BoysPlayNice Photography & Concept is a Prague-based studio founded in 2008 by Jakub Skokan and Martin Tůma. Specializing in architectural, interior, product, and advertising photography, the studio is renowned for its thoughtful, concept-driven visual storytelling.
Their approach emphasizes clarity and impact—crafting images that elegantly convey the character of architectural works while exploring the evolving relationship between architecture and the photographic medium. By responding to both natural and urban environments, industrial forms, and contemporary aesthetics, BoysPlayNice pushes the boundaries of architectural photography with sensitivity and experimentation.
