Andrea Rugg
Minneapolis
Andrea Rugg is an architectural photographer based in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
She photographs buildings and structures, both commercial and residential, interiors and exteriors, landscape and landscape architecture and public works projects.
"Having been born in Germany, because my father worked for the state department, then moving to the Midwest, I became enamored of travel and new places. We traveled quite a bit as a family since my father would often take the family along when he taught summer school or did research.
I have always been fascinated by houses and structures. When I was young, my brother and I would get up early in the morning and spend hours drawing up house plans and building Lego houses. He would later become an architect but my interests turned toward art and photography so being an architectural photographer feels like the perfect balance of my interests. I am also an avid gardener and I love photographing gardens and landscape architecture."

"When I was young, my sister taught me how to use her SLR camera, and I was instantly hooked. I loved the light meter moving as I changed aperture or shutter-speed. I loved the feel of cranking film through the camera and the sound of the shutter opening and closing.
Now I make lifestyle work, portraits, and all kinds of other pictures and moving pictures for clients all over the world. Every picture is a chance for the subject, audience, client, and myself to relate. That is my favourite part of doing this work.
When I am not making pictures, I am hanging out with my brilliant wife. We play cribbage, talk about the world, go for walks, make great food, work on our garden, and play with our two crazy cats. I also love running and biking and I still skate.
Thanks for making the time to look at my work. I enjoy any chance I get to talk to folks about this incredible work that we make. I am really lucky to have worked with such great collaborators, and I would love to work with you!
Clients Include Target, Belize Tourism, Politico, VSA, mono, Outside Magazine, Arnold Worldwide, US Bank, United Health Care, Colle + McVoy, BMO, Harris, Century Link, OLSON, Carmichael, Lynch, Sappi Fine Paper, Schells Brewing, Metropolis Magazine and Major League Baseball."
