SHOW HOME PHOTOGRAPHY EXAMPLES
SHOW HOME PHOTOGRAPHY EXPLAINED
Open bifold doors in this show home photograph create an inviting link between kitchen / family space and the garden. Giving the impression of more space and light.
What's involved?
Show homes are fantastic environments to photograph, mainly as they are always so well designed with beautiful materials, colours and furnishings.
Key to Chris' approach to interior show home photography is to use natural light to show off these colours and textures to their best. He will try to schedule shoots for good weather and look to link indoor and garden spaces to create the most appealing images possible. This creates simple striking images, which in reality are very challenging to capture well.
Linking spaces
One great way to show off the size of a room and perhaps the luxury design of a space is to take photographs from one area to another.
This photograph of a luxury walk in wardrobe looking through to the bedroom tells a story instantly, you know what room you're in, and can form an instant picture of how the space works. It creates more interest than a simple photograph of the dressing area.

Golden hour
Organising shoots to be there at the right time for the best light is part of a good show home photographers skill. Golden hour (the time just before sunset) often gives beautiful soft warm light which can show off a home nicely.
Good composition and including context are also key to place a home in its environment. Something that comes naturally to Chris as an architect.
