Featured ARt deco photographer: Jacia Phillips
Jacia Phillips is an architectural and fine art photographer with a true passion for Art Deco architecture. After 9 years in Chicago and Miami, she has photographically fallen head-over-heels for The Art Deco Style and makes pilgrimages to appreciate new examples of the style whenever she can.
Now based in the Kansas City area, Jacia works as a commercial photographer capturing dynamic images for clients in the architecture, construction and design industries. When she heard the historic Hall of Waters needed inspiring images to gain attention and investment for its renewal, she knew she was the one who could best present its value and potential for all to envision. She holds high hopes the healing waters will soon flow again within a beautifully re-imagined Art Deco space.
