But could photography capture that light? (Edith Wharton)

Although the photographs on this Web site may appear to be simple shots of found objects, they're not.
I employ a large number of people both on site and later in my studio to create images that match my artistic vision. Everything is planned in advance down to the last detail. Nothing is left to chance.
For example, truckloads of lighting gear are used to achieve the look I'm after. What may appear to be soft morning light probably isn't.
In addition, the objects in the photographs either were not there when one of my assistants released the shutter or had to be carefully moved into place before the picture was taken. Again by my assistants.
Back at my studio, all images undergo massive amounts of post-processing. My staff use levels, curves, layers, masks, filters, plug-ins, apps, etc. according to my instructions. I do all the red-eye removal myself.
