About

Tom Harris is an Architectural Photographer living in Chicago. Days spent behind the camera working with brilliant architects and designers are what fuel his creativity.

Tom Harris began his career as an Architectural Photographer in 2009 immediately after graduating with a BFA from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. He started as an apprentice at Hedrich Blessing Photographers where he became a staff photographer in 2013.

From small practices to international firms, Tom enjoys collaborating with a wide range of clients including, Studio Gang Architects, Skidmore Owings & Merrill, Gensler, Perkins+Will, Stantec, Partners By Design, Valerio Dewalt Train, The Chicago Botanic Gardens, John Ronan Architects, and more.

Tom views every shoot as a chance to collaborate with other creative professionals. The photography shoot is a discussion between designer and photographer and the finished photographs are stronger as a result of this teamwork.

Tom's photographs have been widely published internationally and can be seen in recent issues of Metropolis Magazine, The Architect's Newspaper, and Architectural Record. The recently published Benjamin H. Marshall, Chicago Architect features Tom's image on the cover as well as dozens of images within the book. His photographs can also be found on sites such as The LA Times, CNN, the Wall Street Journal, Vogue, Dezeen, and Design Boom.
