I specialize in state capitols and county courthouses. I have photographed all 50 U.S. state capitols. A set of a favorite exterior photo of each capitol is located here:

Though I have conducted original research and have consulted many additional sources in compiling the architectural histories of each of the buildings I have photographed, the following sources in particular have been quite helpful:
- The Courthouses Of Texas: A Guide, by Mavis P. Kelsey, Sr. and Donald H. Dyal (College Station: Texas A&M University Press, 1993).
- Historic Texas Courthouses, by Michael Andrews (Albany, TX: Bright Sky Press, 2006).
- Courthouses Of California: An Illustrated History, edited by Ray McDevitt (Berkeley: Heyday Books, 2001).
- Virginia's Historic Courthouses, by John O. and Margaret T. Peters (Charlottesville: University of Virginia Press, 1995).
- State Houses: America's 50 State Capitol Buildings, by Susan W. Thrane and Tom Patterson (Erin, ON: Boston Mills Press, 2005).
I appreciate receiving comment and invitations to submit my images to groups, but I prefer not to receive comments with very large GIFs, particularly animated ones. I will delete comments which include such irrelevant graphics.

Alex Mason Photography says:
"I love architectural photography, so naturally I love seeing new uploads from Capitolshots Photography! His voluminous body of work from all over the country is priceless. He has a unique eye for angles and composition, so his photos are always intriguing.
He works wonders with the wide angle lens! Many of his new uploads are instant favorites. If you haven't checked out his photo set of each state capitol building, you're missing out on one of the best sets on Flickr. Add him as a Flickr contact; you won't regret it!"9th September, 2010
