2D Artwork Documentation
At Carlson Art Photography, we provide museum-quality documentation for 2D artworks including oil paintings, acrylics, and works on paper. Using calibrated lighting and high-resolution capture, we preserve every detail—brushstroke, surface texture, and color accuracy—for portfolios, print, web, and publication.
Whether you’re an artist, curator, or collector, our fine art documentation services in NYC ensure your work is represented with clarity and care.
Sculpture & 3D Artwork Documentation
Sculptural and three-dimensional works demand a nuanced approach to convey form, scale, and materiality. Our sculpture photography includes:
Studio sessions with seamless paper backdrops available at our Harlem studio
Multi-angle documentation for a complete visual reference
Close-up shots to showcase surface details and craftsmanship
Exhibition & Installation Photography
Exhibition documentation goes beyond photographing art—it captures the spatial relationships, curatorial intent, and atmosphere of the show. Our services include:
- Wide shots to show full-gallery layouts and flow
- Individual artwork documentation within the space
- Detail images that highlight texture, lighting, and materials
We work on-location throughout New York City and beyond, with fast turnaround and flexible scheduling.
