School Architectural & Interior Photography: Capturing the Essence of Educational Spaces

A Photographic Journey of Innovative School Architecture

As an architectural photographer for new school builds, I have the privilege of capturing many new school builds across Alberta and BC for school furniture distributors, general contractors, architects and engineers.

My goal is to portray the vision and intent of the builders, engineers and architects, accentuating the innovative features and functional aspects of the school buildings. Through careful consideration of every angle and perspective, I strive to reveal the seamless integration of aesthetics and practicality, highlighting the interplay between form and function.

By capturing the intricate details, unique design elements, and impeccable craftsmanship of their projects, professionals can effectively convey their expertise to potential clients and collaborators. These compelling visual representations not only serve as a testament to their capabilities but also enable them to stand out in the industry, leaving a lasting impression on viewers and building trust in their abilities.

MY PROCESS

My commercial photography process blends meticulous planning, creative vision, and technical precision to capture captivating images that elevate your marketing materials.
  • 1.
    Consultation & Quote
    • We begin with an email questionnaire about your project and your vision. Understanding details like the usage, styling and mood, square footage and number of photos will help me determine if I’m a good fit for your project. From there I will quote, working with you on budget and timeline. If everything aligns I will send over a detailed contract.
  • 2.
    Plan & Shoot
    • Once we have a signed contract we work together on the details for the shoot as well as a final shot list. On the planned shoot day, you’ll see me and my tripod, a few cameras and lenses. I don’t carry a lot of equipment and use available light and multiple long exposures that I edit into one final image. My approach revolves around the artful play of light and shadow, accentuating the distinctive design and structural elements within each space.
  • 3.
    Post Production
    • I’m drawn to a more natural post-processing technique over the artificiality of HDR images. Once the shoot is complete, I’ll meticulously combine multiple exposures to create the most realistic and interesting composition. I retouch the images to enhance their overall quality including colour correction, removal of any distracting elements, and sharpening.
