Johnie's Coffee Shop Revived
Once a Los Angeles icon and a prime example of Googie style architecture, Johnie’s Coffee Shop sits at one of LA’s most iconic intersections: Wilshire and Fairfax. Long neglected, its style still shines for the careful observer.
In the digital darkroom, I lifted the building from its surroundings, turned day to night, and relit it inside and out, taking hours to illuminate every single light bulb that adorns its roof. The iconic Los Angeles searchlights hint that Hollywood is not far away.
I believe in connecting personally with those who appreciate my work. Each print is created through conversation—we'll discuss what drew you to this image, then I'll oversee every detail from paper selection to presentation.
