Civic Architecture Photography – Blue Earth County Government Center
This past fall I had the privilege of photographing the Blue Earth County Government center in Mankato for ISG. This was my first civic architectural photography assignment.
The Top 3 Things I Consider When Editing an Architectural Photo
Last week I shared the images of the rustic cabin in Grand Rapids, MN. I thought that it would be interesting to share what the editing process looks like for just one of the images. Believe it or not, this was actually a relatively simple edit.
Interiors Photography – Rustic Lake Cabin With Modern Fireplace
Last week, I talked about storytelling with photos. This shoot was a perfect example how why storytelling is important. So what does storytelling have to do with photos of a fireplace? Well, how many times have you looked at a photo of a fireplace and had an emotional reaction to it like you get with a book or a movie? My guess would be never. Ok, maybe once – but probably not.
Can Interiors and Architecture Photography Help Grow Your Business?
Storytelling has become kind of a cliche in the business world over the last few years, but the truth is – it does often matter when it comes to your business. When people look at your logo, or think about your business – you want them to experience a positive emotional reaction of some sort.
Architectural Videos: Using Filmmaking to Tell a Better Story of Your Projects
Last week, I featured some of the photos of the Northern Lakeside Home. From the photos, you probably have a pretty good idea as to what the space looks like. Maybe even how it might feel to be in the home? That is one of the main goals I have when it comes to interiors and architecture photography… to document the space in a way that makes the viewer want to step inside.
Modern Architecture Photography – Contemporary Lake Home
This past fall, I had the pleasure of working once again with Renae Keller on a modern home in Northern MN. We arrived 2 nights before the shoot as we had scheduled a scouting day the following morning. I prefer to do a scout on each shoot as it helps me to pre-visualize the shoot day and helps things run smoothly – allowing us to maximize the amount on time spent shooting.
Save Money by Cost-Sharing Your Next Architectural Photography Project
Photography is often the last step of a long, often complicated – and expensive project. A lot of blood, sweat, and tears goes into the projects that my clients create. Photography is the evidence to the world that this project not only happened, but was well designed and thought out. As a professional photographer, it is not only my job to press the button on my big, fancy camera, it is my job to represent my clients in the best light possible with all of the tools that I have at my disposal… and the camera is just a small part of that toolkit.
How Much Does Architectural Photography Cost?
For some, professional photography can be an expensive investment for your business. For context, let’s take a step back and break down the actual costs of an architectural photographer. After this, I will show you how to significantly reduce this cost…
Scouting Commercial Architecture During Covid
The only word that comes to mind when I go back to the first couple weeks of things shutting down due to Covid is “bizarre”. Like many others, it had me strongly contemplating a career shift, but not in a completely different field. Prior to Covid, I had considered myself primarily a residential interiors and architectural photographer…
Architecturally Designed Storage Facility in Mankato, MN
I had been driving by this location regularly and I was never quite sure what was going up. Was it a new retail location? When I found out it was the Storage Lounge, I was thinking that it was a retail store that sold storage and organization supplies. Would make sense, right? I would certainly welcome it…
