While Brett Drury utilizes talented architectural photography
assistants and lab technicians in his work, he is always the
sole photographer on all client projects.
His background...
In photography
Brett grew up around photography. In his youth, he assisted
his mother, a leading wildlife and nature photographer, for eight
years. This built the foundation for his growth.
He later studied with leading architectural photographers
from New York City and Chicago to refine his abilities in this
specialized field.
Brett gives presentations to professional groups and participates
in lectures and workshops nationwide, as he believes there is
always more to be learned in photography, whether one is a student
or a teacher.
In architecture & design
Brett graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in architecture
from the University of Arizona.
He gained his working experience in building design while
employed at architecture firms in California and Arizona, after
which he combined his two fields of knowledge to begin Brett
Drury Architectural Photography, Inc. in 1994.
Brett continues to participate in architecture through lectures,
workshops, meetings and community events.
His philosophy...
Brett believes one must have a strong understanding and knowledge
of their photographic subject and must be able to communicate
it to the client clearly and easily for a successful outcome
to occur.
Brett speaks the language of architecture and design. He feels
he is most successful when translating the three dimensions of
a built space into the two dimensions of film.
Creating inspiring images for his clients is always an exciting
and rewarding experience for Brett.
