All Saints Cathedral
All Saints Cathedral is a historic Episcopal church in Milwaukee whose red brick exterior, arched windows, and Gothic Revival detailing make it a rewarding subject for architectural photography. Work from across the street to capture the full facade with a moderate wide angle lens, around 24 to 35mm, and pay attention to the clean lines of the stonework and the rhythm of the arched openings. Overcast days are ideal here because they eliminate harsh shadows and bring out the texture and warm tones of the brick. If you move closer, look for detail shots of the decorative stonework, window tracery, and the interplay between the cathedral and the adjacent parish hall buildings. Early morning on weekdays means minimal foot traffic and parked cars, giving you cleaner foregrounds. The surrounding street trees can add framing depth depending on the season.
