"Architectural Photography"
Last month we had an architectural photography assignment that took us to Le Conte Hospital in Sevierville, Tennessee just outside of Knoxville. This new hospital is in the Smoky Mountains and on our shoot day we were greeted with snow then clear skies. Thankfully, the snow melted enough to get a few exteriors, albeit with [...]
There are too many puns and jokes that could be made from these situations from a recent architectural photography shoot for Marriott here in Nashville. My first assistant Rory White is lightning fast with his iPhone camera to capture me in precarious situations. It never fails, regardless of how big a room is, when photographing [...]
I don’t know that I’d classify myself as “dangerous” when shooting architecture but, as documented by my trusty first assistant Rory White (and his Swiss Army Knife iPhone), standing precariously on the roof a moving truck might qualify me as a little “risky.” I spent the last two days just outside of Knoxville, Tennessee in [...]
Looking at the campus of the Vanderbilt Hospital you’d think there wasn’t any room to fit a new building. Somehow Earl Swensson Associates managed to fit this 200+ critical care tower and integrate it into existing facilities. Betsy and Ken were great to work with on this project, as was my first assistant Rory … [...]

Over the years I’ve managed to avoid many of the physical dangers of being a commercial photographer. Sure, there’s the paper cuts from sending invoices and the occasional burnt tongue from power lunches, but yesterday delivered a blow equal to that of Rocky Balboa. Most architectural photography assignments land me in relatively benign situations. There [...]
I was in Lexington, Kentucky the first part of February shooting for a large architectural firm from Nashville. Thankfully we were there before the huge ice storm crippled that part of the state. This particular architectural photography assignment was to highlight an extended care facility which was a complete redesign of an existing structure. This [...]
I was out scouting the other day on a beautiful afternoon here in the Nashville area. The results of my joy ride in an R22 helicopter are below. I love shooting aerial photography. I love it even more when I’m able to land (safely) and process images such as these. Covenant Presbyterian Church, the Natchez [...]
Another fun job. I continue to enjoy shooting interiors, particularly when the subject of these shoots is so cooperative … sitting still and just looking pretty. :: :: :: :: Ok, maybe this last one isn’t really an “interior” but I treated it as such with lighting and styling. -Kyle Dreier
