
‍
Starting with a vast, empty space, I chronicled every stage of development with tools like the DJI Mavic 3 Cine, Phase One IQ4 150, and Sony A7R IVs. Weekly visits became explorations, blending photography with the art of construction. Even amidst pandemic challenges, I found beauty in resilience, capturing raw, authentic moments that define this era.

Meeting Frank Gehry was a highlight, inspiring me to see "The Grand" through his visionary lens. Each shot—whether timed between concrete pumps or taken from atop rebar—reflects the authenticity and dynamism of this process.

The result is more than a collection of images; it’s a narrative of growth, creativity, and architectural brilliance. This work culminated in a coffee table book, showcasing "The Grand’s" journey from inception to completion.

As an expert in construction photography, I bring a versatile approach to every project, capturing the intricacies of building sites and the grandeur of architectural visions. To companies seeking a photographer who transforms construction into art, let’s collaborate to create something extraordinary.

Thank you for joining me on this journey. "The Grand" stands as a testament to resilience, creativity, and the power of photography to bring stories to life.
