About Me
Nikhilesh Haval, Architectural Photographer & Virtual Tour Specialist
I'm passionate about bringing architectural designs and interiors to life through striking visuals and immersive virtual tours. With every project, I aim to capture the essence of a space, its light, structure, mood and purpose, so others can truly experience it.
My Journey
I began my career in architecture, working with CAD, 3D modelling and software development. Over time, I was drawn to photography as a way to tell the story of a space, beyond plans and visualisations. In 2004, I transitioned fully into architectural photography and have been dedicated to the craft ever since.
In 2012, I became a trusted contributor to Google's Street View Inside Businesses programme, offering 360° virtual tours that allow clients to showcase their spaces in a powerful and engaging way. Since then, I've continued to expand my work to include interactive VR content and high-resolution imaging.
What I Do
- Architectural Photography – Capturing the design, scale and rhythm of buildings with precision and creativity
- Interior Photography – Focusing on light, layout and atmosphere to express the story of each space
- 360° Virtual Tours & Panoramas – Developing on-brand, immersive and interactive environments for websites and Google, used for accessibility, marketing, education and research
- Drone Imagery – Providing dynamic aerial views, 360° panoramas and videos to highlight context, scale and location
- Gigapixel Photography – Creating ultra-high-resolution images ideal for large-format prints, deep zoom capabilities and interactive display platforms
Who I Work With
I've worked with a wide range of clients across the UK and internationally, from architects and lighting designers to business owners and heritage property managers. Every project is unique, and I enjoy working closely with each client to ensure the final visuals reflect their goals and vision.

My travel and architectural photographs, licensed worldwide via Alamy as “nikreates”, have appeared in publications such as Condé Nast Traveller, The Guardian, Architectural Digest, National Geographic and the Financial Times.
