Bidding and Estimating: How I Landed A Dream Assignment in Europe

by György Palkó
Since the beginning of my photography career, I’ve had a list of projects that I dreamed of shooting. While most of the projects were out of my reach at the time, as my career has grown, buildings on my “dream assignment” list have become more accessible — while my goal list has grown!

Why I Don’t Scout Without A Deposit (And You Shouldn’t, Either)

Why I Don’t Scout Without A Deposit (And You Shouldn’t, Either)

by Mike Kelley
A scout is an integral part of the architectural photography process, but one mistake I see a lot of photographers making is that they agree to a scout before they are in contract to complete the shoot. It’s gone pear-shaped on me enough that I implemented a policy requiring a deposit before any scouting takes place; here’s why.Scouting

Lightroom Just Received a Huge Workflow Update: Are You Switching Back?

Lightroom Just Received a Huge Workflow Update: Are You Switching Back?

by Usman Dawood
Adobe has recently updated Lightroom and some of the new features are pretty useful. As architectural photographers, I’m sure most of us are pretty familiar with having huge numbers of layers in Photoshop. Light painting and compositing can cost a lot of storage and many of us have become accustomed to using PSB files, especially with the advent of higher-megapixel cameras where only a few layers will put you over the size limit.
Photography Doesn’t Actually Pay Your Bills—Sales Does

Photography Doesn’t Actually Pay Your Bills—Sales Does

by Brandon Vogts
Although we’re required to wear many hats as photographers, we tend to think of ourselves as artists first, treating other roles as secondary, with sales often regarded as only an afterthought. The truth is that we are, first and foremost, salespeople.

Art Sanchez Skates Into Architectural Photography & Videography

Art Sanchez Skates Into Architectural Photography & Videography

by Veeral Patel
I absolutely love cycling, so when I think of Mallorca off the coast of Spain, the first thing pops into my mind is the winter training camps for all the professional racing teams. To be honest with you, I’ve never really made much of a connection between architecture and Mallorca — an island that is only 1,405 square miles.That

Why I Haven’t Worked in Four Months (And Why I’m Getting Back Surgery)

by Mike Kelley
For the last decade, I’ve been dealing with varying levels of on-again, off-again back pain and the associated frustrations that come along with it. From almost non-existent to “I literally can’t even get out of bed,” the pain has been with me in some form daily, affecting work, relationships, and so much more.
