CHRIS MOTTALINI

is a Hudson Valley-based photographer, specializing in atmospheric ‘portraits’ of architecture, interiors and design.

Mottalini’s work has been widely published, commissioned and exhibited.

Most recently, Chris  has photographed special projects about Anais Nin’s former home in LA, Hawaiian Modernism, the George Nakashima family compound and a new book project about the Louis Armstrong House in Queens. Mottalini is also currently collaborating on a still life project with Nino, his five year old son.

 

Mottalini's first book (which set him on the path to becoming a photographer of architecture and interiors) is a final portrait of three  demolished Paul Rudolph-designed homes. His recent self-published book, "Land of Smiles", is a quiet, strange and surreal exploration of the landscapes of Thailand.

Mottalini recently photographed ‘Mountain House’, a new book featuring 21 incredible mountain homes from Patagonia to South Korea to South Africa, etc. 

He lives in the Hudson Valley with his family and Burger the giant corgi.
