Top Tips For Interior Photography. As a specialist Headshot & Personal Branding Photographer I have been asked if I do interior marketing photography...the answer was yes of course. Here are a few tips that I’ve learnt over the years. 1: Consult with your client whenever possible. Sometimes, you walk in and you know right away, you just feel it...this is the perfect picture, but sometimes you may need to investigate a little bit more. 2: Avoid using wide-angle lenses. Wide angle lenses can cause distortions, which can disrupt the harmony of the image and give a false sense of the space being photographed. In architecture, lines must be straight. 3: Natural light is king. Even when you do add artificial lights, you still want to pay attention to how natural light works in the space, so that the light you’re adding makes sense. For instance, you never want to have light coming from multiple directions and casting double shadows. 4: Keep lights to a minimum unless there’s a reason for them to be on. You don’t need to turn on a lamp if sunlight is streaming in through the window already. 5: Don’t feel like you need to keep everything in focus all the time. Blurring elements of the photo can add dimension, change the mood, or focus the viewer’s attention somewhere specific. 6: A good prop could makes a difference. Every space is different, but even in spaces that lend themselves to minimalism, propping can help tell the story, even if it’s just a few touches. 7: Don’t wait to do in post production what you can do in the room. Retouching costs money and often takes much longer than just addressing the issue head-on before you start shooting. 8: Don’t always let things get too perfect. Rooms are meant to be lived in, so try not to get too precious about your set-up. 9: Never stop learning. Remember that photography is a lifelong journey, you’re not just going to pick up a camera and be the next big thing right away. You must have a passion for it. If you would like any advice on interior photography, feel free to drop me a message. 📞 07775 647 476 #BerkshirePhotographer #CreativeViewHeadshotPhotography #BrandingPhotographer #PersonalBrandPhotographer #interiorphotograhy #interiorphotographer

I learned the rules and how not to follow them. In the world of photography, rules are abundant: ▶️ The famous "rules of thirds" ▶️ The guiding principle of leading lines ▶️ The pursuit of symmetry ▶️ The art of composition ▶️ The magic of lighting (a personal favorite) ▶️ The consideration of camera angles ▶️ And the skill of cropping And that's just the tip of the iceberg. To be honest, I haven't mastered every detail (perhaps I should), nor do I strictly adhere to every rule. There's one rule I follow: to understand and fulfill my client's vision. Sure, if a client desires something less than aesthetically pleasing, we'll hide it in the deepest, darkest corner of our portfolio (just kidding). But more often than not, especially in interior photography, my clients come equipped with a clear vision, and I'm honored to help bring it to life. They know what they want, and I'm here to make it happen with the skills that I have learned. _________ Visit https://lnkd.in/gXXnmQgK to explore my portfolio and schedule a shoot today! 📸✨ Together, let's capture the soul of your space! #interior #interiorphotography

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐫 𝐏𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐡𝐲 📸 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗲 Shooting interiors is more than just pointing a camera. Every space has its own unique story to tell. Understanding the client's vision and translating it into stunning images is key. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗼𝗮𝗹𝘀 Whether it's showcasing a grand space or highlighting tiny details, the goal is to capture the essence of the room. It’s about showing how people will live, work, or play there. 𝗪𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝘃𝘀.

They help you capture more of a space without the unwanted distortion. 𝗭𝗼𝗼𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗜𝗻 Standard zoom lenses are versatile for capturing both the overall look and those small details that make a space special. 𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘁 I'm still learning the ropes of interior photography.

Do you know which photography clauses you should consider in your contracts with clients and photographers? The significance of project photography—and inevitably, a strong photography contract—for an interior design firm can’t be overstated. When working in private residences, that documentation is among the only tangible evidence remaining when a project is all said and done. It’s essential for the firm’s portfolio, and thus, its marketing materials. The records are also useful for showcasing the evolution of the studio’s work—need-to-have fodder for that dream of a book deal down the line. Read on for expert insights 👉 https://lnkd.in/erD3ycrc

Here's the tea on wallcoverings: Go dramatic in spaces you pass through (like this moment) or sit and admire (hello, powder room). Keep it calm in rooms where you need your blood pressure to stay down (looking at you, bedrooms).
