Garden & Gun - Iron Horse Metal Works

There’s something about watching people make things that draws me in. I had the great pleasure to photograph the team from Iron Horse Metal Works for Garden & Gun, and being in a forge is just cool. I mean, it’s hot at times, but it’s cool.

The story is for their Garden Issue and ultimately about an incredible pavilion Iron Horse crafted for an equally-incredible home (and truly, the detail work on this thing is bonkers), but no surprise to me that my main attraction was the creation process. Here are some of the shots from the forge (and one at the end of the pavilion—I’ll probably post again about the details).

Thanks to Brady (last portrait in this post) for the hospitality, Quinn for looking cool doing the forge work, and Maggie / Kate at G&G for the excuse to hang out with this crew.
