Addendum Exteriour Brief - Bridges

Research Photographers in Architecture

As in my interior brief purposely I haven't researched on architecture photographers. Although I have always been very keen on architecture and therefore have seen plenty of images in my life I didn't want to 'spoil' my view on the locations I have chosen. Godfather of photography Henri Cartier-Bresson used architecture as a strong element in his work to frame or enhance his image. Another legendary photographer would be Eugene Atget who documented old Paris painstakingly. After finishing my brief I took a closer look on Daniel Hopkinson, a Manchester based photographer specialised in architectural photography. I am proud to say, that my approach on getting my images are similar to his work. He works strongly with the graphic elements of a building and also likes to include people in his images to show the dynamic and impact of architecture in everyday's life.
