A few months ago, Design Imaging Studios was selected by the awesome folks at Big Ass Solutions to capture a beautiful outdoor kitchen at a New England home that features two fans from their Haiku line of ceiling fans. We are thrilled to add Big Ass Solutions to our growing list of innovative building product manufacturer clients. The surprise schwag was icing on the cake!

The marketing team at BAS understands that high quality professional imagery is key to promoting their brand and selling their growing product line. If you are a building product manufacturer or offer products through your A/E/C sales business let's talk about how we can produce eye catching marketing materials and increase the power of your brand.

2015: A Year in Review with Design Imaging Studios

1/9/2016

Dear Friends, Clients and Supporters,

With 2015 behind us, and already knee-deep in 2016, I wanted to take a moment to look back at the whirlwind that was last year. It began in January with moving the business to Providence, RI, where we are now proudly incorporated. The next twelve months were filled with travel, smiling clients old and new, photo shoots from the ground and the air, awards, publications, exciting prospects, and last but certainly not least: hard work and dedicated service. We strive to provide the best imagery and the best service, and that means being more than a photography provider. It means assisting with the backend work, helping marketing departments make magic happen with tireless coordination and communication, supporting web and graphic design on the behalf of our clients, actively seeking publication and awards opportunities to gain our clients exposure. It's no surprise to me that these efforts are working for both our clients and the Design Imaging Studios brand. I am immensely excited to keep the ball rolling in 2016 and help businesses in the A/E/C industry highlight their best work, showcase their brand and continue to grow.

Cheers to a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year!

Design Imaging Studios Photographs Commercial Metal Roofing Projects Throughout the Northeast

1/21/2015

by Christian Scully

Ah, a new year and a new blog post! Welcome, and I hope 2015 is off to a great start for everybody.

Compelled by the number of commercial roofs we have photographed in the past 12 months, somebody recently asked me if I specialized in "roof photography". While I do cherish my time spent on rooftops, and hope to shoot many more, I don't think narrowing our focus down to just roofs would be sustainable!

I'd like to share a project I very much enjoyed that has just wrapped up after a few months of work both planning and shooting. 


In October of 2014 The Garland Company, based in Cleveland, Ohio, commissioned Design Imaging Studios to document three completed commercial roofing projects throughout the Northeast. 

The first project was a building called The Playland Ice Casino, an ice rink located within Playland, a historic amusement park in Rye, New York. Built in 1927, the amusement park sits boldly along the Long Island Sound shores. The majestic rink, was added to the park years later. After Hurricane Sandy in 2012, damage to the roof required repair and The Garland Company was sought to provide a new durable metal roof. I found the result to be a perfect fit for the structure. And speaking as a former hockey player myself, the interior of the rink is powerful and beautiful. Standing on the ice, I could feel the history. The woven wooden arches provide a view that tops most rinks that I have skated in (and in 15 years of playing the sport, I have many rinks to compare).

The rink now plays host to many youth and high school hockey programs as well as the Manhattanville College hockey program.

The second location was in Leicester, Massachusetts at Becker College. The Garland Company provided the roof of the new campus center, a beautiful brick building with an adjacent tower and walkway connecting to the old campus center, and well-landscaped grounds. The stars aligned for this shoot, actually the building and sun aligned! The late autumn sunrise warmly lit the building's front.

Winter weather delayed the installation of the third and final roofing project on the list, a smaller section of roof at a New Hampshire high school. Again we were blessed with some great morning light, and access to the roof allowed for some more captivating views of the smaller project.  

When the project was finished we received a wonderful review from our lovely client at The Garland Company. We are so lucky to work alongside kind and talented people and companies in this industry, and this project was no exception. 

"We connected with Christian via Thumbtack.com and have been more than pleased with his professionalism, flexibility and quality of work. We hired Christian to photograph three buildings where our commercial roofing products were installed. We were continually impressed with images he produced and the considerable time and effort he took to provide us with a variety of angles. I would highly recommend Christian for any architectural photography needs you may have."

