PHOTOMONTAGE
Photomontage combines your development's CGI with real-world imagery, seamlessly blending your project into its intended environment. This technique enhances realism in marketing materials, aiding planning applications and client presentations.
PHOTOMONTAGE FAQS
What is a photomontage?
A photomontage blends a 3D CGI of your development with a real-world site photograph to show exactly how the project will look in its actual setting.
​
How do I get started with a photomontage?
Provide us with high-resolution site photos and your architectural plans. We’ll integrate your design into the image with matching lighting and perspective.
​
What is the process?
We align the CGI model with your site photo, match environmental lighting and shadows, and apply materials. You’ll receive two rounds of amends for fine-tuning.
​
Is photomontage suitable for planning applications?
Yes, photomontages are commonly used in planning submissions to clearly show proposed developments in context.
​
What image quality do you need from me?
We need high resolution, well-lit photos with a clear line of sight of the proposed site. Smartphone images can work if taken carefully, but DSLR shots are preferred.
​
How long does it take?
Photomontages are typically completed within 3–4 working days, depending on complexity and required changes.
​
Can you enhance realism with landscaping or people?
Yes, we can add planting, pedestrians, vehicles, and other real-world elements to enhance realism and visual impact.
​
What files do I receive?
You’ll receive high-resolution JPEGs or PNGs suitable for print and digital use. Other formats are available on request.
​
Can you use drone photography?
Yes, if you provide drone images, we can match aerial CGIs for elevated views or wider site context.
​
How much does a photomontage cost?
Costs depend on image complexity, level of detail, and number of views. We’ll quote based on your project brief.
​
Do you have examples of Photomontage Projects?
Absolutely. You can explore a range of our work on the Portfolio page, including highlights like Trinity Place, Harlow House, and St Mary’s, each demonstrating different styles and approaches.
