INTERIOR DESIGN PHOTOGRAPHY

I style your design - As interior design photographer I aim to photograph the essence of your design without including any distracting elements. I shoot in the best natural light and accent lights where applicable and add, remove or nudge around props and objects in order to make everything look just so.

I showcase the details - My background in interior design enables me to understand how much work has gone into the important details. I showcase these for you with lifestyle vignettes. I love a casual "less is more" approach to enhance, not overshadow, your design.

I highlight your quality - An innovative design means nothing without good quality and skilled craftsmanship. I get close to the design elements such as beautiful joinery details, furniture or decorations, carefully capturing the artistry which make up your vision.

Refined vs raw, I show contrast - One of the abilities of an interior designer is to combine materials of different natures, such as luminescent with dark colours or polished with matt finishes. I highlight this designed contrast for you with carefully composed images.

Kai takes images from a different point of view such as this wooden bench with a fancy handbag taken from the top down.

I show another point of view - Designs and spaces can look completely different, just by changing the point of view. When applicable I like to shoot your project from a different perspective. Looking outside the box can help accentuate certain features in your design.

INTERIOR DESIGN PHOTOGRAPHY

Your designer bathroom - Beautiful bathroom photography can be quite challenging due to tighter spaces and surface reflections. I shoot from different angles and in various lighting conditions and make sure the bathroom looks uncluttered and inviting.
