Architectural Photography

Photography

May 28

Hello friends. Juicebeats here.
Over the past year, I have been studying and learning so much about photography—the importance of great glass (lenses), composition, lighting, full frame vs. crop sensor, and many more essential elements to create great photography. I have also been learning the different types of photography, and while I consider myself a portrait photographer, I also dabble in other types of photography. I did some real estate photography this past weekend and learned some of the challenges that come along with this type of photography. The first thing I learned was that outside elements can really be distracting, so cleaning up the area beforehand is a must. Also, all rooms are different with interesting angles, so I had to try several different compositions before getting the best shot for each room. I now know I need to use a wide angle lens—16-35mm, 14-24mm, maybe even an 11mm—to get most of the room in the shot. A monopod or tripod ensured steady and level shots. Also, I tried to convey the flow of the house, so people can do a virtual "walk" through like they are actually in the house for a viewing. Here is one of my first projects for architectural / real estate photography.

Looking forward to more projects like this.

Jason Messing

Who are we? We are Jason and Staci Messing, a husband and wife photography team based in Knoxville, Tennessee. We met in 2007, starting dating in 2008, and have been together ever since. We were married at the Capitol Theatre in Maryville in 2012, and our special day actually led to our interest in photography and inspired us to pursue our dream of owning our own business. (See our wedding story here!) Our family team grew when we had our sweet son, Jaden, in 2014, and he's already reviewing our photos for us.

What's our style? The adjectives we always used to describe our photography style are light, airy, natural and whimsical. We would say our job is to capture all the amazing moments of your big day so that you have a tangible memory of the people, details, and surroundings that make your wedding special. We essentially want your day to look like a fairy tale, and it's all about making even the ordinary exceptional by photographing meaningful and candid moments.

What about the name? Jason's business actually started as one centered around music production and video editing. Juicebeats, his nickname as a producer and rapper, inspired our company name, originally Juicebeats Productions. In 2013, the business evolved into one focused on a new creative outlet, photography, and it was only natural that Staci jumped on board in late 2014 as the 2nd shooter/photographer assistant. We debated a name change (for 12 seconds) until we realized that Juicebeats is unique, memorable, and just us.
