Create beautiful images of indoor spaces and learn the essentials of planning, shooting, and post-production
Interior spaces can express mood, tell stories, and create aspiration—even simultaneously within a single image. Whether it’s white walls and clean lines or colorful furniture and eccentric details, interior photography is about capturing that emotion by balancing light, composition, and depth to make viewers feel like they’re actually there.
In this course, join photographer James Rajotte and learn how to capture the beauty of interior spaces through the lens of your camera. From preparation to post-production, discover how James practices experimentation and patience to produce professional architectural images that highlight the uniqueness of any indoor space.

The course is very good to get started in interior photography. At times it seemed very technical to me. It focuses more on the subsequent editing than at the moment of photographing but it helped me a lot. Without a doubt I recommend it!

I took the course to take photos of two apartments that I rent. The course is perfect, it gives very useful advice in a clear and concise way. You need to know the basics of photography and have a camera that can take photographs manually. In this case everything is very simple and clear.
