ARCHITECTURE


ARCHITECTURE This collection is designed to showcase my architectural photography, focussing on modern works, though I photograph historic buildings too and have a substantial catalogue in that genre. I’ve been visiting and photographing architecture for forty years. The challenge of capturing the interplay of light and shade, form, texture, colour and the relationship with the environment continues to intrigue and excite me. For commercial commissions, I shoot on a tripod-mounted Nikon full-frame DSLR, using whatever lens suits the situation. The RAW image files are edited on a colour-calibrated iMac and output in a format to suit the client’s requirements. This collection is but a sample. Get in touch if you’d like to learn more.
