Architectural Photographer
An architectural photographer works in a very specialized area of commercial photography most often separated out as an expertise of its own. We have specialized as architectural photographers including both interior and exterior photography since we started the studio in 1996. This type of work has gained significant importance in the last number of years due to social media. Never before has an architectural photographer had so much significance for their clients. From Interior designers, builders, and architects to hotels, resorts, restaurants, and spas, the primary buying decisions are most often done online prior to any initial phone or email contact. How are those decisions being made? Photographs! Architectural photography or the photographs your website displays is one of the biggest determinations of whether you will receive that initial inquiry.
Interior or Exterior photography – what needs to be considered?
Lighting, composition, and perspective are all things that a professional architectural photographer will consider when creating the photographs of your space. What time of day will work best? What angles show the space? And what will the viewer be focusing on when they see the photographs? In addition as an architecture photographer, we also need to ensure the space is well staged, furniture nicely arranged, clutter free and clean. It is often said that the camera will see things differently than the human eye, and this is very much correct. Our eye will automatically adjust to the space and what we are seeing, but the camera lens only sees and processes things differently. This is where the work of a professional photographer comes in to supplement the space with light if required and show angles that the camera can see with little distortion.
An interior designer’s or architect’s biggest asset is often their portfolio of work that they can show to perspective clients . Therefore their digital portfolio display on their website is the first point of contact for many consumers. The requirement to invest in the services of a professional architectural photographer is paramount, and done well, will see a quick and substantial return.
