Part of the growing Distinctive Hospitality Group, the Madison Inn is a brand new high-end boutique hotel on the water in Madison Connecticut. With the charm of an Inn, but the accommodations of a five star property, this top to bottom shoot was captured in multiple phases. With the experience to arrive on property and capture the entire facility from stylized interiors to food and lifestyle, this project had it all. The top to bottom approach is always best ( if possible ) to maintain creative continuity.
Every room had a spectacular view
Interior room photography combined with exterior views can be challenging but the results
are always spectacular.
Working closely with the Chef and his team.
Some food shots have a short life span!
The exterior deck is stunning and thus the studio had many scheduled shots from
simple exterior photography to food and lifestyle.
Our model had little trouble finding motivation.
The word "Inn" doesn't really define the property especially with a five star spa such as this.
Moonlight, romance and The Madison Inn.
It was also a privilege to work directly with the owners, Ric and Dawn Duques. Ric Duques was the former CEO of First Data, a spin off from American Express. His level of business savvy and understanding the high-end lifestyle shaped this beautiful waterfront property to the success it is. It's rare to work directly with such an icon of the business world, but the experience was fantastic.
