08 Jan Light, please: architectural photography
Aesthetics, design, art, inspiration – architectural photography is much more than “just a picture of a building”. As professional photographers in Luxembourg, we present your project in visually attractive shots.
Architecture photography can take place both indoors and outdoors and includes a variety of subjects such as skyscrapers, historic buildings, bridges, churches, museums, commercial properties, private homes and much more. A professional photographer knows how to emphasize the architectural elements of a building, while taking into account the composition, light and perspective of the photo.
It is about placing and framing the building in such a way that a balanced image is created. In real estate photos, the photographer has little influence on the subject – that’s why his decisions about composition and lighting during the photo shoot are extremely important. The use of lines, shapes and symmetry helps to achieve a strong composition. The choice of perspective also affects the effect of the image. Very crucial in architecture photography is the light and the relationship with the time of day and weather conditions. The right timing during the day is important to take advantage of natural light, just like the right time of year. Strong shadows are often just as undesirable as trees without leaves and other disturbing details.
In architectural photography, however, the artistic aspects are not always in the foreground. Many clients want buildings or real estate – for commercial purposes – to be photographed on a clear day as realistically as possible.
Knowing the factors we consider as professional photographers makes the difference between an average shot and a stunning image. Together we will find the perfect staging for your project.
