Kevin Scott Photography
About Kevin Scott
Kevin Scott is a photographer and visual artist based in New York City. Formally trained as an architect, his image work focuses on the physical and visceral response to the built environment where concept and story are defining elements.
Kevin’s architecture and interiors photography appear regularly in design periodicals around the world while his concept work has been featured in television, theater, advertising, and print, as well as independently commissioned as artwork.
Known for his minimalism, meticulous use of natural light, and views which mimic the perspective of everyday inhabitants, Kevin’s work embraces atmosphere and imperfection in order to find the emotional center of a place. As a result, his photographs are as cinematic as they are documentary, and project a humanist spirit whereby people, whether in frame or out, are naturally visible.
