photography & multimedia for telling a community’s many stories looks like…
visualizing a community’s many identities
Community context is critical in laying the foundation for providing a comprehensive view of a place and gaining a window into the residents and people who make each community unique. Photos of the community can help identify areas of assets and opportunity. These photos can also be tailored to meet various needs that reflect the many facets of community identity.
finding the right photo
All reports, graphic, and marketing materials need photographic support to provide visual examples of a project idea. These examples should also be reflective of the locality and/or region.

telling a good story
Storytelling amplifies personal voices and adds transparency to a project’s process
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.
