Meet Chris

Chris Goldstraw

I'm an editorial and commercial photographer specializing in architectural and interior photography. Based in Dubai, I cover the Middle East and beyond, and am always happy to travel for the right project.

When I'm not working, I love nothing more than to hop on a plane and visit the far-flung corners of the globe to take even more pictures of buildings! I was just a young boy when my enthusiasm for architecture and design started, and after a 12-year stint working in the publishing industry, I eventually decided to combine my youthful passion with my love of photography and have never looked back.

I work closely with architects, designers, developers, contractors and product manufacturers to effectively capture their creations and produce images that are appealing to your customers.

My Work Ethos

  • I champion the importance of partnering with my clients to accurately understand and interpret your requirements.
  • •
  • I treat your space with appreciation and respect, no matter how large or small, which leads me to create images that are accurate, compelling and expressive.
  • •
  • I establish a relaxed working environment where my passion for your space becomes contagious.
  • •
  • I frame your space to showcase it in the best light.
  • •
  • I am fanatical about attention to detail.

Testimonials

It is a joy to work with Chris, he is professional, friendly and relaxed but above all he completely understands architectural photography. He will go that extra mile to get the best shots, even if that means returning to the site as many times as it takes. As far as we are concerned we have established a relationship that is going to continue for a long time.

Chris has worked for our team on multiple projects across a variety of sectors including F&B, Commercial, Entertainment and Residential and each time we are very pleased with the results. He has a practical approach to his work and a great eye for capturing architectural and design detail. Would highly recommend Chris for any type of fit out or building project photography.
Tom Gilmartin, Business Development Manger – ALEC Fitout

Chris has been working closely with our team now for several years. He is passionate, patient and his attention to detail is second to none. Chris delivers high quality photographs that communicate the high standard of our work in both an architectural and practical way to our clients.
Sandy Stirling, Business Development Manager – Al Tayer Stocks

We have successfully worked with Chris on several projects now. Chris was a pleasure to deal with, quick to respond and very professional. Some of our clients and projects are sensitive in nature, having a photographer we can trust in these situations is a must. The images taken were simply amazing, he managed to make our projects look even better than the real thing. We would definitely recommend Chris to any architecture/design firm for project photography.
