New York / Chicago

Est. 2014 — 212 commissions

Booking from Nov 2026

Buildings, photographed the way they were drawn.

We photograph architecture for the people who designed it. Tilt-shift lenses keep the verticals true, the light is planned weeks ahead, and every set is sequenced like a walk through the plans.

One building, one sequence.

Plates from the Wave Pavilion set: approach, structure, interior. Ordered the way a visitor meets the building, not by which frame looks best on its own.

Curved stainless steel panels of a concert hall against the sky

Pl. 04 — Approach, south-west. 17 mm TS-E.

Angled concrete columns under a cantilevered slab

Pl. 07 — Structure, colonnade. 45 mm TS-E.

Sculptural spiral staircase in a concrete atrium

Pl. 11 — Interior, main stair. 24 mm TS-E.

Concrete steps crossed by the shadows of tree branches

Fig. 02 — Light study, 3:40 pm, 21 March. The shadow was the brief.

04 / Approach

Four rules we don’t break.

R.01

Verticals stay vertical.

Every exterior is shot on tilt-shift glass. No keystoning, no software warping that bends your mullions.

R.02

Light is scheduled.

We model the sun path for each façade and book the hour it works — sometimes that means three visits.

R.03

People for scale, never for decoration.

A figure on the stair tells you its width. A model laughing at a laptop tells you nothing about the building.

R.04

Delivered as a sequence.

You receive a numbered set, ready for award submissions and press kits, with captions and technical data.
