In its simplest form, texture is anything that adds dimension to a room. This could be anything from a fluffy pillow, a wooden floor, to a hard uneven brick wall. It’s an element that adds a feeling, which designers like to use texture to create an accent in a specific room. You would typically find that smooth textures make a room feel cooler, which creates that ultra modern vibe/feel. Whereas rough textures will often make a room feel warmer and create a more traditional feel.
You might be asking yourself “but why do you care about textures as a photographer” well here’s the best thing… We use textures in our everyday photography sessions… we’re basically trend setters!

Our photographers will use texture as a visual design element in order to bring the photograph to life, to make it feel more three dimensional and interesting. Texture can be created by using depth of field, which is the process of blurring the background whilst objects in the foreground stay in focus. This gives you that lovely soft focus textured look in the background.
We use texture to add depth and to engage your sense of touch. For example in our newborn sessions we often use warm, fluffy, thick blankets to snuggle the baby in. Yes this immediately adds an adorable reaction to the image, but once it’s up on your wall it also makes you want to reach out and touch it. You immediately imagine how it feels and will feel a certain way towards the image. It can also jog back a memory or take you back in time in your mind. It’s safe to say that we love texture!
You don’t just have to rely on your photographer to bring texture into your home, you can easily add texture to any room with certain skills and techniques.
Now you have the hints and tips on how to bring texture into your home, you might be wondering how you can incorporate this in your session with one of our photographers? When your photographer calls you for your fire-up call, mention it then. Tell them how you want to bring texture into your home and you’d like to blend it into your images. Our team are the experts and will advise you on what to bring.
If you’re thinking “I’ve already had my fire-up call, what do I do now?” again no worries… hit us up over on Pinterest and check out our Textures Mood Board, where you will find all kinds of examples and ideas on what to bring with you, outfits, accessories etc.
