Twilight is the time between day and night when there is still light out ,but the Sun is just below the horizon. The sky has such beautiful warm colors in the sky, the lights of the town and homes are now on, and many are gathering by a fire in their outdoor patios. This time of day definitely has some beautiful moments, so why wouldn't you want to capture it?
Traditional Twilight Photography
When it comes to real estate photography, Twilight shots are a great way to capture:
- Perspective of the home at night.
- Where all the lights are located throughout the exterior of the home.
- Grand windows, and seeing the glow of the lights inside the home.
- Landscaping, and highlighting features of the home, such as pools and firepits.
Traditionally, real estate photographers will set an appointment during twilight hours to create a twilight photo. This can get expensive and time consuming for both parties, especially if most of the shooting has been completed throughout the day. It is recommended that a natural twilight shoot be done if the photographer is going to already be there capturing a twilight video, in this case the photos will compliment the video greatly.
