Architectural Photographer
Adam Coupe has worked as an architectural photographer for over 10 years throughout the UK and Europe. What makes us different is our experience. We have a reputation for completing architectural photography shoots efficiently and with the minimum amount of disruption – and without the need for a survey visit prior to the shoot.
Before starting any architectural photography project we ensure we fully understand the key design elements of your scheme. We are comfortable adapting to your preferences, or if you prefer we can also be relied upon to interpret and capture your project with an independent and fresh eye.
We work both with clients who prefer on-shoot art direction, where results are seen ‘real time’ and optimised, and clients who prefer us to complete the photography independently. As experienced architectural photographers, we find both approaches work equally well.
