Marcus Peel

Architecture, Interior, People
London, Uk

I'm a UK-based photographer specialising in architecture, interiors and environmental portraiture for architects, designers, creative agencies and global brands.

I combine creative direction with commercial thinking to produce clean, graphic and abstract imagery that shapes how buildings, spaces and developments are understood – strengthening reputation and supporting campaigns, PR and wider brand communications.

Over the past 25 years I've worked with organisations including Apple, Christian Louboutin, Gensler, Google, Nike, Rafael Viñoly Architects, Sotheby's and Zaha Hadid Architects.

Much of what I photograph is technically complex or difficult to communicate clearly: occupied buildings, live infrastructure, unpredictable weather, strict permissions, multiple stakeholders and locations where planning matters as much as the photography itself. Clients value my input before the camera comes out – I work closely with marketing, communications and creative teams to understand the audience, the business objective, and how the imagery needs to perform across channels.

A recent project involved photographing Verne's sites in Iceland and Finland as part of a wider brand refresh led by its agency, Cheil. The brief went beyond documenting buildings and infrastructure – the imagery needed to differentiate the business, communicate its environmental approach, and show the relationship between technology, architecture, people and landscape.

This is increasingly what organisations delivering complex buildings and infrastructure need: success depends not just on what's built, but on how well it's understood by customers, partners, employees, local communities and other stakeholders. The resulting image library now supports Verne's website, digital marketing, investor and customer presentations, PR and annual reports – making a complex, often misunderstood part of the business clearer and more accessible.

Collaboration is central to how I work. I partner regularly with creative directors, marketing and communications teams, architects, designers and production partners to deliver ambitious projects efficiently while keeping creative and commercial goals aligned.

Alongside architectural and interior photography, I offer environmental portraiture, commercial film production, drone photography and videography, visual planning, art direction and full-service production.

Selected for the Royal Academy of Arts Summer Exhibition 2025, Creativepool's Top 25 Photographers of 2025, the AOP Photography Awards, Architecture Photography Masterprize and European Product Photography Awards.

I'm represented by Lisa Pritchard Agency and am an accredited member of the Association of Photographers.
