Laguna Beach Aerials

I got to do some aerials the other day for a great client of mine, Auction.com. I work with their luxury home division – helping with their photography needs. I got the call to shoot one of their new properties in Laguna Beach located on the coast. What’s really going to sell this place is the location. So I suggested maybe doing some aerial shots of the home would be a great asset in their marketing. I got the go ahead, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results – as were they! Have a look at a few more shots past the break!

Day to Day: 37 North Stonington, Laguna Beach

I was contacted a few weeks ago to photograph this home that’s more of a “for sale by owner”. The weather wasn’t ideal, but I ended up getting some pretty nice interior shots! It’s located in Three Arch Bay in Laguna Beach – with some killer ocean views. Although it was cloudy, through the powers of Photoshop, I made a few shots work. Check out some more of the shots past the break!

Day to Day; 1408 Dolphin Ter, Corona del Mar

I had the opportunity to shoot a home for Auction.com in Corona del Mar last week. It was an awesome two hours and then back later that day to do twilight shots! This home is more of a “Soft Modern” style. Nice clean lines with lots of warm wood throughout. It was a welcomed change from the usual stuff I get to shoot. Have a look at the full post for some more images!

Day to Day; 8 Avenida del Corro, Coto de Caza

Last week I shot another property for Mike Ameel with Coto de Caza Realty. Wasn’t his usual grand estate listings, but still quite fun to shoot none the less. I was chatting with the owner and found out her past husband was an architect – which shows in the furniture. Nice clean lines and tailored look. Photographs nicely! Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day.

Day to Day; 32311 Caribbean, Monarch Beach


What a challenge!!! This was one of the more difficult homes I’ve shot. When I first arrived I was met with bright windows and a dark wood interior. After fighting with the extremely difficult dynamic range in each photograph, I ended up with some great shots! I got to come back later in the day to get some twilight and epic view shots. Be sure to read the full post to see some more of the final images.

Day to Day; Branches, Ladera Ranch

Just wrapped up this shoot today in Ladera Ranch. Really nice home to photograph. Although the weather outside was somewhat gloomy, it made for some really nice interior shots! We caught a break when we moved to the exterior as the sun started poking through the clouds. All in all – great success!

Be sure to read the full post for some more of the final images.

Day to Day; Laguna Lido, Laguna Beach


Man, life is tough at the beach. Even though I felt like I was on vacation, I had some serious work on my hands. When I first arrived I was pretty excited – nicely decorated home, great views and finishes, what more could you ask for? Then I noticed the bad – not so bright interior, bright white clouds outside, and low ceilings. All equal up to be a bit of a challenge, especially when you are going to want to see the view through the windows. I spent a little extra time on site, which saved me some time in front of my computer – always a win for me. Be sure to read the full post to see some more of the final images!

Day to Day; 411 Edgewater, Newport Beach

 

Remember this shot from last week? This is the follow up post with the final images! It was a fun and challenging day and night, but in the end the agent was pleased. He had a specific look he wanted and it took some extra time on my part to get the right compositions and lighting. Have a look at the full post to see more of the final images.

Day to Day; Knightsbridge in Irvine

A few images from a relatively busy week last week. Had the opportunity to shoot this lovely Cape Cod style home in Irvine. I’ve done a few for this agent and I love working with her. More shots past the break!