We've been busy.

And we'd love to show you where we have been.

Greetings! It has been quite the awesome year so far for Design Imaging Studios. We've had great opportunities to shoot in Western NY, Upstate NY, Boston, Metro-west, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Cape Cod. We've met lots of great new friends and clients along the way, and are moving full steam ahead into the Autumn and Winter seasons, squeezing in plenty of exterior shoots before the snow. I'm very excited to take a few minutes and share with you some recent work. Thank you for your support! I look forward to capturing many more spaces in the coming months.

Top and bottom Images: We happily returned to the Harley School in Rochester, NY to capture the
Commons building with some greenery to contrast our earlier winter images created in March 2014.
Interior Design and Building
We shot 3 beautiful kitchens over the past few months for Master's Touch, including this one in Norfolk, MA. View more pics from this shoot on our blog.
We've also spent a few great shoots with Casey Timm from Studio C Interiors, including this contemporary home interior in Wayland, MA. 
Commercial Building Products & Design
I've spent more time on rooftops in the last few months than I could have imagined. These skylight images were shot in Andover, MA for Duro-Last Roofing, Inc. They also sent us out to Newburgh, NY for another skylight and interior series where we also captured aerials.
Client Testimonial:

"His photos captured the elements of our roofing system perfectly. Not only that, but he brought an artistic eye to it that made a sometimes bland subject exciting. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Christian again."
Oh, what the heck, for good measure: here is a beautiful commercial green roof atop Whole Foods in Lynnfield, MA. The sunrise from this elevated perspective was perfect.
Editorial Publication
Our 10 page story in Cape Cod Home magazine should still be available on some newsstands if you have not yet taken a peek. It features a fantastic Cape Cod bed and breakfast, The Captain David Kelley House.
We were excited to return a few weeks ago to the B & B to capture some seasonal interiors and exteriors and enjoy an awesome stay. 

Thank you for taking the time to view our newsletter! More images are available on our website, we just recently updated the portfolio galleries to include newer work. Be sure to join us on Facebook and LinkedIn at the links below. And if there are any exteriors or interiors we can help you capture in New England, New York or beyond, please reach out. Enjoy the rest of the week!

How to Market Building Materials: Hiring a Professional Photographer to Display Products and Their Effects

7/31/2014

0 Comments

 
by Christian Scully

When many people think about architecture, or buildings in general, they consider the finished product, the structure as a whole. To make that design work, however, and operate most efficiently and effectively, building materials are sourced from manufacturers around the world. Precisely designed metals, high efficiency glass, strong plastics, specially treated woods, brick and concrete, all come in endless forms of railings, sidings, windows, skylights, roofing materials, floors, doors, ducts and dimmers. 

Though these products may not be the focus of attention to passers-by, or even seen for that matter, they require just as much, if not more marketing and advertising by the manufacturers. They are not always the sexiest of products, but regardless of material, form and function, need to grab the attention of architects, designers, builders and contractors. Online, in sourcebooks, regional and national building publications, trade shows and direct mail, manufacturers spend countless hours and resources marketing their building materials. 

"Building Materials Need Love Too"

With all of their efforts, imagery is always at the core of marketing. A badly lit, low quality, poorly exposed and quickly snapped photograph, taken on-site with an iPhone by the Project Manager is not going to do the materials justice. Without professional photography, manufacturers are relying upon material specifications alone to sway potential customers. That may be all they need... but there are thousands of material products available in the marketplace. Building materials need love too: they need professional photography.  

Recently, Duro-Last Roofing, based in Michigan hired Design Imaging Studios to photograph their new line of skylights and roofing materials, which were used on an office building in Andover, MA. The task was to capture the skylights and products used on top of the roof, and then capture their effects on the building's interior. The result is a dynamic series of photographs displaying the quality and beautiful lighting effects possible with the Duro-Last Roofing skylights.
