Location, Location, Location

The often quoted real estate saying, "Location, location, location" applies to successful architectural photography as well. Choosing the best angle for your project involves selecting the best point of view that tells the complete story of your design vision. That viewpoint may be from across the street, on a bridge, from another building or even from the water. Take the time to walk the perimeter (if possible) of the building, maybe look at the possibility of the roof of a neighboring building, or just from an office window nearby.


So, don't always opt for the easy, straight on "mug shot" of a structure. Unimaginative, and potentially will not show off your subject to the best ability, unless a documentary shot is what you're looking for.

Whether you were there or not, and whether we are your photographer on a project or not, if you have any questions or comments about commissioning architectural photography, please feel free to drop us a line anytime. We'd be happy to help!
