BOSTON ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHERS

Architectural photography is a very different discipline to Boston wedding photography or taking portrait images. The number of images you may get from an architectural or interior photography session may be a lot less than you might get from a wedding day, but that does not mean to say that the amount of work that has gone into produce these images is any less.

BOSTON ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHERS

A Boston architectural and interior photographer for example may not need to pose people or be at a number of different locations during the course or a day but the photos that are captured might involve a lot more set up and a lot more post processing afterwards to get them just right. For example the light set up for just one shot may take around an hour or more to get right and afterwards the processing of that image or blending images together may take another couple of hours. The results will be an image that you could not hope to achieve without having put all this time and effort into it. At a wedding you don’t have an hour to set the lighting up for one image as the bride and groom are there to spend time with friends and family.

The Boston and New England area has a great wealth of different architectural types, from modern design to some of the oldest in the USA. Making sure that you capture these buildings and spaces takes time to appreciate them and what their use and purpose is for. Speaking with architects or designers before a shoot can reveal a greater amount of detail and ideas that just turning up to a location to shoot. Things that may seem like minor details to the untrained eye might in fact have been something that had taken a little while to get just right and have a very specific purpose that should be highlighted.

The gear and equipment for interior and architectural photography as well is a little different from other fields of photography as well. Perspective control lenses are very important to maintain straight lines and reduce distortion. While perspective control can be corrected in Photoshop after the shoot getting it just right in camera is far the better option and will produce better higher resolution images that don’t need any cropping in post. It is better to see what you are actually going to get in the image at the time of shooting than realize you have to crop and important element after the shoot, to get the vertical lines in the photo correct.

Should I do a Boston Engagement session before my wedding

A question that I often get asked is whether or not you should have an engagement shoot before your Boston wedding day. The answer is that it is really up to you but that if you do it will definitely put you in good stead for the wedding day and having your photos taken then. It get you comfortable with your photographer and it means that you’ll be more used to having yourselves in front of the camera.

Getting your photo taken isn’t something that you do every day, unless you are a model maybe so you won’t be used to what to expect when you are in front of the camera. An engagement session in Boston or some other part of New England for that matter would be a great way of spending a bit of time together as a couple so that you get used to having photos taken and also come away with some great shots of the two of you in a more comfortable environment.

I shoot a lot of weddings here in Boston and capturing those days on a regular basis means I know what to expect from the day and shooting with a couple. If I have already had an engagement shoot with them somewhere then I and they know what we are expecting and how a shoot might go. If I’m working with a couple and the day of their wedding is the first time that they are in front of the camera it can take a little bit monger to get those photos that you are after, simply because it take a while to relax and feel settled in front of the camera.

Know how long it actually takes to get a good selection of photos is something that I talk with my couples about before even shooting. Sometimes though it isn’t until you actually take the time to do a shoot that you realize that it isn’t just stand in front of the camera and snap, there you go great images in the bag. Once you realize that it takes a little longer then having that practice run before hand can really help speed things up on a day that you are going to want to spend time with you friends and family rather than standing in front of me taking your pictures with you posing for them.

They are looking into developing a fruit delivery to the office in London.
