Autumn is a lovely time of year to photograph exteriors. Although homeowners are constantly clearing fallen leaves the colour on offer is glorious. Shooting this property at height allowed me to capture the depth of this home and the far reaching views behind, showing off the amazing Autumnal colour.
When photographing this kitchen I had to be very aware of what was outside... lots of snow! Which being a property photographer I naturally try and avoid, as it dates the images and indicates how long the property has been on the market. I mainly settled on compositions I thought suited the space whilst pushing the window exposure as much as possible. After all, I want the viewers eye to be focusing her on the inside and design of this kitchen/dining area. The warm lighting here really helps to show this as an inviting place to be.
This month's update a little later than usual, as I've just returned from a short holiday to Budapest. We enjoyed some much needed r&r, and our warm weather clothing was also needed! It's safe to say that Hungary is also pretty chilly at this time of year. This month's photo was taken from nearly 400 feet, the maximum altitude I'm permitted to fly. Anything higher than this is into helicopter territory. I was capturing the relationship here between the farmhouse, the formal gardens and several paddocks belonging to it. Thanks to the drone I was able to capture the property with all of it's land in one image. Sadly I don't 'feel' in control enough piloting with gloves on, so my fingers just about held out to land the aircraft before they dropped off.
This garden was a real joy to photograph. Tropically inspired, it has been carefully planned and planted by its loving owner. The design and layout create plenty of depth, inviting you to walk through and enjoy its calming sanctuary.
