How to Photograph an Office

As with any room in commercial or residential buildings, there are a few ways to make an office background look as appealing as possible. Take the factors listed below into consideration.

Lighting

If you aren't able to get enough light through the windows--some offices just appear darker due to their very nature, try using the flash. But instead of pointing the light directly in the direction of the windows and cause glare reflecting in the windows, aim it at the ceiling.

Angles

The offices in your home, on the other hand tend to be small, which can pose several challenges--namely, capturing the entire space in one image. In order to get the perfect picture (and to make the room seem larger when you're doing it) Try with a wide-angle camera. In general, lenses that are that are between 16 to 24 mm give you the best picture. Any wider, like the 8mm lens and you'll end up with a fisheye effect.
