Harbour View Photography

Open plan spaces are great to live in and photograph. Often the key to taking good compositions isn’t trying to capture the whole space from a corner but rather selecting angles that tell the story of the room whilst providing the understanding of the wider environment.

It is always interesting to see how my different clients and home owners stage their property ahead of a shoot.

Mostly the staging is done in keeping with both the style of the house and also the intended purpose of the photos (E.g. show home, interior designer portfolio, holiday let or for sale).

This house had a real history to it and the staging completed by the owners was mindful of the properties age and character whilst continuing to make the interior feel modern.

This property had gone through some extensive changes to finish with a truly stunning open plan living space that flowed straight out onto the patio. Large skidding doors and selective paving made the transition between inside and out seamless.

This was a stunning period property that has been restored to a very high standard. I love the double height space the main living area provides.

Capturing images of a space is often a balance between allowing the viewer to get a feel for how the spaces interact, but also to highlight an aspect of a space.

I thought the reconditioned sliding doors in this indoor swimming pool were a great feature so decided to make them the feature of this image.

The more I understand photography, the more I realise how important light is to the quality of a photo.

For interior photography I often get asked to photograph property on a sunny day. Whilst this is great for the external quite often the interiors photograph best with soft light, for instance when it’s a overcast but bright day. These conditions provide a lovely soft light that creates less harsh shadows but whilst allowing shadows to be formed creating depth to a photo.

I’m looking forwards to continuing my life long exploration of the art of photography whilst providing my clients with exceptional images.

I loved seeing this composition at a property recently photographed for a client. The combination of vertical and angled lines with the partially hidden portrait photos in the background really set it apart.

I’m always looking for ways to add value to my clients.

Short, teaser videos are great for sharing on social media and for keeping audiences updated and engaged.
