How to Take Beautiful Interior Photos

red-sox-luxury-suite

If you’re trying to advertise your business or showcase your home’s interior, it’s important to hire a professional photographer. Whether you have a chic restaurant, cozy diner or riveting nightclub, adding some professional photographs to your website is perfect for advertising.

What Impression Are You Trying to Give Off

Think about how you want to present the interior of your business, event or home. Are there panoramic views that you’d like to use or perhaps a warm entryway? If you own a restaurant you’ll want to include photos of guests enjoying their meals, food, the bar if you have one and any unique décor. Consider your clientele and the people you are trying to get through the door.

Use Proper Lighting

The time of day you take the photo will affect how your photos look. If you want to make a romantic mood than set up your photo shoot for the evening. However, when you want to present a more high-energy environment, use the natural light and open the blinds. Try to balance the indoor and outdoor light.  On occasion you may need extra lamp lighting or professional lighting.

Wide Angles

When capturing a significant amount of space you should use a wide-angle lens. A wide-angle lens offers a full-view effect. Lenses from 16mm to 24mm provide you with plenty of flexibility for the interior of the building.

Utilize the Corner

By shooting in the corner of a room you can easily make the space appear much larger. Shoot from a lower position as well with a wide lens, but not too wide where the image comes out distorted. If you snap a photo at a wall, the room will look flat and bend awkwardly in the camera.

Declutter the Room

Rooms that are beautiful and clean still need to be decluttered. If there’s something in the room that’s distracting then you’ll want to move it. For instance, there could be loose wires, cords and hardware that cause a major distraction. The right accent pieces can truly enhance the room and create higher-quality photography.
