Four our February 2010 issue, Williams traveled to London to capture the space of Bruce Thatcher and Kirsty Leighton. "A lot of the modern extensions to old houses are not fully conceived but the owners  and architect William Tozer went all the way with thisn home and the result is stunning," he said upon his return.

Shortly thereafter, Williams flew to the Windy City to photograph a sumptuous meal at the home of food lovers Arthur and Chelsea Jackson, he a chef at Bijan's Birstro and she an editorial director for university publications as well as a certified pastry chef. "Never have I eaten so well on a shoot," Williams said.

Our June 2010 issue took Williams to the Indonesian capital of Jakarta, where an architect designed a home for which 90-percent of the materials were sourced from within a one-kilometer radius of the site.
