At what time of day should your project be shot?
Consider the best time of day for the photography: Interiors. Exteriors. Natural light. Sun.
Shadows. Mixed lighting. Views. Is it best to shoot at night? Often both day and nighttime
images are needed to provide a complete overview of the project, as rooms often have a
different look, or “feel”, at different times of the day.
These samples illustrate the difference in “look” when shooting an exterior (or interior) image
during the “day” versus “night”.
Keep in mind, that during twilight shoots, the “perfect light”, is a fleeting moment. As such we are limited in the
number of shots that can be produced each evening. Large projects, or special client needs, may require multiple
evenings on location.
Large windows, or walls of glass (and their orientation), as well as glossy floor finishes, often dictate when a room
should ideally be shot.
