The challenge

Capture the experience of the space.

The goal was to create artistic, lifestyle-focused images for Arbor Homes. The photographs needed to communicate the atmosphere of the properties as well as document the rooms and design choices.

The approach

Build a sense of discovery.

We photographed through doorways, around corners and into reflections, using details such as furniture, books and flowers as starting points. Wider architectural elements and views of nature then gave context to each scene. Geometric perspectives highlighted intentional shapes and relationships within the homes.

The work

Look for design details

Lighting, fixtures, tile, furniture and artwork helped explain the character of each property.

Connect the interior with nature

Windows and landscape views became part of the composition, showing how the architecture relates to its setting.

Refine the finished photographs

Editing addressed mixed-light color, distractions and reflections. Selected exterior skies used original Iowa photographs from our collection, and visible house numbers were retouched for owner privacy.

Project outcome

A visual collection built around atmosphere.

The finished photographs provide a range of architectural, lifestyle and detail images for Arbor Homes. The gallery keeps the original project imagery together, including images previously referenced by the broken accordion layout.
