Why Great Architecture (And Photography!) Should Tell a Story – Ole Scheeren’s TED Talk

Why Great Architecture (And Photography!) Should Tell a Story – Ole Scheeren’s TED Talk

by Justin Szeremeta
German architect Ole Scheeren’s TED talk from a few years ago has inspired me both as an architect and a photographer.  Founder and principal of the architecture firm that bears his name, Büro Ole Scheeren, Scheeren’s talk underscores his belief that ‘form follows fiction’ and that buildings must do much more than simply provide form to accommodate functional needs.

Start Charging These Fees Today

by Brandon Vogts
Most of us love being photographers, but let’s face it: we don’t do this for fun. Don’t get me wrong—I’m grateful to have the opportunity to express myself creatively and earn a living doing something I enjoy. But that second part, the “earn a living” part, comes at the expense of my own sanity if the compensation for the work is not equitable.

AI-Powered Sky Replacement Tool Coming to Adobe Photoshop

AI-Powered Sky Replacement Tool Coming to Adobe Photoshop

by Brandon Vogts
Sky replacements have long been standard practice in architectural photography. However, the existing tools to do so remain, in my opinion, somewhat haphazard. Some skies are an easy slam-dunk, capable of being replaced in a few clicks using something as simple as the Tragic Wand or Quick Selection tool.
Six Artists to Study for Architectural Photography

Six Artists to Study for Architectural Photography

by Dane Alonso
Knowing how to accurately represent space as seen by the human eye into a bidimensional media is relatively new. Early art depictions tend to focus on the spiritual and not on a literal representation of the world. Size and proportion of the subjects responded to hierarchy levels.
Architecture and Chill: The Built Space in Films

Architecture and Chill: The Built Space in Films

by Dane Alonso
I must confess that I have never pressed the record button on my camera. Lately, the growing number of video platforms and the demand for architectural video has made me think twice about dabbling in video. Watching or re-watching films paying special attention to the role of architecture is a powerful tool and source of inspiration available to anyone interested in both architectural photography and video.In

by Justin Szeremeta
Do I need a tilt-shift lens to photograph tall buildings?  It’s a question I get a lot.  The quick answer is pretty straightforward.  Do you want to do it professionally?  If so, yes, you need one (actually you need two).  Do you want to do it as a hobby?

No More Tall Buildings: China Declares an End to the Skyscraper Era

by Justin Szeremeta
I am absolutely infatuated with tall buildings.  Mike Kelley has his airplanes, I’ve got my skyscrapers.  Or so I thought.  For more than two decades, China (where I am based) has experienced unprecedented growth in the number of constructed high-rise buildings, but alas we may be seeing the end of an era for skyscrapers in the Middle Kingdom.

The Best Budget Set-Up For Beginner Architectural Photographers

The Best Budget Set-Up For Beginner Architectural Photographers

by Usman Dawood
Architectural photography is one of those genres that tends to have quite a high entry cost. Although there are inexpensive gear options available, wide-angle and tilt-shift lenses generally come with a hefty price tag. For someone just starting out, a $1,900 lens might be a little out of reach.
