My architectural photography class had the opportunity to shoot this really spectacular home in Laguna Beach as a group project two weeks ago. The combined class photographed the entire house, each group taking a portion. My group shot the patio and the living room. The camera we used was a school Canon EOS 5D mk I and Canon 14mm lens. The camera was “locked down” using a sturdy tripod and sandbags and then the shots were taken at f22 and bracketed about 3 stops each way. For some of the living room shots we blocked out the windows from outside to ensure we got all the necessary detail in the door frames. Each final shot was then composited from multiple images and tweaked into final form.
