Architectural & Interior Photography
Working with luxury hotels, property developers, architects, and design firms
Araceli Lesko is an architectural photographer based between Paris and Seattle. Born in Mexico and raised between two cultures, she moved to Seattle where she spent 20 years designing digital products and leading product strategy at Amazon, T-Mobile, and a few startups. She then moved to Paris and graduated from Spéos International photography school.
Her multicultural journey shapes her distinctive visual perspective. She photographs Europe's most prestigious architectural and hospitality projects and brings that international expertise to clients in both markets she calls home: Paris and Seattle.
Her gift lies in connecting deeply with each space, interpreting her clients' visions, and translating them into compelling visual narratives. Her approach emphasizes the interplay of light and shadow on architectural form. She works closely with architects, designers, and brands to create images that magnify their creations. Her Hasselblad medium format approach delivers exceptional imagery for luxury hospitality, high-end residential, and architectural firms.
Available for projects throughout the Pacific Northwest, Europe, and globally. Trilingual: English, French, Spanish.
