ALLIANCE BERNSTEIN | NASHVILLE, TN

Alliance Bernstein, a global investment management firm, relocated its world headquarters from New York City to Nashville, Tennessee. This move reflects the city’s growing prominence as a business and cultural hub.

I was commissioned as the architectural photographer for this extensive multi-day project, documenting their newly designed headquarters located in the heart of downtown Nashville.

The office spans the top floors of 501 Commerce (attached to 5th & Broadway), offering breathtaking views of the Nashville skyline and overlooking Broadway. With careful planning to navigate where the sun was going to be throughout the project, I focused on using natural light and the building’s architectural lines to create visually compelling compositions.
