Tips That An Interior Design Photographer Must Follow

By Jessie Folson


The demand for a high quality interior design photographer has risen in the past couple of years. In the same way, the previously held expectations from them have also escalated to a whole new level. For this reason, it has become extremely important for interior photographers to adjust their techniques to rise above the expectations people have these days. If you want to be able to do so, follow the tips given below.

Before anything else, you need to decide whether you are interested in architectural photography or interior lifestyle photography. The difference between them is very basic. Architectural design photography deals with presenting the entire layout of a room, whereas, lifestyle interiors deals with portraying the serene ambiance of a place.

Those who are interested in shooting lifestyle interiors must photograph using a tripod. The only places where you should not use these are those that have limited space and a tripod cannot be placed. Remember, the photographs you are taking are still-life images and they need to be shot with long exposures. This is what a tripod helps you in achieving.

Your photograph needs to focus on the strongest aspects of the room. You should concentrate your photography over things within the room that give it that unique appeal. Everything unique or special must be covered.

To make things easier for you, rooms with British colonial settings are best shot with focus on their unique decorations and wooden details. On the other hand, modern appeal rooms are best photographed with focus on their architectural settings. Both of these aspects are what stand out among all other things in these rooms.

In terms of lighting, remember that all interior photographs taken by interior design photographers need to bright with vibrant, fresh colors and perfect exposure. For this purpose, you need to make a few adjustments so that bad lighting combinations can be avoided. Make sure that you do not combine dark corners with excessively bright daylight that comes in through the windows. Remember, even lighting is important.

To be able to balance the inside lighting, all you need to do is open the doors and windows wide. Professional interior design photographers claim that at times, the perfect days for interior photography are rainy ones. The perfect ambiance, as is believed, is created when the lights outside is not too bright.
