BlackHawk Hotel

As an Architectural Photographer you get to photograph some amazing structures. This is one of them. The BlackHawk Hotel in Davenport, IA. The BlackHawk Hotel is a Historic hotel that was built in 1915. It has some amazing features and gorgeous architecture. I did a Photo of the Gold Room, which is a banquet room located on the 2nd floor. I also photographed a section of the 2nd floor overlooking the 1st floor lobby. I photographed this image to highlight the beautiful glass in the ceiling. The next photo was down on the first floor near the exit to the River Center, which is where you can go use the computers set up for guests. The architecture with the columns and the detail on the ceiling are just amazing. The last photo is near the entrance from the parking lot. This is where you enter through those old round turn style doors. I wanted to highlight the piano area with the stairway leading up to the second floor with all the gorgeous marble. I did just a few photos for one of the managers there for some promotion they were doing. It was a real pleasure to be able to go in such a beautiful historic place and take some photos, even if it was just only a few.
