I think I may have written previously about how shooting neon is difficult. When photographing a space, unless you are using a good deal of lights which can evenly and softly mimic natural light in such a way where the interior space is as bright as the exterior, you are often having to comp together two or more photos (in some cases most of my final images can have up to ten different exposures). Such is the same with neon, which is usually brighter than anything else in a room - our eyes are just good at adjusting to not be phased by it. It’s seldom you’ll see neon in an apartment but for this staged home it exudes a youthful spirit that will hopefully tenants into the artistic community of Bushwick.
