Wall art is like the icing on the cake of a well decorated space. Take for instance these gorgeous turquoise paintings adorning the front desk @crownelansing . They are original pieces by a local artist and we love how they ad a nice pop of color to their decor.

How about a nice sunny shot of @kelloggcenter_msu Patio to brighten up this rainy day?
While they are temporarily closed during the pandemic, Kellogg Center is currently being used for student isolation/quarantine housing for MSU. We look forward to the future time when they can reopen safely, but in the meantime, we appreciate and are proud of all their efforts to keep the community healthy and safe.

Isn't this open floor plan @aspenlakesestates (managed by @dtngreen ) so inviting? Nowadays, open floor plans are the preferred architectural design for new construction and renovations, and with good reason. An open floor plan allows for more natural light, a larger feeling space and is great for entertaining (pre COVID, that is). Check out our Custom Virtual Tour of this home: [link in bio]

Let's talk about #GoogleAnalytics, which we use to track our Custom Virtual Tours performance. Two things are really important if you want to know how well your website (which is what our Custom Tours are) is performing: Bounce rate and session duration. For those who don't speak nerd, basically a Bounce is when someone visits a website and leaves right away without clicking on anything (not good, so less of a percentage is better). A session duration is how long someone interacts with the tour (longer is better). Average Bounce rates of 40% are considered good and any time you get 2-3 minutes of session duration, you're really rocking.

So how well do our Custom Tours do? Here are some numbers for the tours we did for the @msuliveon team. Their Bounce rate is less than 10% and average session duration is over 3.5 minutes. Those are really solid numbers! Want to see how they've implemented our tours to get the most out of them? Check out their webpage for the Campbell Hall dorm room: [link in bio]

As the leaves fall from the trees, all the great architecture around @michiganstateu starts to peek out. I've always liked Berkey Hall's facade and doorway. It's such a solid design.

Here is a pic of #BeaumontTower from yesterday's walk around campus. I ran over to the @whartoncenter after this was taken. I had to wait my turn as there were at least 3 other photographers (mostly taking pictures of people in their cap and gown) who were there as well. I wasn't the only one taking in the sights...

I just love the architecture of the @1855place building on MSU's campus. It's got such modern and clean lines. I was driving home from my photo in front of the @whartoncenter and just had to stop and shoot it too!

Lifestyle Photography is the art of the everyday.

Lifestyle Photography is the art of the everyday. It’s like custom stock photos for your business. This type of imagery can add authenticity to your marketing materials and campaigns. Generic stock images harm your trustworthiness in the eyes of consumers because everyone can spot a stock photo now-a-days. Let us help you build more trust in your clients and prospects.

That's what the @crownelansing did. After our big virtual tour photoshoot was done, they invited us back to shoot a Lifestyle session at their newly renovated front desk. They wanted to highlight some of the great art they had done by local artists. I really love the paintings behind Raquel in this image. They are so peaceful. 😍

Today's weather is giving me the #indiansummer vibes. The pools were not open nearly long enough! This photo was taken just 6 weeks ago for the @retreatatfarmingtonhills, but it could be today for how nice it is outside...

Let's talk camera gear for a moment. One of my favorite additions to our camera bag last year was a tilt-shift lens. Specifically, the @canonusa TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II. It is one of the sharpest lenses I have ever used. After a year of shooting with it, I finally feel like I'm starting to figure it out. It's really slow to shoot with because it's totally manual (no autofocus even), but it makes up for that in image quality.

If you'll indulge me nerding out for a moment, I'll explain what a tilt-shift lens is all about. These special lenses have the ability to correct converging verticals. For instance, have you ever seen an image of a building and it looks like it's falling backwards? That's convergence. The TS has the ability to move the lens axis (or optical centre) to compensate for the distortion. You can actually bend the lens to straighten out an image, which is super cool. Some convergence can be fixed in photoshop, but if you want to get it right in camera, you'll need a TS. 🤓📷

It was a dreary fall day this morning in Dundee, MI. But we got a few dry moments between raindrops to snap some outdoor pictures. We were at the @greatlakeseateryandpub near the big Cabela's down there. We'll have a #GoogleTour ready for them soon.

If you're in the area, I highly recommend the Lake Michigan Braised Pork sandwich. It was AMAZING! :-D

If you caught my story yesterday, you saw that I was at the College Manor Apartments. Photoshoots like that make me feel like a treasure hunter. I must have driven by this charming building in Downtown East Lansing 1,000 times, but I never realized that there were apartments inside. Since it is right across from MSU, it offers spectacular views of the Downtown area.

It was great being able to shoot all of their room types for them. This will enable them to better show off their awesome space online without risking anyone's safety. Our team will be building a premium DSLR 360 Virtual Tour for their website. We process all of our 360 images using HDR techniques so that you can see the outside views just as good as the inside.

Check out the remodel of the @crownelansing in all it's 360 glory. This is one of my favorite lobbies in Lansing. Don't you just love that chandelier? The elevator helps you get a sense of the scale of it.

This particular lobby is a good example of how 360 (aka spherical) images can help highlight grandiose elements of a property. The ability to pan up and see what's above you is a great way to show off overhead elements.

Check it out for yourself by taking our #GoogleTour: [link in bio]

I fell in love with the brick walls and step-down living rooms at @crossingsatcantoncommunity. Exposed brick in an apartment reminds me of the years I spent living in New York City, but the rent is WAY more affordable in Canton, MI!

One of the highlights of our year is when the "change over" happens for our student housing clients. While this year certainly wasn't normal, we still had a great time working for @dtngreen over the last couple of weeks.

Pictured here is a newly remodeled 2x1 at the @glenwoodapts in #EastLansing. I just love under-cabinet lighting and the way it photographs! It makes a kitchen that much more inviting. Although I can never seem to pick the right light switch when prepping a kitchen (I always seem to start the garbage disposal). It's like a running joke on our shoots. If I was a betting man, I would lose every time. 😆
