Capturing the Details That Define Great Design.

The difference between something good and something great is attention to detail. They’re worth showing off. The finer points put a spotlight on the designer’s aesthetics—capturing how a wall treatment complements a sculpture; how a chair balances with the shape of a table; how a perfectly placed plant emphasizes the serenity of a nook. Detail shots serve to visually editorialize about your design. Often more freestyle and fine art-ish, these shots—both still and motion—let your clients get a deeper feel for the quality and intention of your work.

Every great detail shot begins with observation.

Lawrence Anderson looks beyond the obvious to find the textures, patterns, and moments that define a space. Whether it’s the glow of copper lighting, the tactile warmth of handcrafted materials, or the geometry of a shadow falling just so, these images reveal the care and creativity behind the architecture. By focusing on the smallest elements, we highlight the artistry that might otherwise go unnoticed—creating photographs that invite viewers to slow down, look closer, and fully experience the design.
