A Bold Space for Future Thinkers

The new STEM Center at Mt. San Jacinto College isn’t just a building — it’s a visual declaration of purpose. Designed with crisp lines, bold color, and a forward-thinking layout, it represents the college’s investment in innovation, technology, and future generations of students.

CW Driver Companies brought this structure to life. I was brought in to capture it with clarity, color, and precision.

Exterior Architecture

Strong lines. Red metal panels. A standout facade that demands attention.

The building’s exterior uses vibrant color contrast and high-performance materials to signal modernity. I timed the shoot for ideal daylight and used wide focal lengths to highlight geometry, massing, and symmetry.

STEM Labs & Learning Spaces

Clean, collaborative, and designed to support learning at scale.

Inside, large lab islands and neutral finishes keep the focus on functionality. We captured the flow of these rooms — light-filled, intentional, and scalable for student movement.

Common Areas & Collaboration Zones

Lively, accessible, and student-ready.

Soft seating, open corridors, and bold ceiling features make these spaces both efficient and inviting. I leaned into perspective and ceiling height to give every image depth and a sense of scale.

The Goal

CW Driver Companies needed imagery that would serve multiple business units:

  • Visual proof of project delivery

  • Portfolio content for architects, designers, and subs

  • PR and marketing visuals for the college

  • High-res assets for awards, digital, and print

THE PROCESS

Every photo was planned. We coordinated around weather and lighting to optimize the reflective materials.

Key focus areas:

  • Hero shots for press and awards

  • Daylight-balanced interiors

  • Clean post-processing to preserve true colors and textures

  • Shot sequencing that told a visual story from approach → entry → experience

The Results

✔️ 40+ fully retouched, web-and-print-ready images

✔️ Used across marketing decks, PR releases, and digital campaigns

✔️ Elevated brand perception of the build

✔️ Made CW Driver’s craftsmanship tangible through visuals

Haley Hill

I am Haley Hill, a thirty something year old Fuji photographer capturing all of the things; food, architecture, events, you name it, I’ll shoot it (except your wedding, I’ll leave that to Still Music). When I’m not snapping pics, you can find me in the ocean, at Corepower or rapping in my band Girlboy.
