The Studio

About Blake.

Blake Dahl — portrait

Blake Dahl is an Edmonton-based photographer working across architectural, commercial, and real estate assignments throughout Alberta. His work documents how buildings — homes, developments, public spaces — meet the land and the seasons that shape them. Outside the studio, he chases light into the Rockies on foot and on skis.

The work began with skateboarding videos and dark‑room prints; it kept moving toward architecture because a building, like a face, only ever shows you one side of itself at a time. The job is to find the angle that tells the truth.

Blake works directly with builders, architects, brokerages, and editorial outlets. His clients include Cantiro Homes, Alces, AVI Urban, and a roster of independent agents working the Edmonton metro and beyond. Drone certified (Transport Canada Advanced).
