Wow! Just wow! I cannot say enough good things about Joe and Lite Visions! He installed our new front yard landscape lighting which needed replacing after the original became tired and worn. It is now fabulous! Joe’s artistic vision, service and the quality of the lights he uses are unsurpassed. His company is unique in that he offers so much more than “standard” landscape lighting. No cheap lights. No dotted “runway” looks. No hot spots. Joe knows his lighting and it shows. He took the time to show us a demo which was extremely helpful. We knew exactly what we were getting and how it would look at night! Installation was seamless and professional. We are looking forward to having him redo our back yard now too! Thanks Joe!
beautiful soft illumination by Lite Visions Landscape Lighting Raleigh NC
Less lumens is more when designing and creating ambiance and atmosphere with landscape lighting.
LED technology and internal control of dimming and lighting output has put a great tool into the hands of lighting designers.
Properly designed and installed outdoor landscape lighting not only increases your safety and security around your property,it also helps your emotional well being by helping you relax and enjoy your outdoor spaces as it creates a welcoming atmosphere.
As a lighting designer sometimes we sometimes must use more fixtures to properly illuminate an object ,think of a painting with many brushstrokes and that is how a good lighting designer accomplishes his task. This performed with very low lumens on the fixtures creates a magical nighttime space for you to relax and enjoy.
While there are other companies who install one fixture here and there with no rhyme or reason except they attended a short lighting seminar to increase profits.Our world is not one dimensional and no ones home or property should be lit up one sided.
Proper outdoor landscape lighting not only affects a person’s senses, but by creating a peaceful relaxing environment by using imagination and vision, helps the person to relax and enjoy their outdoor space into the evening hours.
Add concert quality audio and sit back and imagine the symphony playing in your own space with the relaxing outdoor illumination as you drink a glass of wine and forget about the days problems.
Contact us today to come home to a peaceful and relaxing custom designed outdoor space of your own.

I get a few phone calls weekly that start out like this,I have a 1-3 year old lighting system and it just doesn’t look like some I have seen. Can you stop by and take a look at it. They have just ok landscape lighting VS magical landscape lighting .Whomever installed their lighting gave them a very basic install and probably did not even come back to do a night time lighting focus. I usually set up a time to stop by and see what their outdoor landscape lighting looks like and setup a time to stop back another evening and do a nighttime demonstration of what their outdoor landscape lighting could look like. Coming from my many years of working on concert and theatrical lighting I see things in a very different perspective. I work to create depth,definition as well as layers to give a property a magical nighttime lighting effect. I actually have lighting vendors who have seen my work and send me samples of their products.
Lite Visions is not your typical cookie cutter outdoor landscape lighting designer,if you want your property to look like a resort oasis in the evening hours call us today.

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.
Lite Visions landscape lighting is an artistically based design company and we might take more time and perhaps a few visits to make certain to visualize all the options for each clients unique situation. We do this by choosing a few fixtures which we can control the lumen output on as well as the optics for each specific lighting need to turn your home and outdoor area’s into your own personal resort oasis. Contact us today and see why Lite Visions Landscape Lighting in Raleigh outshines the competition.
Lite Visions Landscape Lighting’s owner Joe comes from a concert and theatrical lighting background and will use a few of those lighting techniques to make your home and property into a night time resort oasis. Lite Visions landscape lighting uses only the best lighting fixtures and equipment available to the professional. Joe looks at things in a more artistic manner and lights things up as your eye sees them ,not flat and one sided as many people who install landscape lighting in the area seem to do ,we see quite a few bad lighting jobs driving out of neighborhoods in the evenings when leaving clients homes. Many installers seem to think more lumens is better on a lot of things they light and this is not usually the case with landscape lighting. Most times less lumens is more with a properly shielded lamp source to hide the light from view when walking past.

EXHIBITOR SPOTLIGHT: LITE VISIONS LANDSCAPE LIGHTING
Dec 23, 2019, 16:11 PM
We’re excited to announce that Lite Visions Landscape Lighting Inc is a sponsor of the 2020 Downtown Raleigh Home Show, happening January 24-26, 2020 at the Raleigh Convention Center. You can find this innovative landscape lighting company at booth #1132 at the show. Before you visit them, enjoy our brief interview with Joseph Yanulevich.
What are your best home or garden tips for this season?
Make sure if you hire an outdoor landscape lighting designer that they are not using cheap Chinese lighting fixtures or low-quality transformers that you yourself can buy online or at a big box store. I have replaced several of these lighting installations and some of the fixtures were falling apart.
What are your featured items this season? (sales, popular services, show specials, etc.)
The most popular item is our FREE annual maintenance contact, where we come out and re-adjust your lighting if needed as well as cleaning fixtures and checking timers. We also give a 3-year guarantee on our installations above and beyond any manufacturer warranty. No One else will give you that kind of guarantee.
What are your home or garden pet peeves?
Bad outdoor lighting, I recently did a beautiful new home in Hastentree in Wake Forest. The couple asked to drive thru the neighborhood and look at the lighting they liked. After riding thru and looking with them I can’t believe how many bad lighting designs we all saw. Lighting design is about proper knowledge of color temperature as well as beam spreads and wattage. There is nothing that looks worse than a beautiful crepe myrtle lit with a too-white light making it look unnatural. Also, wasting lighting on such trees as pine trees.
What is the strangest client request you’ve ever received?
Probably the email from a person requesting me to install a cheap Chinese fixture package that they bought themselves online.I would never do that because I have to stand behind my work for a long time. Lite Visions does not cut corners on installations or use inferior lighting equipment.
Any additional company info you’d like to include?
Lite Visions’ owner, Joe has over 35 years of experience as a lighting technician and lighting designer. Joe has worked with many bands and concert acts over the years from starting his career with local NC music favorites The Embers and Nantucket to working with Tim Mcgraw, and Alan Jackson.

