Whilst most of my architectural photography work is in Dorset and Hampshire I am happy to provide quotations for work further afield, including (but by no means limited to) Berkshire, Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, Surrey, West Sussex and Wiltshire. And London of course.
And nice places in the sunshine.
1 - Building photography is my specialism

Building photography is what I do.
I specialise in architectural photography, and all other aspects of photographing the built environment. I specialise in photographing buildings and anything related to buildings.
And this is what I love doing – photographing buildings. photographing architecture.
And I am a firm believer that you do things much better if you enjoy doing them.
2 - I can photograph your building wherever it is in its lifecycle.
Whatever you need photographing building wise I can help you. If you need any of the following photographing give me a shout
- A plot of land in the planning phase
- An existing building prior to refurbishment
- A live construction site
- A completed building or development or
- A building being marketed for any purpose
When I say building I mean building, structure, plant, infrastructure, site, space or just an empty field awaiting some cool new development. Anyhting that is built basically, or about to be built.
I have successfully photographed all of these things (above) and lots else in-between. I do know about this stuff by the way.
3 - I have written helpful stuff for clients
I have written a few nblog posts which provide guidance to architectural and construction clients about getting the photography that you need.

I know, I said I photograph buildings. I photograph buildings in nice places, and also their surrounding environments.
6 - It's just me
Basically, I am my company. You only deal with me from start to finish. I agree the brief, provide you with the quote, take the photos, edit them and send the finished images to you.
Everything from start to finish.
7 - You get a high quality, bespoke, personal and professional service from me every time.
I try to make the process as easy as possible for you to get the pictures you want. My quotations are simple and concise – you always know what you are getting, and when you are getting it.
I am nice to deal with. I like people, good job really considering it is just me – the last thing you want is some grumpy person working for you! I am professional and personable and enjoy my work very much, so you will get a happy chap (unless I am concentrating or have forgotten something and am inwardly panicking!).
8 - What makes me unique?
I am a professionally qualified photographer, being an Associate Member of the British Institute of Photography (ABIPP). I am also professionally qualified in building construction, being a Member of the Chartered Institute of Building (MCIOB).
This is what makes me unique.
It is very unusual for an architectural photographer to be professionally qualified in both photography and building construction. I enjoy being able to combine my two professions to provide high quality architectural photography from an unusually well informed position.
9 - My construction and photography experience
I combine over 30 years of experience in all types of building construction, with well over 30 years of being an active photographer, learning, practising and now teaching photography.
10 - A rapid turnround of images if required
I can provide a set of fully edited images quickly if you need them. You are not waiting weeks when you deal with me, just a few days – or quicker if required. I have produced fully edited image sets by 8am the morning after an afternoon shoot - just tell me what you want and when you need it.
11 - I provide high quality imagery
I have been a student and practitioner of photography for many years. My photography work is constantly evolving and improving.
12 - There a lots of architectural photographers, so why choose me?
I am going to give you 10 reasons why you should at the very least get in touch with me to discuss whatever you need photographically.
- Professional, friendly, personal service
- Bespoke quotation with clear terms
- Creative composition with architectural understanding
- Technical correctness
- High quality imagery
- Consistency of imagery
- Just the images you need
- My distinct editing style
- Fast image turnaround
- Digital delivery
- Me. Yes I know I said ten things but there is me as well……
13 - How I price my commercial photography work
I usually work on either a half-day rate or a full day rate, so please get in touch for a quote for your architectural photography requirement. I can price any way you want so if you have other ideas just let me know and I will work something out for you.
So get in touch either by phone, email or using the contact page.
Thank you again for visiting my website, and I look forward to hearing from you.
14 - Want your construction site photographing? No problem.
I am a current CSCS card holder so live construction sites are not a problem to me. They are in fact the environment that I have worked in all my life so are completely normal to me.
15 - How my experience of construction can help you
I will turn up to your site or completed project fully equipped and ready to go on site, but also ready for that very necesary site induction and guidance on what is happening on site.
See this stuff is all very familiar to me, so you won't need to worry about me - I will just turn up and happily get on with it.
Any questions?
Please get in touch with any questions - it would be great to hear from you with your building photography related enquiry.
