Hoboken Studio

Most studios are either one interrupted area or an annexed area but the studio below has a more interesting layout. Were the bedroom to have windows and a door, it could be legally called a bedroom but it remains a studio, and a unique one to boot.

One Ten Amenities

This has definitely been touched upon in other posts but it’s so wonderful when a space is artfully lit so that most of the work of a photographer is already done. That isn’t to say there isn’t a skill in finding the light, much like a photographer would shoot in natural light but since the photos are shot to highlight the space, and the lighting of a space like below does the same, it makes for a more harmonious shoot when those two factors work in tandem.

118 Washington

There’s something about wallpapers that just gets me so excited. Maybe it’s the color, maybe it’s that I’m a sucker for patterns, but wallpapers truly inspire joy and I love when I’m entering a home to shoot and there is wallpaper everywhere. Sadly, only one room in this unit had wallpaper but it was enough to fill my fix.

Westside Views

In real estate photography, catching the views is essential to a solid photo. When the weather is clear for a shoot like this, it’s truly kismet. The weather in New York changes so frequently that, except in parts of the summer, you never know what you’re going to get. There are ways to retouch a photo to make it appear as if it were sunny but it’s always better to take photos of the real thing.

404 Park Ave South

Designers will often ask for a photographer of themselves in a space to represent their business. Though my experience in photography stems in interiors, I’ve often had to get resourceful and figure out how to shoot subjects associated with spaces: food/beverage, products, and people. This designer created a wonderfully serene atmosphere with the furnishings selected for the space, and her outfit, luckily, accompanied it quite well.

520 Park Ave

Park Ave has such a loaded connotation. It would be interesting to live in a basement studio unit with a bathtub in the middle of room and happen to have your address be Park Avenue. “I have to wash my hair within feet of where I chop my vegetables but at least I live on Park Avenue!” Such was not the case for this apartment that a gorgeous kitchen, and many other gorgeous spaces with plenty of light and beautiful design pieces. And it happens to be on Park Avenue.
