My approach
The design choices tell their own story. Natural timber floors meet walnut cabinetry. Cool stone benchtops balance the warmth. Light shifts through a kitchen skylight and large windows, changing the mood from morning to evening. The open-plan layout flows straight to the outdoors—sculptural planting, layered paving, a firepit that extends the home's rhythm into the landscape.
My job was to show how these elements actually feel. Not perfection, but presence. How light moves across surfaces. How thoughtful design invites you to pause.
I shot interiors, exteriors, twilight, and drone angles to build a visual story that mirrors the space itself: bright mornings, calm evenings, everything in between. Each frame highlights craftsmanship and the quiet details that make a house feel like home.
