Hawthorne Hill was the Oakwood Ohio home of Orville Wright. Oakwood is a beautiful suburb of Dayton Ohio, just south of the city limits. It is a large, beautiful, White House-like home atop a grand hill facing downtown Dayton. This property is currently managed by Dayton History, Dayton’s historic property organization which also manages Carillon Historical Park.
I have wanted to photograph this historic Dayton mansion for years, and I finally did it in March 2021, at least on the outside. I will be. working with them in the next few years to photograph the interior of one of Dayton’s most important and iconic mansions. This is in a gorgeous neighborhood with thousands of vehicles driving by only a few streets later. I am sure most people don’t even know about one of Gem City’s best-kept secrets. I enjoy being a Dayton commercial photographer.
