Tysons, Virginia

In this post, I am showing some of my favorites from a Clarence Clottey – Boro shoot in Tysons, Virginia. Since I last met with Clarence, he continues to grow his business in this neighborhood with a lot of development. Although the inside of his office building is modern, and minimal in its decor, adjacent is a beautiful mural next to the Tysons Biergarten. In this case, the color and design makes a nice setting for Clarence’s fashions.

Even though he is the designer, Clarence is really an excellent model! He does spend a lot of time working with his patterns and clothing. When we get together, I always get an update on his travels. For the most part, he is going to Europe to source fabrics, and shops to create his shirts, and suits. On this occasion, we made some portraits of him around the ground floor of his office building. The balcony with the some nice open shade provided that nice even lighting for his clothing. Concurrently, there was this very unique chair that really needed at least a couple of images. Surely these will work for his active Instagram account!

The Boro, Tysons, VA

Last week I photographed a 2018 April Lunch and Learn for the Tysons Partnership. On this occasion the topic was ‘Collaborative Approaches to Urban Parks and Public Space in Tysons’. With this in mind, this event really illustrates the mission of the Partnership. During the panel discussion, many partners from Fairfax County, the architects, developers, and property mangers explained recent successes.

Collaboration among many players is needed at this time. Before these large development projects are started, buy in from those involved will ensure their needs are fulfilled years before completion. It was interesting as an observer to hear how these issues are resolved. Without a doubt this is a privilege to see these highly intelligent and motivated leaders make these things happen. Further, I am excited to see these changes come to Tysons!

For the photos, I set up one flash through an umbrella. As can be seen this was a very large room! Thankfully the large white walls helped to fill it in the exposure.

2017 Clarence Clottey

The Boro – Tysons, Virginia

These photos were from the 2017 Clarence Clottey shoot at his office. Located in the Boro, you can obviously see the explosive development in the area. With this in mind, it was a perfect setting for Clarence’s custom men’s clothing. On this occasion, Clarence wanted to get some individual photos of shirts and ties for his website, then we got some photos of him modeling a suit around his work place.

In general, I am unfamiliar with being daring with my clothing. Certainly Clarence can help businessmen stand out with his bespoke options for suits, shirts, and accessories. Just prior to this shoot, he received a shipment from the factory in Europe where they produce his apparel. If you are looking specifically for a color or coordinate style, Clarence can create a look for you. With this in mind, he had a couple of customers come to his office to pick up recent orders. As a backdrop, his office in the Boro was a showcase of the growing Tysons area as well as the modern office spaces that are coming soon.
