This Holyrood road serviced accommodation is located in a prime location in town. It is within walking distance of the Royal Mile, the Scottish parliament, the Palace of Holyroodhouse and South Bridge.
We were lucky in that the sun was out the day of the photoshoot. Fortunately for me, the sun didn’t directly shine into the flat. This produces high contrast scenes that are difficult to capture with a camera. A blue sky gives the photographs a nice look and feel.
Note the nice artwork decorating this flat, and its colour coordination with the rooms the art is displayed in. A nicely decorated flat will likely attract more customers on Booking.com or Airbnb.
I like to shoot with natural light, because it shows how the rooms actually looks like. It poses technical difficulties, because cameras can’t see the same range of highlights and shadows as the human eye. I therefore have to combine images taken with different exposure settings to mimic what the human eye can see.