. Here are a few outdoor landscape lighting techniques we use at Lite Visions Landscape Lighting for developing distinctive and functional designs to put your property in the best light when the sun sets.
Up Lighting Example
Up-Lighting – Offering a greater contrast effect than typical wall-washing with floodlights, Lighting fixtures are placed closer to a building for a bolder effect. The goal is to focus guest’s attention to the most beautiful or intriguing parts of your landscape. This may relate to the architectural features of your home or, features in the landscape such as trees, statues, or fountains.
Silhouetting – By placing a fixture behind the feature, aimed towards an adjacent wall, you can create an illuminated backdrop. This landscape lighting technique creates intrigue by using lighting to make interesting outlines or profiles of features. Similar to up-lighting, spotlights and well lights work best to create these dramatic shapes.
Shadowing – A similar technique to silhouetting, shadowing also places the fixture towards the base of the feature, aimed towards an adjacent wall. However, the goal is to create a softer shadow, and often works best with a tree that has open, delicate foliage. The effect of the tree’s movement in the wind is sure to add drama to any home facade. Spotlights, well lights, and floodlights can help you achieve this effect.
Moonlighting – Create moonlighting techniques by placing a downlight fixture with a full glare guard high up inside a tree and angled downwards. This effect looks like moonlight shining down through the branches. It causes attractive shadow patterns on the ground to appear, plus it provides a very natural and beautiful lighting effect. This effect works best with open-branched trees.
Downlighting – The down-lighting technique is similar to the moonlighting technique, although brighter and less subtle. Place a fixture high up, inside a feature like a trellis, tree, or eave, and cast downwards over a large area. Place the light higher if you intend to illuminate a large portion of the yard, and lower if you wish to illuminate a path or garden.

Getting a professional outdoor landscape lighting design is better than doing it yourself for a several important reasons. Of course, as a landscape lighting company we may seem a bit biased. But Lite Visions is extremely proud of the work we do here, and we love it! So we put together a few benefits our customers love from our lighting services. We hope you enjoy!
SAVINGS
You save a few different things by hiring Lite Visions for your professional landscape lighting. The first thing you save is money. We know, that sounds crazy. Most of the time when you buy lights yourself you do not get the best quality lights that last. So you wind up spending more money on replacing them when with us you would never spend money on light replacements. Gotta love our warranty! Improper setup of your lights can also cause them to not last as long.
Time is another factor. Landscape lighting is a project. It’s not like buying a new tire for your car, which some people still outsource. Unless you happen to have experience in this field you are going to have to do research to figure out how to set everything up. How hard could it be? Well, there are some things you need to know about wiring like how much for different lights voltage drop etc. You’ll need to know how big of a transformer to buy in order to power all your lights as well as how to check amps and wiring loads. We could go on, but the point is you save a lot of time by hiring Lite Visions landscape lighting company, and you actually get to enjoy the experience of lighting your beautiful home and property.
The last thing you save on is tiresome rearranging of your lights. Lite visions is a professional landscape lighting designer. That means we figure out exactly what you want, give you our advice on opportunities we see at your home, and execute so you never have to worry about it again. You won’t want to rearrange your lights as much, because you’ll know Lite visions got it right the first time.
QUALITY
Professional outdoor landscape lighting is Lite visions business. It is what we do. When you work with us, you get the best quality landscape lighting products and designs for your home. We know what works and what does not work. Our designer may have ideas after seeing your home that you haven’t even thought of yet. We have done this at a lot of homes,even with an architect’s drawing, so we seldom run into situations that we have not already seen before.
PROPERTY VALUE
In addition to improving how your home looks, it also increases your property value . The obvious one is that it will help you sell your home if that time ever comes. The second reason is that people will think your home looks much better if it has professional outdoor landscape lighting. So, not only is your home more valuable after a professional outdoor lighting job, but its curb appeal also shines.
GET WHAT YOU WANT
Have you ever tried to put something together and it didn’t quite look right? That’s how things sometimes turn out when you do landscape lighting yourself. Why is that? We believe it is because there is an art to what we do. We paint your landscape with light. There is also a science to it. Like we said before, we have done this before and we know what works and what doesn’t. When you sign up with us, we work with you to find out exactly what you are looking for and make sure you get exactly what you want. That’s part of what makes Lite Visions professional outdoor landscape lighting professional.
I recently courtesy of my friend google, met the nicest young couple who have built a beautiful new home in our area. After speaking on the phone and setting up an appointment to meet one evening, we got in the car and at their request drove the the neighborhood of million plus homes to look at examples of good and not so good outdoor landscape lighting. With it being so close to Christmas I have to say I got to see some beautiful homes lit very nicely from some of the holiday lighting companies. My new friends evidently already had the local neighborhood handyman sprinkler installer who also does lights approach them and after viewing his work ,they decided they needed to call a actual outdoor landscape lighting designer. They talked about the too white ugly lights on a few homes where it seemed someone bought lights with whatever lamps they came with and stuck them under windows and created a nice horror movie look,spooky as the wife said. After our drive,I pulled out the battery pack and a few lights and with the husband walked around and looked at a few effects, we signed a contract that evening for their install and even ended up adding extra lights and will be doing more in several stages as the front is finished and the next phase in the back begins.I feel like we were brought together by a force bigger than us both and I am so fortunate to get to do what I love and enjoy for yet another beautiful home. Happy Holidays from Lite Visions.
