One of the best things that can be done to prepare for a home photo shoot is to diminish clutter. For this article we'll be using a bathroom as an example. Often when we are in a "real" place our brains ignore items like shampoo bottles, tissue boxes, toothpaste etc. However, when we look at a photo something happens and all those items steal the show.
Here's an example of a bathroom that hasn't been groomed to showcase the room. Instead we are mostly aware of the many hygiene items left about and we wonder about the homeowner's cleaning habits.
Looking at the above image, you're brain probably doesn't even register that this bathroom has lots of counter space and a lovely glass shower door. However, after taking a couple of minutes to put everything away, the result is a much more pleasing image that showcases the room's features.
Also note how a bit of greenery was placed into the shot, which adds softness and color. For more on plants refer back to my previous article, Flower Power.
