David Churchill is a skilled technical and creative architectural photographer.
He combines his deep passion for design with a flair for balance and light, to capture clean, simple and striking images, free from distractions. His work demonstrates a detailed understanding of the characteristics of the photographic image and the remit of the client.
Since turning freelance in 1992 he has worked extensively for architects, designers, commercial clients and ad agencies in London the UK and internationally. His work has appeared in architectural and design publications worldwide. In 1999 he became the principal photographer for 'Glasgow 1999 City of Architecture and Design' and had two books published ; 'The Lighthouse' and 'Homes For The Future'. All photography is now shot using a Phase One H25 digital back giving unsurpassed definition and resolution. Photography will be delivered on disc having been processed and retouched using a fully calibrated digital facility.
In 2001 David moved to Brighton where he has built up an impressive client list including The Richard Rogers Partnership, Terry Farrell & Partners, Merrill Lynch, The Bank Of America, Reuters, Ushida Findlay Architects, Interni Italy and Constructiva Spain.
In 2003 David was approached by Ted Young-Ing from Formula 1 magazine. Having worked for Tatler, Ted decided a more architectural approach could be interesting for the photography of Formula 1 cars. He chose to use David who became a regular contributor to the magazine.
Having turned digital in late 2004 using a hi-end Phase One H25 medium format back David has started to add Super yachts to his repetoire. Historically yachts have been photographed by non-specialist photographers. Top yacht designers Bannenberg realised this was not doing justice to their product. They decided to use an architectural photographer: someone with a clear understanding of interior space and an ability to convey it photographically. They selected David who has consequently photographed 'The Talitha G' in Monaco and Sir Malcolm Campbell's 'Bluebird' in San Tropez.
