3 ways to photograph nightstands

January 11, 2022 in Interiors

Designers put a lot of time and effort into sourcing pieces and styling each corner of a room so it’s important to capture details when photographing interiors. For this room, Leann Ban Interiors created a balanced bedroom while customizing the items on each nightstand according to the person who would be using it.

The details highlight an interior designer’s style and aesthetic and I love showcasing that for their potential clients. To do that, here are 3 angles I love for photographing nightstands:

1. Straight on

Leading lines, grids, symmetry. It gives you a sense of order and calm.

2. View from across the bed

I love this one because it feels relaxed to me.

3. Wide angle of both nightstands

And of course, a nice wide view to capture the entire room.

Went on a πŸŸ‘πŸ’›β­οΈπŸŸ¨ colour hunt in Japan and Taiwan ☺️ Which one’s your favourite? I love the ones with the ginkgo tree and flatbed truck.

When this long kitchen was divided by a peninsula, @belyndacheninteriors changed the layout and flow by turning it into an island. This created more countertop space for food prep, more storage, and still included seating.
