I have a passion for photography. I love it!!! So the other day I went over to the Cotton Mills in Simpsonville to take some photos for fun. As I was there I was thinking how cool it would be to know the stories of what went on there. Can you imagine what the brick has seen while sitting there?
For those of you who aren't familiar with the area and the Mills revitalization here is the story. We have a lot of empty mills in South Carolina that were once textile mills. At one point, that was the industry of the area. Those mills haves since shut down, but what to do with the buildings? Well they are taking the wonderful brick buildings with exposed beams, large windows, wood flooring and turning them into lofts. They are beautiful and during the restoration, they are trying to keep as much of the original structure that they can.
Well here are some of the photos I took on the Cotton Millsin Simpsonville before it was ready to move into. Hope you enjoy.
Integrity. That sums it up. That is how I run my business and my life. I want to always make sure it is a win-win for everyone involved. I look forward to possible working with you!

Wow! These are great pictures. Have fun doing what you do.
Wow. Interesting photos. At first it looked like Auschwitz. You have a creative flare.
That scale looking thing looks really cool! I love old buildings, very interesting.
I like your artistic perspective. In the Northeast, especially New England, they've done just that - revitalized old mills and factories, many which have historical significance. It could give your economy a bit of a boost.
Thanks to all for the complements on the photos. It was a great day spent. The funnest part that I forgot to include was that my 14 year old nephew accompanied me. This was his first time to be around photography and he had a blast. He has since gone home (he lives 8 hours away) but he is emailing me photos showing me things that he has taken since he went home. It was alot of fun to share a passion with someone.
Great pictures, Crystal!
You are a talented photographer Crystal! These are beautiful. I like them all..
