After studying music and performance at Georgia State University, James Klotz went on to work as an audio engineer for Turner Broadcasting System. At the age of 26, he struck out on his own and opened a television post production company, Synchronized Sound which later became 11th Street Communications. After 12 years creating countless nationally and internationally broadcast television shows and promotions for TNT, Cartoon Network, PBS, CNN and the like, it was time for a new challenge. The next chapter was to turn his lifelong passion of taking pictures into a career as a professional photographer of architecture, interiors and other commercial projects.
His training started early under the influence of his mother, a successful interior designer. Her knowledge and passion gave James a “jump start” into understanding design, colors and space. As he began to travel and explore less traditional styles, he discovered modernism and broadened his knowledge by studying masters like Mies van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright, Eames, Casteglioni, Gehry, Philippe Starck and Mark Newson. He began photographing that which inspired him, from contemporary to traditional, until the love of the photography and the love for interiors and architecture became one and the same.
His experience as a successful entrepreneur makes him a highly professional and capable person to work with, and his history and upbringing give him a soul charged with passion and vision for beauty in interior design and architecture.
