It was Miller + Miller Architectural photography’s pleasure to obtain from the Chicago division of a trusted, building construction company the 15 location, multi building commercial construction architectural photography project.  The construction company has been a trusted partner in the country to manage commercial building facade projects and in turn they have trusted in us.  The client’s company translates architectural designs to engineered building enclosures.

Capture photography of their Construction Company’s best architectural projects and commercial buildings. An incredible list of locations to photograph, we were impressed upon reviewing the list of 15 buildings to photograph all remarkably constructed and engineered by the Construction Company, so we simply couldn’t wait to get started.  For each exterior building photo shoot, our client’s primary shoot desires were to showcase each building as one attention grabbing image for the company’s impressive construction marketing portfolio and feature those 15 best shots and images of the buildings as framed prints on the walls of their office.  The company’s new Chicago headquarters had blank walls, so they desired to showcase past construction projects as wall art through the hallways, boardroom, and executive staff members offices. Although only one final shot was requested, we couldn’t resist photographing this building from multiple angles, highlighting the structure’s unbelievable architecture.

This Northwestern University Bienen School of Music & Center For Musical Arts LEED Building  Photography Construction Project was 1 building out of a 15 buildings within the entire photography project.  Miller + Miller Photography is looking forward to photographing all of the Construction Company client’s showcase Commercial Buildings and Architecture over the next couple of years… not only just in Chicago, also traveling Nationwide.
