For many leading architects, builders and institutions, Max Touhey is the go-to photographer for their latest project.
Max is an interior and architectural photographer specialized in press, portfolio and editorial work, primarily in New York. His work varies from quick-turnaround editorial assignments to all-hands-on-deck architectural projects, and his ability to turn a client's idea into compelling imagery every time has defined his reputation.
Max's work has covered thousands of spaces in Manhattan and many more across the boroughs and world. His career is based around the spaces one occupies: homes, offices, museums, universities, parks and transit systems—as well as behind the scenes of places one often doesn't see; airport tarmacs, roughed-out train tunnels, metal foundries and skyscraper construction sites. His job is to uncover the curiosities of these spaces and in turn showcase their unique stories.
Max has been working with Curbed NY for many years and his work regularly appears in major design and architecture publications around the world. He is entrusted with documentation/press photography of several prominent institutions and projects including MoMA, the New York Public Library, One Vanderbilt, Cornell Tech, the American Copper Buildings, the TWA Terminal, 8 Spruce St, the Trust for Governors Island, among others.
Due to time constraints Max is currently taking on select assignments. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss a project or for any other inquiries, including image licensing.
