Additionally, photography for planning + design projects builds local recognition, accountability of who is involved in the process, and ownership by the stakeholders and community. This approach is transferable to photography needs for other groups and organizations. Do these values align with your needs? Then let’s connect.

  • Storytelling is another powerful tool that can be used to highlight a community asset where photos and words are not enough. Telling a story can add personality and character to a building and place. Additionally, storytelling through media can help the public understand the role planners and urban designers play in the fabric of their communities. Other industries have leveraged storytelling, such as the culinary world. Planners and urban designers have stories to tell too.
