Tumbleweed Lounge: Capturing the Spirit of New Mexico
Traveling to Tularosa felt like stepping into a postcard. The desert’s vast landscape provided an extraordinary backdrop for the project. The emerging town pulsed with creative energy and a strong sense of place—a perfect place for a distillery that embraces both local tradition and modern sophistication. The Tumbleweed Lounge project is a celebration of craftsmanship and design innovation. The owners—a warm, down-to-earth couple—wanted a space that could not only produce quality sotol but one that would also pay homage to New Mexico’s rich cultural and artisanal heritage.
Working on the Tumbleweed Lounge project was more than a photographic assignment; it was a journey into the soul of New Mexico’s artistic and natural landscapes. Each image I captured reflected not only the physical beauty of the distillery but also the passion and dedication of everyone involved—from the visionary owners to the skilled designers who brought the space to life. It’s a project where every element—from interior finishes to exterior vistas—played a crucial role in crafting a holistic experience. I am incredibly proud to have been the photographer behind this project, and I look forward to seeing how the story of Tumbleweed Lounge unfolds as it continues to capture the hearts of locals and visitors alike.
