Thank you for visiting ARC's porfolio of architectural photography, interior photography and miscellaneous detail photos. All images are for viewing purposes only and are protected by copyright.
The Four Seasons Hotel & Resort Whistler brought ARC in to help highlight some of their guestrooms. ARC was tasked to show off the unique features, amenities and services the hotel provides, such as in-suite catering, in-suite spa services, private mountain-view patios, and a turn-down service specifically designed for children. This project was as much about the welcoming and elegant rooms as it was about the experience of staying at the Four Seasons Hotel & Resort Whistler.
Testimonials
"Thanks for a great rooms shoot, for being so good to work with and for your follow up."
- Ciro Tacinelli, Director of Sales and Marketing at Four Seasons Whistler

Pool Deck & Outdoor Patio
The pool deck and patio at the Fairmont Waterfront Vancouver is a beautiful, sun-drenched outdoor space with both a city and a mountain view. It is also adjacent to the hotel's unique herb garden where the executive chef grows fresh herbs and spices for use in his kitchen. It is a multi-functional space that the marketing team wanted to be able to showcase to potential clients who may wish to hold events such as banquets, trade shows and, in this case, weddings.
Banquet Room with Full-service Wedding Set-up
ARC's goal of this photo shoot was provide the marketing department with photography showcasing the Fairmont Waterfront's ability to offer customized, full-service wedding packages in their banquet spaces. To ensure the highest quality product, ARC played an active role in staging and ensured that every detail was considered, from steaming of the table/chair linens to choice of table center-pieces.
Guest Rooms with Views
One of the biggest selling points for the Fairmont Waterfront Vancouver is its prime downtown location with close proximity to many of the things that visitors seek. It is across the street from both the new Vancouver Convention Centre and downtown Vancouver's cruise ship terminal and has spectacular views of the Vancouver Harbour and coast mountains. The task of this photo shoot was to show that a stay at the Fairmont Waterfront Vancouver is not simply a stay in a hotel room.
Testimonial
"Ken Wan has a excellent eye for detail which is absolutely critical when the photography speaks to your company image. Ken is creative and able to provide solution-oriented ideas to accomplish the goal and capture the desired imagery of the project. I will work with Ken again in the near future."

Upon completion of hotel renovations, the Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport contacted ARC to help showcase the new decor. In addition to a new signature exterior photograph, images for the marketing of meeting spaces and amenities were also required. A limited budget for this photo shoot meant that ARC was tasked with the staging and styling for the project.
Testimonials
"Ken is truly an artist in his field and the results lay proof to that claim. The photographs turned out beautifully and we were most pleased with his work. He is meticulous with detail, which is a very important factor of a successful shoot. We also appreciated his unwavering patience and professional approach. Should you require the services of a top notch photographer, I would highly recommend Ken Wan of ARC - Architectural Photography."
- Kathryn Warren, General Manager at Radisson Hotel Vancouver Airport
"Ken is very professional and a perfectionist. He struck a great balance between upholding his quality of work and accommodating our wishes during the project. We did not hire a stylist to aid the project, but Ken's experience as an architectural photographer more than ably filled the role and the resulting photographs were amazing. Ken is very personable and it was an absolute delight to work with him. I will highly recommend Ken to anyone who is looking to hire an architectural photographer."

Admok Creative was hired to design brochures for marketing a couple of new residential developments and thus asked ARC to supply the photography. Not only was it important to show the beautiful spaces, but the design details and finishings (scraped hardwood, stone fireplace, stainless steel finishes, granite countertops, etc.) all needed to be captured.
Jay Hodgins contracted ARC to document a couple of his Vancouver projects for his portfolio. Design details and the integration of design elements were the main focus of this project.
ARC was contacted by Kindred Construction to document a couple of projects - renovations to St. Mary's Anglican Church and the completion of the WISH Drop-In Centre. For St. Mary's Anglican Church, Kindred erected new support beams in the sancutary, renovated the kitchen, and constructed a new bell tower. The WISH Drop-In Centre involved a complete renovation of an existing space where the new centre would reside. New spaces include a lounge area, kitchen, bathroom with showers, and a meeting room.
The following are some interior and architectural photographs captured for various small projects and during my travels.
