I offer photography and film production services, with a core focus on architectural imaging.

Beyond architecture and interiors, my practice extends across a wide range of commercial genres. I work with brands, agencies, and individuals to create purposeful visual content tailored to context and audience. Areas of expertise include:

Brand Experiences · Events · Lifestyle · BTS + Unit Stills · Automotive · Real Estate · Food · Sports · Still Life · Nautical · Aeronautical · Reportage · Portraits · Concerts · 3D Tours · Video Production · Brand Marketing · Fine Art · + More

Based in Toronto, Canada, I work on projects locally, across the country, and internationally.

Most projects range from $1,700 to $3,500. Larger commercial and architectural shoots typically fall between $4,000 and $10,000 or more.

Each project is unique and requires a bespoke approach to pricing. If you’d like a personalized quote, I’d be happy to hear from you. Click here to get in touch.

Yes, every booking requires a 50% non refundable deposit prior to pre production and scheduling.

Your confidence and peace of mind are essential.

I carry comprehensive business insurance that covers both my equipment and yours, ensuring protection in the rare event that something goes wrong.

Additionally, I hold dedicated drone liability coverage for any unlikely incidents that may occur during aerial work—so both you and I are fully protected at every stage.

Yes, I hold a Transport Canada Advanced Operations RPAS License. I completed in-person drone flight training at the Waterloo Wellington Airport Flight School and have over five years of experience operating drones in dense urban environments.

All content—including proofs, behind-the-scenes documentation, and final deliverables—is the property of Adrian Stiles Photography and protected by copyright.

Delivered content is licensed according to its intended usage. I offer a variety of licensing tiers to accommodate different projects and budgets.

Absolutely. I offer full license transfers for an additional charge.

Generally, I do not deliver RAW files in order to maintain consistency and quality in my final deliverables.

Cameras exposed strictly according to technical standards often produce RAW files that appear less than polished and require advanced retouching and a deep understanding of each sensor’s capabilities to maximize their potential.

However, I do offer RAW file delivery to agencies with in-house editing teams when client brand guidelines are being followed.

Who Owns the Work

All creative content—whether photos, videos, or other media—is the intellectual property of the photographer, protected by The Canadian Copyright Act (Learn More Here). When you purchase a license, you secure the right to use that content within clearly defined terms—much like leasing a car.

Licensing helps set clear expectations at a proportionate price, ensuring fairness and sustainability for everyone involved. If unlimited usage rights are required, a full buyout is always an option and will be priced accordingly.

Copyright protection and content licensing are standard practice in commercial media worldwide—it’s what allows creative work to remain both accessible and professionally viable for clients and creators alike.

Copyright & Promotional Use

As the copyright holder, I retain the right to use all created content—including photos, videos, and behind-the-scenes material for promotional purposes. This includes use on social media, website, email marketing, editorial publications, award submissions, and third-party sub licensing.

How Licensing Works

Licensing is based on how the content will be used. Some projects only require social media usage, while others require broad international campaign use. Usage intentions determine the value of the content, which is priced accordingly. I offer a range of licensing options structured to reflect varying levels of usage and exclusivity.

Balancing Usage and Affordability

Licensing options and conditions help keep architectural photography and videography accessible. In most commercial genres, full-usage buyouts are common. But this comes at a cost—often ranging from ten to well over fifty thousand dollars per project depending on the usage required. These high fees reflect the value of the content as a marketing asset. For example, if imagery is being used in a $100,000 advertising campaign, its monetary value is significantly higher than if it’s only featured on a personal portfolio website. By offering flexible licensing options, I’m able to provide high-quality commercial work at a more approachable cost—ensuring you only pay for the usage you need.

Custom Licensing

Custom licenses are available to accommodate specific usage needs, budgets, or distribution plans. The broader or more prominent the use, the higher the value of the content—and the price is adjusted to reflect that.

Third Party Licensing + Sales

Unless exclusivity is included in the purchased license, I retain full distribution rights and may sub-license the content to third parties—such as project vendors, collaborators, or industry partners—without additional permission or notice.

This is a standard practice in commercial architectural photography and a key part of my business model. Third party sale allows me to keep licensing fees lower for primary clients by passing the expense onto third party clients down the line. This helps maintaining long-term professional viability and client affordability.

If you prefer the images not be resold, shared, or used beyond your own channels, we can absolutely arrange a custom license, or buyout with a proportionately valued licensing rate to reflect that usage.

Ensuring timely final delivery is a key part to a project’s success.

The final delivery timeline for each project varies depending on volume and complexity. For general shoots, such as events, delivery typically occurs within 2–4 weeks. Architectural shoots generally have final delivery within 2 weeks of proof selection.

For tight deadlines, rush editing is available for an additional fee.

Advanced Imaging Technology, Delivering Versatility and Value.

I utilize industry leading photographic tools to ensure exceptional quality and consistency for all projects. For the more technically inclined, I use the following camera systems:

Leica SL2 · Leica M240 · Fujifilm GFX 100SII · DJI Mavic 2 Pro + Mini 4 Pro

I offer 400MP still images and 5K video, delivering ultra-high resolution that enables significant cropping for alternate compositions or tighter framing..

This capability significantly enhances the utility and versatility of each frame, enabling the generation of multiple, high-fidelity assets from a single capture—ideal for diverse applications across various platforms and formats without any degradation in quality.

I personally edit and retouch all images as well as the majority of video projects, ensuring consistent style and meticulous attention to detail. I provide high-end retouching using industry-leading software and advanced AI tools. For more complex video productions, I collaborate with a trusted team of commercial and narrative editors to maintain the highest quality standards.

Dependability is central to my work. When my schedule allows, I can accommodate same-day projects. To guarantee availability, I recommend booking at least four weeks in advance. I am also happy to arrange long-term bookings to suit your needs.
