Architectural & Construction
Photography in New York City
Your work deserves to be seen. We make sure it is.
We partner with architects, builders, and construction teams across New York City, Long Island, and North New Jersey — providing architectural photography, FAA-certified drone documentation, and custom web design from a single, dedicated studio.
An All-In-One Studio for
the Built Environment
I'm Ariel Palma — photographer, FAA-certified drone operator, and web designer based in New York City.
Palma Design is my studio. I work directly with builders, architects, and developers across NYC, Long Island, and North New Jersey to document and present their work with the level of intention it deserves.
From the first drone pass over a construction site to the final launch of a custom website — every project goes through me, start to finish. No handoffs, no account managers. Just consistent, high-quality work from someone who understands the built environment.
Let's Work Together— Ariel Palma, Palma Design
I bring the same level of intention to a photograph as I do to a page layout. Whether it's architectural photography for a residential project in Long Island, aerial drone documentation for a construction team in North New Jersey, or a custom website for an architect or developer in Manhattan — the standard is always the same.
