When I shoot interiors, my approach usually involves capturing spaces in two different ways. Example A is taken from the corner of the room, showing as much coverage as possible—often including three walls or even combining two rooms in one frame. This style makes the space feel larger and gives a clear sense of layout.
Example B is shot straight on, from the center of the room or aligned with the main feature. These are my personal favourites — they feel more balanced, cleaner, and tend to have less distortion. This is the style I lean towards for my portfolio, and it's closer to how I’d shoot for an interior designer (though I’d usually switch out the 15mm lens for something like a 35mm or 50mm).
My process involves delivering a full set of images — contact sheets with a basic edit so clients can select the shots that best fit their needs. Once selections are made, the final images are professionally edited by my post-production team. If deadlines are tight and the client isn’t able to take part in that stage, I’m happy to make the selections myself and tailor the final set to suit the client and how the images will be used.
For estate agents, I usually favour the wider corner shots (like Example A) because they clearly showcase the space and layout— perfect for estate agent photos. For interior designers, I prefer the more balanced, straight-on shots (Example B), which better complement their style. For For short-stay hosts, my property photography services take a hybrid approach, combining both framing styles with additional detail shots to capture the unique character of the space.
