Architectural Photography in Austin – Casey Dunn Discusses His Philosophy and Career

Architectural Photography in Austin – Casey Dunn Discusses His Philosophy and Career

by Shawn Talbot
Regrettably, this interview was conducted almost one year ago with the plan to do a ‘part two’ but life and work have been so insanely busy for both Casey and myself that it just never happened. So before another year goes by, I figured I better at least get this part of the interview posted and hopefully in the future, we can do a second part.

Perfecting Imperfection – Meet Photographer and Architectural Retoucher Anton Ivanov

Perfecting Imperfection – Meet Photographer and Architectural Retoucher Anton Ivanov

by Lexi Taciak
The longer you look at Anton Ivanov’s work, the more things you’ll find to love. Full of life, restraint, mood, and character, each photograph is perfectly imperfect. The same can be said about Anton’s career. A short-lived stint in wedding photography because of his shyness actually allowed him to blossom as an architectural photographer.

Artificial intelligence research firm OpenAI conducted a wide-scale beta test of DALL-E, a cutting-edge software that creates images from textual descriptions (APA writer Kyrre Sundal shows a great example of its functionality here).

Jiri Lizler is based in The Czech Republic and specializes in hospitality photography. We connected recently via email for this interview. Shawn:  Jiri, thank you very much for answering these questions for the readers of APAlmanac.
