Vertical Churches: I Photograph Churches Around The World From The Perfect Perspective

ADVERTISEMENT

Having been to hundreds of Churches and Cathedrals around the world in my many years of travel, I have only recently figured out this unique way of photographing and capturing the inner beauty of their architecture.

Finding the perfect location in the center aisle then shooting vertically from the pew to the back of the church gives the perspective that only architecture of this style can portray. Each photograph consists of  6-10 photos merged together in Photoshop as a Vertical panorama.

Has anyone posted any technical specs, lens, increments of movement (front to back of church), how is lighting so even and balanced?
