Jesse Ramirez - Weaponize Commercial Photography & Video - This was an extensive remodel and addition project that totally transformed an existing residence into a spectacular showpiece. The eclectic blend of Mediterranean, Moroccan, Spanish, and Tuscan influences... and mixtures of rustic and more formal finishes made for a dynamic finished result. The inclusion of extensive landscaping and a modern pool topped off an amazing project.
