Le Clay Hotel
Hospitality is never just about the design of a building. It is just as much about atmosphere, energy, and the feeling of a place. This shoot for Hotel Le Clay in Switzerland was a chance to photograph all of that, the Swiss landscape, the quiet elegance, the nature surrounding the space as much as the space itself.
It was also, unexpectedly, a homecoming. I had lived in Switzerland at eighteen, as an exchange student, surrounded by rivers, mountains, and new words I was learning to pronounce. It had been almost a decade since I had returned. Shooting for Le Clay felt like reconnecting with landscapes, flavors, and scents that once felt so familiar — a quiet love letter to Swiss nature and understated elegance.
