Building Character: How to Capture the Personality of a Building

In this presentation, you will discover the secrets behind photographing architecture and how to capture a building’s unique personality.

A successful architectural photograph isn’t measured by straight lines alone! Think beyond simply photographing a building. You are interpreting someone’s vision, perhaps representing a community landmark, showcasing the proud work of an enormous team, or even evoking nostalgia. All of that takes some thoughtful planning!

Anna will guide you through the essentials of architectural photography, including:

  • Learn to see a building as a living entity
  • Train your eye to find its character strengths
  • What lens? What f-stop?
  • Demystify colour temperatures and light sources
  • Learn to reflect how a building is used
  • Perspective, it’s all in your perspective

You will come away with fresh skills to see buildings in a new way and give your architectural images the dazzle they deserve.
