Erik Sven is a Seattle-based architectural and interior photographer whose work explores visual storytelling through light, material, shape, scale, and cohesion.

Here, a recent narrative series has two objectives: first, to introduce the Thence By Descent brand as a leading source for Nakashima furniture in the Pacific Northwest. Second, to engage the audience through story by reconnecting the designer with his PNW roots. The end result moves the collection beyond function toward a broader conversation about design, art, and place.

Originally trained in photojournalism, Erik is a joy to work with both on location and in studio. He approaches each project in hopes of discovering deeper meaning with his audience. Through this practice his goal is to have fun while creating high-calibre, story-first work that directs viewers along a crafted narrative.

His photography and video clients include Skanska, Architectural Digest, Pacific Bonsai Museum, FRANKiE4, AOME Architects, Sotheby’s Realty, and more.

Nick Hall is a Brit now living on an island near Seattle and Chicago along with his wife and their eight children. He is regularly awarded for his cinematic global advertising campaigns and world renowned for his deeply moving human-nature documentary projects.

Originally a wildlife scientist and biodiversity conservationist, Nick blends his passion for the natural world with the specific needs of global brands and Fortune 500 advertising clients including American Airlines, Barclays Bank, BMW, Four Seasons, Intel, Nespresso, and Uber.

Nick is as comfortable roughing it with hunter gatherers in Tanzania as he is directing huge global advertising campaigns. Known throughout the industry as a gentle and immersive photographer, Nick brings an inclusive and thoughtful energy to all his projects allowing him to capture deeply emotional performances and iconic visuals that celebrate our connections to one another and the world all around us.

"There's a spark of creativity that flows through each and every one of us. But you have to tap into it. You have to seek it. It's like a drug, a surge of something that can't be stopped. But it is good. It is great. It is the life force that makes all things.

As if you're a horse running down a track, nothing else matters the vision in front of you. It is the rush of the wind and the syncopation of those surrounding you; the hooves pounding the earth, the flex of muscles, and the need to keep going. That's when you tap into your best work as a creative. That's when projects and campaigns come alive with your fellow co-conspirators. Together we can build something great when we are all aligned within ourselves."

"It's important to stay creative, to actively exercise your own creativity, like a personalised workout program that's just for you. Why? Because if you don't, no one else will — meaning your creativity is only yours and if it is not realised, materialised, then it never will.

Travel, document, customise your own project."

"I love a return client. They get you. They trust you. And they know your sense of humor. Then all of a sudden it no longer becomes about getting the shots and getting the list checked off. It morphs into a dance, a playfully choreographed composition of creatives doing what we do."

His ability to foster trust on set allows him to create powerful, emotional narratives that honour both people and the planet.

Alley Rutzel specialises in quietly cinematic, human-centered portrait and editorial work that is grounded in strong lighting and composition.

Her unique blend of studio polish and real-world authenticity places the subject and their emotional presence at the forefront, and relies on subtlety of mood, careful lighting, and a restrained palette to lend emotional weight to communicate a sense of personality, vulnerability, and presence.

"Whether on assignment or during a commercial campaign, I love finding those moments to capture portraits. A portrait is to make a true connection with someone, not a passing acquaintance, but a time of humility and trust on both parties.

One  is there to open oneself; the other, to do justice and create a new uniqueness of one's personality."

Originally trained in photojournalism, Erik Sven is a Seattle-based photographer specialising in objects, interiors, portraiture, architecture, motion picture, and storytelling. His style aims to capture the emotional undertow of subjects while upholding high standards of technical precision. Shape, gradient, expression, and compositional blocking can be found throughout Erik’s work.

His favorite photographs often contain negative space and contemplative moments. That being said, his work lands at the intersection of the objective and personal style. After years of assisting, retouching, and corporate creative positions, he is happy where he landed and enjoys collaborating with enthusiastic, creative people.

Erik works alongside interior designers, architects, galleries, museums, and builders with select clients including Skanska, FRANKiE 4, Zumiez, TKP Design, and Thence By Descent.

His work has appeared in global campaigns, magazines, national catalogues, and trade booths. This year Erik Sven is focused on building lasting relationships and looks forward to many coffees.
