Alessandro Pietrosanti is a London-based interior and architectural photographer, specialising in editorial photography for architects, interior designers, boutique hotels, property developers and hospitality brands. His work focuses on creating authentic interior and architectural photography that showcases not only the design of a space, but also the atmosphere and experience it creates.
Every project is approached as a visual journey, carefully guiding the viewer from the external context to the heart of the interior. Using primarily natural light, Alessandro captures the character, materials and ambience of each space, producing imagery that helps designers, architects and brands tell the genuine story behind their work.
Working across London and the UK, Alessandro collaborates with architects, interior designers, hospitality brands, boutique hotels, property developers and creative agencies to create interior and architectural photography that goes beyond documenting a project.
Every commission is approached as a visual journey.
Rather than focusing on individual photographs, Alessandro creates carefully considered photographic sequences that guide the viewer through a space, revealing how it is discovered, experienced and remembered. From the surrounding architecture and neighbourhood to the relationship between rooms, materials, textures, natural light and carefully selected details, every image contributes to a broader visual narrative.
Influenced by a background in documentary photography and visual storytelling, his approach to interior photography focuses on capturing the authentic character of every environment. Natural light is used wherever possible to preserve atmosphere, enhance architectural features and maintain a genuine connection between the design and the way people experience it in everyday life.
Whether photographing residential interiors, commercial spaces, boutique hotels or hospitality environments, the objective is never simply to record how a project looks, but to communicate how it feels. Through thoughtful composition, visual rhythm and carefully crafted image sequences, the final photography helps architects, interior designers and brands present their work in a way that feels authentic, engaging and memorable.
This residential restoration project in Westminster was photographed as a visual journey, connecting the garden, architecture and interior spaces through a sequence of images designed to reveal how the kitchen extension is experienced rather than simply documented.
Alessandro's complimentary 2-hour Taster Session allows new clients to experience his photography approach and visual storytelling process. Following the session, Alessandro will deliver three professionally retouched images, selected by the client for licensing. If a preliminary site visit is required, the time spent on-site will be deducted from the complimentary session. This session is ideal for clients looking to explore a more narrative approach to interior and architectural photography before commissioning a larger project.
Every project is photographed as a visual journey rather than a collection of individual images. By combining documentary storytelling, editorial composition and careful use of natural light, Alessandro creates photography that reflects both the design and the atmosphere of a space.
Alessandro works with architects, interior designers, property developers, boutique hotels, hospitality brands and businesses across London and the UK. Whether photographing a private residence, commercial interior or hospitality venue, every project is tailored to the client's goals and audience.
Projects include residential interiors, luxury homes, commercial interiors, boutique hotels, restaurants, offices, showrooms, serviced apartments and architectural spaces. Images can be used for websites, marketing campaigns, portfolios, publications and social media.

Yes. From private homes and apartments to luxury developments, every project is photographed to emphasise architecture, craftsmanship, natural light and the overall atmosphere of the interior.
Every project is different. Smaller residential interiors may take two to three hours, while larger commercial or architectural projects often require a half-day or full-day session to ensure every space is photographed with care.
The best results come from a clean, fully styled and uncluttered space. Before the session, clients are encouraged to complete any final styling, remove unnecessary personal items and ensure all lighting is working. Preparation guidelines can also be provided before the shoot.
Whenever possible, Alessandro works primarily with natural light to preserve the authentic atmosphere of a space. Additional lighting is only introduced when necessary to maintain a natural and consistent look across the final photography.
Yes. The photography is created to a professional editorial standard and is suitable for websites, printed marketing materials, design portfolios, magazines, press releases and architectural publications.
The number of final edited images depends on the size and complexity of the project. Before every commission, a tailored quotation outlines the expected image delivery based on the client's requirements.
