Architectural Photography: Storytelling for Spaces

An atypical material, an original structure, an intriguing light… Every space has its own architectural identity. Whether it’s a house, a business, or a museum, photography is able to immortalize this essence to convey a fascinating tale with the power to transport you there instantly.

In this online course, the photographers from Bruto studio teach you how to tell the story behind an architectural space. For your final project, create a photoreport of the place of your choice, consisting of a photographic series and a presentation of the result. Showcase your favorite places through lights, angles, and retouching!

Discover some of the basic concepts of photography. Cecilia and Matías show you how light and composition work, with a focus on the rule of thirds. They also teach you about the equipment—whether it’s an analog camera, a digital camera, or a smartphone.With this theoretical knowledge in mind, and having analyzed the architectural space of your choice, look for the best way to build a photographic narrative. Define the technical details of the shoot, then get to work on taking your photos!
