Working with shadows and light to create unique art

Creating art and shadows and light to create unique art makes a true lighting designer. I work in many subdivisions and drive out in the late evenings after doing a nighttime adjustment of a landscape lighting system I just installed and I see many BAD lighting jobs.

So many people who install outdoor landscape lighting are not lighting designers but instead fixture salespeople who do not understand certain objects should not be lit flat with just one light.Your eyes see things in the daytime with the sun coming thru them and creating shadows on the ground and on your home and other objects.

You see things in 3d,not flat. I understand that and design your lighting system to make things beautiful and to create works of art at night with your lighting and property. Some of the photos below are examples of that. Call us Today to see your home and property in a whole new light.

Lite Visions,we do one thing and do it right. When Lite Visions Landscape Lighting’s owner Joe decided to go from lighting up the stars to lighting under the stars in Raleigh NC ,he knew lighting would be his only focus.

As a former lighting designer and lighting technician for bands since he turned 18, Joe searched out the best professional grade landscape lighting fixtures to install at his clients homes and gardens.

I wanted to give my clients the best possible value for their money. Landscape lighting, when designed properly has the ability to change and enhance your outdoor landscaping completely.

Outdoor Patio Lighting Raleigh NC

Photos of the lower patio area with brick columns before outdoor lighting.

Night time demo with only 2 different lighting fixtures to demonstrate how the architectural lighting would work and create 3 distinct lighting effects.

Yes that’s right

3 separate architectural lighting effects, by mounting the lights as high as possible on the columns resulting in an accent effect on the architecture of the brick column.

You also get a nice soft pool of light on the concrete patio area below the column.

The soft pool of light on the concrete reflects itself back up onto the soffits and ceiling panels above to give you a beautiful soft light effect all over the patio area.

This also created some much need security lighting around the back patio area under the homes lower level.

Now isn’t this a much nicer soft lighting effect than a security flood light or spotlight blinding you out on the patio? Enjoy your outdoor patio area in the evening hours with Lite Visions Landscape Lighting’s expert help.

Why I love outdoor lighting

Posted on May 31, 2019May 31, 2019 by admin in Landscape Lighting

Back in 2001 when I was on tour with the rock group 3 Doors Down,I was talking to a fellow passenger on a flight who happened to be a rep for an outdoor lighting company. We were talking about what we both did and after inviting him to see our upcoming concert at San Diego State University he invited me to visit and tour their factory.I did and met people who are still friends to this day. I thought I would be interested in outdoor lighting later on in life as a way to not tour 10 months of the year.

I love Outdoor lighting design due to the fact that no two jobs are ever alike.In one week I might go from lighting only a walkway into a home for safety purposes to lighting up a few specimen trees to creating a resort style look for a beautifully landscaped backyard area. LED lighting has made it possible to paint the landscape with many different looks.

From helping create a distinctive look for a business using colored lighting to helping design and install an outdoor tree adventure park to creating a serene evening enviroment for a lakeside outdoor custom kitchen complete with hottub and firepit.

I love being creative and always have been a creative person with a huge imagination. This is a photo from 1979 of Raleigh beach music band the Embers who I was a roadie and operated the lighting for. I am actually in the photo behind the group with a co2 fire extinguisher. I took a few of our stage lights into the studio that day and with the photographer we helped create what is to this day one of the bands favorite photos. The first band I worked with who allowed me to be creative.

We started talking with Tree Runner Adventure Park in Raleigh last year about a energy efficent low voltage LED outdoor lighting system to replace the rope lighting they had been using to have the park open at night. Here is a look at some of zone 1 of three zones we are lighting in the park so they can climb at night. This low voltage lighting is a combination of different lamps and fixtures along with colors. We are working in conjunction with the parks climbers who are installing the lighting that we specified and are consulting with the design along with installation and night focusing.
