Two new elevations

It is great to see the end of daylight saving, at least for a while. The sun is now heading down at 6pm a much better time for a dusk shoot than the middle of summer where the sun hangs around till 9pm . Here is a external image shot at dusk of an impressive home in Dalkeith built by Polazzo Homes.


Another impressive Dalkeith home shot last week was form builder Webb & Brown-Neaves. We were lucky to get a beautiful yellow Lamborghini in the driveway for the shot. The camera was set up just inside the boundary fence with a 14-24mm lens set to 19mm. This is wider then I would normally shoot an external however I preferred this composition, by framing out the front fence I was able to get a clearer view of the car. The camera was sent up the tripod to full height over 2.5m exposure 4 sec st f11

Nautilus Display Home

Here are a few images from a recent architecturl photoshoot for Dale Alcock Homes. The display home was required to be shot with talent in a natural way. The images were shot to look very naturally lit however each shot required considerable time and artificial lights to achieve this. Slow shutter speeds was used to achieve motion blur in some images while others used shallow depth of field to achieve a fresh look. A prop stylist was on hand to style each image through out the day.
