My first job with an interior designer in four days. I’m trying to cram all the tips I can. Your videos have been helpful. Thank you!🙏🏼 Such a transition coming from a wedding/portrait photographer. Much more detailed.
#6. Get cozy with Photoshop.
VERY true!
And Lightroom 😅
I haven't been more enlightened or motivated in the field of architecture Photography than this. Great video👍🏽
some of the best videos I've seen on the subject. concise and engaging. Well done Matt. Keep going.
I'm a relatively amateur architecture photographer myself and whilst I've heard a lot of what you've shared before, it's always been from a mix of different sources so this is a great resource.
Some great points here. Especially the consistent lighting.
I really like the information you share. You're delivery isn't the "how to" so much as it is the "let's talk about this and share what I have experienced" in the manner of a very good conversation.
i recently started watching your videos. Aside your content being great, you videos themselves are very entertaining to watch. I'm a big fan
For a newbie this was an amazing source of information for me. Thank you.
Great stuff! I’d like to transition from doing RE to more designer/arch work. Found your article first, with the video embedded in it!
This was a great video! I have been a marketing coordinator for an architect firm for two years and spent the past year learning basic photography and investing in cameras in preparation of some big jobs wrapping up construction. Most videos and tutorials on photography are based on portraits so I’ve been struggling. This was direct and easy to understand, well done!
I was actually doing 3 of these tips before getting a proper camera so I feel smart as most of those tips felt natural to me and didn’t know they were actually a spoken rule of some kind.
very well said man!, love your videos and work!
I think the correct camera height for a given space is key, and shooting certain spaces too high or too low is a big giveaway
I'm happy I found this channel which I was looking for. Thanks a ton Matthew for the valuable tips. You have earned a subscriber. Love from India 🇮🇳
Great and essential tips. Thanks Matt
Thank you so much Matthew. Great content.
Real Estate Photographer here taking a look through your perspective about architectural photography.
Generally when I shoot an upscale home that’s either been staged by a professional, or done very well, I try to visualize the story they’re telling.
I know people think it’s strange, but I’ve told them the home speaks to me. It’s my job to listen.
Even though some of your examples for architectural concepts are over the top for a Real Estate package, I love hearing about them because sometimes I have time to kill or there’s too good of a story not to tell it respectfully.
Thanks again for your insight.
Really great video. So many great tips, I’ll have to revisit to cement the info
Thank you. Very informative. New to Real Estate Photography - and this was a huge help.
Thank you for this.. im gonna use this for architectural renderings
When i started out was going round chatting to lots of Estate Agents about how they take photos only when you see great pictures in their windows and if not best opportunity to see if they need help. most these days have walk though videos and that are bad productions. we strive to get the best for our clients but on inspection of their jobs would you reject where it makes your work look bad. At the end of the day its to be happy with our content
Thank you Mathew, Great video.
Great content. Thank you Matthew
Great video Matthew, my wife is about to start working with me in Arch photographer and this is one of the videos I told her to watch! Thank you 👏
You're very welcome. I'm glad it helped!
Thanks so much for the great explanation.
Good information. Thank you!
Thank you for this video
Thank u So Much sir ❤️
thanks for your useful information
This is supper helpful, could some of these tips also work for taking pictures of architecture models?
Amazing video
Thanks alot am a 3d visualiser n ur tips helped my renders alot❤❤❤ lots of love from India
Great video thx
Great video. Just wondering about shooting outside. Surely you’d want the sun behind the camera so that it is creating shadows on the facade of the building?
this was great but you didn't mention focal lengths at all. do you have any tips for your favorite ones for the type of photography you went over in this video? thanks.
Nice bro ❤
Liked it! Will share ;)
what angle do you shoot small spaces as bathrooms, which angle to keep the vertical lines without distortion?
Thank you ! What temperature should i set for interior photography generally..? Please reply
Are there any portable lights that you have to take with you or others recommend to gain soft shadows
Hi mathew, should i use wide lens to shoot empty mini theater, or should a 18 - 150mm lens just fine? It has no sunlight just led light.
Hello Matthew, I'm an event/portrait photographer making the transition to interior photography. I've been in business for a decade; any additional tips or suggestions as I learn the fundamentals of interior photograph?
Hey hey, Matthew! I've Canon 5D Mark II and I don't have a digital stabilizer. Can I use a grid when I switch to display mode?
I have a Canon R5 & R6, with RF15-35 2.8. Is that wide enough?
Also, why doesn’t anyone discuss circular polarizers for reflections.
And if you need to match colour tone; take out one of the lamps (bulb) and check out it’s kelvin rating and match it in camera.
Thank you Matthew. I'm struggle to become a decent Interior Photographer. More or less I'm apply those 5 rules, but I'm often in trouble to fix color cast on walls and ceiling in order to have a "clean" image with pure withe. For you, is it a lack of skills in Photoshop or mistakes during the shooting ? Thanks.
Hi Oliver! In my opinion, color casts are about a 60/40 split. 40% can be taken care of on-site and 60% is dealt with in editing. I think a short 'tips & tricks' video on getting white walls is something I should put together soon.
@@MatthewAPhoto Thank you for that.
great video! i guess some of my initial questions are 1) have you seen many pros using an older canon eos rebel t5 camera? 2) i noticed quite a few arch photography photos of kitchens always seem kind of a neutral tone, not too bright not too dull. We primarily design kitchens and we want our kitchen photos to 'pop' and be super bright and happy , problem is this brightness seems to affect the real colors of the wood etc. How do you solve this.
Shooting in HDR then blending will help you achieve the look if you want. Let me know if you need help
What if the actual walls are bumpy and not straight? Are we supposed to get them straightened in the pictures?
I use a crappy tripod but it’s cheap and it’s lightweight. It works, sort of. But I really need to get a better one.
Yes. One question. If you shoot that shot with interior lights only, what about flash? Because it has different colour temperature also.
Place a cto gel on the flash to match the color tone of the interior lights
Super new here! You may already have a video out that pertains to this and if so please point me that direction!
You’re saying here to shoot into the light, but that’s my problem exactly! Especially with windows that are blowing out objects near the window. What do I do? Would a soft box help this?
Maybe diffuse the window light or shoot at a slightly different time when the sun isn’t blasting in.
Helpful video. One question. What height should we be shooting at/from? Natural eye-level?😊
There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to this. Depends on the type and size of space.
Need to know multiple exposure
Hey Matt, miss your new videos!
Got some more coming my friend. Work has been insanely busy recently so YT videos had to take a spot on the back burner for a while. I should be able to record again next week.
@@MatthewAPhoto Appreciate that! your thought process in dissecting the scene is awesome. Thanks for serving us with your insights in the middle of your busyness. Take care!
