Behind the Scenes: Capturing the White House for Stones and Shires

Dining Room

Earlier last year, I had the opportunity to collaborate with Stone and Shires on a unique project—photographing the White House, their former home, now transformed into a showroom for their real estate development company.

The Vision

White House is a stunning blend of timeless elegance and contemporary design. My goal was to create imagery that highlighted the property’s architectural beauty, its carefully curated interiors, and its role as an inspiration hub for future clients of Stone and Shires. Every shot needed to balance warmth and sophistication while maintaining a clean, editorial feel.

The Approach

To achieve this, I used natural light along with the lighting provided by the house to enhance textures and details without overpowering the space. I shot the project using:

  • Camera: Sony A7R III

  • Lenses: EF 16-35mm f/2.8 for wide-angle interior shots, EF 24-70mm f/2.8 for detailed compositions

  • Tripod: Manfrotto 190XPro for consistency in framing and long exposures

Post-production was focused on subtle enhancements—balancing natural tones, refining highlights and shadows, and ensuring the images conveyed a polished yet inviting aesthetic. I used Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop for final colour grading, ensuring a cohesive look that aligned with Stone and Shires’ brand identity.

The Result

From striking architectural compositions to intimate interior details, each image was crafted to showcase the White House not just as a home, but as a statement of design and vision. Seeing my work play a role in how Stone and Shires present their approach to real estate development has been an incredibly rewarding experience.
