Architectural Photography

I love architectural photography, it allows you to be creative as you want in order to get the shots you need to show off the design of the building, you get away from the wide-angle 14-20mm real estate shot and you really get to look at angle and light differently. Generally, a longer focal length is more key to shooting architectural shoots. You normally would use somewhere in the region of 24-70mm on interiors if the shoot interior calls for it 19mm.

Light is even more key and timing is crucial as the light would really give the feeling you or the client needs for the room/building you are shooting. either sunset, blue hour or a beautiful blue day really would set the mood. It can make or a photo.

Being a photographer that lives so close to London, the London skyline is on the doorstep for me, I have some of the best architecture in the world right under my nose and I haven’t been taking advantage of it. I always walk past the building I’ve posted below and this time I stopped and took 10mins to shoot it.
