krista jahnke photography, canadian architectural photographer

"Photographing architecture has become
second nature to me. As soon as I enter
a space I can understand the architect’s
vision. Light, geometry and composition
are the fundamental elements of a
decisive moment, it’s spatially harmonious."

Krista Jahnke is an Architectural + Interiors Photographer working throughout Canada. Krista studied Architecture at Carleton University in Ottawa and Photography at Emily Carr University of Art + Design in Vancouver. Krista uses her passion for photography and architecture as a way to study and explore the built environment; how we populate, circulate through and understand our position within it. As an award-winning photographer and multi-disciplinary designer she has traveled and photographed architecture around the world, and has had her photography published in international design magazines, blogs and books, and exhibited in galleries and public spaces.

Krista’s photography has been included in the modern architecture documentary, Coast Modern, and has prints available through the Vancouver Art Gallery’s Art Rental & Sales Program and the concept design store Vancouver Special. With two decades of photography experience and her background in architecture and the arts, Krista has a trained eye for detail and dynamic composition; producing striking images that focus on the geometry of form and human interaction.
