Natural light in architectural photography

Architecture does more than house and safeguard the countless works of art found across Italy. Of ten, buildings are themselves works of art. Knowing how to observe them — to "walk them", as Le Corbusier put it — is a skill BAMS has refined over time.

The studio's photographs capture their interplay of light. They render the solids and voids that buildings project into space, respecting the accuracy of line and form — and, in turn, the two- dimensionality of the image.

Photography of historic and cultural buildings

A meticulous search for the light that shapes architecture. The use of specialised pneumatic telescopic poles up to 17 metres high. Constantly updated shooting techniques and equipment.

These are just some of the reasons why BAMS Photo has been called on to work at world-renowned cultural sites, including:

  • Chapel of Notre-Dame du Haut by Le Corbusier, Ronchamp (France)
  • Santa Maria del Fiore, Florence (Italy)
  • Chapel of the Rosary by Matisse, Vence (France)
  • Musei Civici, Verona (Italy)
  • Basilica of San Zeno, Verona (Italy)

Photography for new developments and redevelopments

The studio's architectural documentation service is also aimed at companies and commercial businesses, covering both new real-estate developments and building redevelopment projects. To produce a professional photography service capable of capturing the character of a building, BAMS works on multiple fronts: interior and exterior shots taken from the ground and by drone.

Among the projects completed in this field, several examples of architectural photography in Milan stand out:

  • Vetra Building, Milan, Lombardy
  • Il Prisma, Via Cassala, Milan, Lombardy
  • Il Prisma, Via Bernina, Milan, Lombardy
  • Monte Rosa 91, Milan, Lombardy

Industrial archaeology photography

The studio's strong sensitivity to documenting change in the landscape also comes through in its extensive photographic documentation of industrial archaeology in the Brescia area. This commitment to visually preserving the past extends from architectural photography in Brescia to Milan, with the documentation of several former psychiatric hospitals (Volo nella Follia / “Flight into Madness”).
