Architectural Photographer South Africa

Colin Stephenson photography for architectural photography & interior design photography throughout Africa. Our clients include architects, engineers, interior designers, corporate businesses and estate agents and commercial clients.

I understand what a great photographic interior photo shoot requires. Great angles, straight walls, and correct lighting make a massive difference to the shot. It also helps to do different angles in the same room. Shooting strong compositions to create beautiful lines in the final interior photography.

I document buildings and interiors, utilising an artistic ‘lens’ to create a lasting impression. Architectural photography suits my working methods and temperament; with a focus on technique and spatial exploration, the aim is to produce exceptional imagery through meticulous composition, attention to detail, considered lines, textural contrasts and an acknowledgment of environment and context.

My architectural photography ultimately stands alone, providing the viewer with the experience of the building from an emotional, atmospheric or design perspective.

Colin Stephenson specialising in producing photographic imagery of the built environment, architecture photography for a range of prestigious clients around the world.

Colin Stephenson Interior Photography

Colin Stephenson’s Interior Photography aims to make the space look and feel natural. Good interior photography uses natural light as much as possible. But you’ll still most likely need the aid of strobes or flashes to fill in shadows.

When using any artificial light, you want to make sure to bounce or diffuse it. And to adjust the strength of the lights so that it maintains a natural look.
Bouncing the light can be a simple matter of pointing it towards a wall behind you or the ceiling. You can also diffuse the light with various types of softboxes and umbrellas.

While less is more, don’t be afraid to add some small styling touches! When working with interior designers, my role is to give a professional photographic opinion about the setup. And then to adjust decor as needed.

Consider whether the scene looks better with a specific item. Does the decorative piece add something to the vignette? Do the colour and texture work well? Does it feel cluttered or too empty? Does it feel natural? Is the decorative piece high-end and beautiful?

Get Rid of Any Clutter in interior photography for the best results. It may seem obvious, but clearing the clutter is an absolute must. We want to see that gorgeous counter-top marble. Or see how the light hits the custom alcove with only one stunning sculpture in it.

As an interior photographer, it’s part of my job to tell your client how to prepare the space for photos. Relay the value of a clean space before the photoshoot.

Colin Stephenson, a professional Interior Photography expert to guide you through the process of shooting great interiors for real estate and hotels.

Property and Architectural Photography Knysna, George and Plettenberg bay

Garden Route Architectural Photographer Colin Stephenson specialises in Interior and Exterior Architectural Photography. His unique approach to photography explores beyond conventional points of view and delves into the artistic portrayal of the essence of architectural form. Dynamic mood, shape, light, and contrast, as well as construction methodology and materials, all serve as inspiration. Architects, interior designers, property developers, estate agents, restauranteurs and hoteliers delight in Colin Stephenson’s unique artistic approach to interior and exterior architectural images.

Exterior architectural photography takes advantage of available daylight, or early evening light, using ambient light from adjacent street lights, landscape lights, exterior building lights, moonlight and even twilight present in the sky in all but the darkest situations.

Aerial photography using a drone or aerial photography mast allows for placing the building in the landscape in Knysna. In architectural photography, the landscaping surrounding a building is important to the overall composition of a photograph, and even necessary to communicate the aesthetic harmony of a building and its environment.
