There are different styles of lighting, ranging from natural to theatrical, when photographing architecture and interiors. Our goal is to showcase the work of each designer in a way that compliments the space. Lighting is the key ingredient to accomplishing this task.

Evening exteriors capture the deep blue sky, adding another element of color to the image. The effect is also dramatic for interiors, creating a contrast of cool and warm colors. This is especially useful if the goal is to capture the ambience set by the lighting design. This is perhaps the most popular, and shortest time of day for photography. There’s only enough residual light to capture a couple of shots at this time, without the use of multiple cameras.

Day time photography typically captures the light, bright atmosphere of a space. Supplemental lighting is critical in order to preserve window detail, fabrics, textures and other elements that can get lost during exposure. Theatrical lighting is possible during the day, but the image may appear computer-generated.

HDR (High Dynamic Imaging) is a great tool, but not a replacement for specific lighting placement. Time exposure is aslo a great tool, but the goal is to control the light which is done using a combination of the camera settings, lighting design, and post-processing. We do all three.
