Very informative. I especially appreciate the historical references to other artists.

[@ssatx6911]

I love shooting industrial & construction -- your 'saturate the colors" comment is good to know as a standard..

[@leonardgleicher]

Thank you so much Sir.

[@leonardgleicher]

You are most welcome. Thank you for your kind thoughts.

Fantastic! Very helpful indeed. Now I want to go out and shoot industrial architecture. I could only do that and be happy :)

beautiful images and inspiring video, thanks

[@JoseSLobo]

Great advices for a type of architectural photography you don't find much information

[@imperfectphotography578]

Great to hear and how you think about industrial photography.

[@terryfebruary6485]

Very informative presentation, filled with lots of interesting and valuable information. A good reference presentation. Thank you for sharing. Highly appreciated.

Excellent video. Wasn't aware of this genre! New Orleanian native here, so well acquainted with the pumping station. We've stepped up some of our disaster management infrastructure post Katrina 👍

[@stevenbrookephotography]

My thoughts when I was photographing them was that I hope they work! You have so much wonderful architecture to photograph in NO. I photographed the Pontalba Apartment complex years ago for Architectural Digest. A beautiful solution to apartment living.

[@Devin.S4]

Love this thank you

[@chadwickerman]

Excellent video Steven. I appreciate the content. I've always enjoyed the line and design of industrial photography. I've found that it's very difficult to gain access to these locations to create a body of work though.

[@stevenbrookephotography]

Even with the help of my client, access to the Westinghouse Plant in the video took over two months to negotiate. Many of those places just don't want photographers on site. Access to the airport facilities, especially airside, took over a month of negotiation with their armies of security forces. Understandable so.

[@bhovis]

Another excellent video, thank you!

[@open.studio.architecture]

Great tutorial, thanks again Steven!

[@senoe80]

Thank you very much for sharing this. Great tutorial!

[@thephotoroad]

Very informative and helpful. Have you ever been able to do industrial photography simply for arts sake, rather than for a client? I would imagine it’d be even harder to negotiate access….

[@stevenbrookephotography]

I have wanted to do just that. I have tried several times to gain access to some industrial plants - even some abandoned ones!- just for my own work. I've never been successful. Security issues are understandably extreme; and I've only been able to work in these environments with the assistance of my client. Even with their help, locations like airports are very difficult to navigate. The levels of security are draconian.

[@robcoates4394]

Lots of food for thought here, Steven. As a retiree and amateur photographer, access to these types of areas is very much limited and I'm pretty much restricted to standing at the roadway and trying to make the best of shooting through the fence (being mindful of the security cameras!). However, some of the principles you list may be transferable to other genres. I've never before heard anyone speak of dividing their images into two fifths and three fifths. Not a mention of that holy of holies, Rule of Thirds! I will certainly try to keep all this in mind next time I'm out and about in a city or urban setting. Thanks and cheers from DownUnder 🦘

[@stevenbrookephotography]

Rob, I might use thirds with a very simple composition with only a few elements. But these are very complicated subjects and require a more detailed framework.On occasion I set up a 3x5 grid to provide even more structural demarcations into which to compose.
