Ojai Victorian

A Victorian inspired newer home set on a small property. It faces north so never receives the sun on the front, entrance side creating lighting problems in showing the house in its best light.
Country: United States
This lovely reproduction Victorian "Americana" house faces north and never receives the sun. Using HDR, it is possible nevertheless to obtain a pleasing, if not ultimate, photographic representation of the front view, however, a twilight shot with the warm light from the windows bidding welcome....

This is a closer view using the compression of distance that a telephone lens provides. Peter D'Aprix Photographer

This is the house shot with early morning sun. The front is always in shade, but with the use of HDR and work in Photoshop, the details and architectural elements at least stand out. But the most arresting shots are those made at twilight. This is especially important for print ads and to catch the...

This is the side of the house that receives sunlight all day. It picks out the architectural elements strongly when it is a cross light. But in the afternoon, it is a dappled light from the trees that, while attractive, visually obscures the architectural features. Peter D'Aprix Photographer

Where houses have a "flow through" interior, I try to give a feeling of how one space leads on into the next. This front entry hosts the main stairs case and leads straight ahead to the large family and media room with its fire place. It in turn leads into the breakfast room and kitchen (shown...

In this version of the formal dining room, the focus is on the plank flooring and the light coming in the windows. Peter D'Aprix Photographer

The most notable features of this family dining room or breakfast room is its plank flooring and the curved wall of windows that admit such lovely sun. It is also open to the kitchen (next photo)Peter D'Aprix Photographer

There are times, such as in small spaces like this bathroom, when to fully correct for parallax distortion from an ultra wide angle lens, means you have to cut off important details such as a sink or door way out at the edges of the photograph. Here I did not correct all the way in order to retain...

In real estate, some shots are designed to show features of interest to a buyer rather than to make award winning images. This is such a one. It shows the open beamed ceiling, the frontage windows and the fire place. Peter D'Aprix Photographer

This, on the other hand, is intended to make a stronger visual statement while bringing attention to the open, beamed ceiling and the plank flooring. Peter D'Aprix Photographer

As well as showing the bathroom, the focus here is on the lovely soft diffuse light that pours into the room. Peter D'Aprix Photographer
