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
Artist,Definition :Someone who has creative skills and is able to see and create things others can not even imagine could be there.Weather on a stage setting or on a beautiful property or a homes architectural features. As an artist who patients with illumination,I look at the big picture of creating a painting with light that can be viewed from different angles as well as from inside looking out the window.

Less lumens is usually more with landscape lighting
Sometimes it’s hard to convince a person more than one light fixture per object might be needed to create the magic. They only know what they have seen prior, weather it was right or wrong.
Imagine telling an artist painting a beautiful photo to use less colors or brushstrokes.
Thankfully most of our clients understand what we do and usually give us free reign to create our art with illumination.
Using more fixtures on a tree or other object gives us the artistic freedom to properly illuminate it from all sides and create a lower lumen level and equally allow it to be viewed 3 dimensional, not just one sided.
The world is not flat and neither should your landscape lighting be flat and one sided.
See our google reviews and photos to see what makes us different, with over 30 years in the concert and theatrical lighting world.
At Lite Visions Landscape Lighting ,We understand lighting design.

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.

There are many old halogen systems that are in need of a landscape lighting led retrofit. A lot of these outdoor lighting systems are in dire need of maintenance from having the wrong color temperature bulbs that either the homeowner or someone else installed to just some of the lights not working at all to the lights are just falling apart or have bad/old wiring to the plant material being 3 times larger and way outgrown the original lighting plan. I see this in the evenings when I ride thru some of the older neighborhoods like Wakefield, Bedford,Weston,Preston when leaving a new outdoor lighting installation and driving the the neighborhoods at night. These things happened over a long time due to either poor maintenance or lack of any maintenance. Maintenance on the outdoor landscape lighting would have included re-positioning lights as plants grew along with cleaning fixtures and checking lights and timers bi annually to keep your outdoor landscape lighting looking like new always. Contact Lite Visions today to get your old outdoor lighting system looking like new once again.
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.

Vision is more powerful than history,In meeting with a client with a beautiful home yesterday I found this out. I receive many calls in relation to taking out old landscape lighting systems. Potential clients only know what they have seen done when they have an old lighting system that they have looked at daily in the evening for many years.
My job as a lighting designer is to talk about my unique vision for their project. After walking the property with my potential client and explaining why having a bunch of pathlight fixtures lighting the edges of their beautiful water feature with several places where water falls was probably not the best way to illuminate it. I then talked about the kit lights shooting across the pond and replacing them with lights under the falling water stones to highlight each area to create a much different effect on the three falls.
We looked at also creating a backdrop behind the water feature, creating reflections in the water feature from the uplit plants and removing even more pathlights along a beautiful stone ledge wall to accent the architectural features properly. I then asked my potential client to turn around and imagine looking out those large windows of the home at the picture we just talked about creating in the background and how nice it would be in the evenings . A lighting designers job is to create a 3 dimensional picture for the potential client to enjoy their space in the evening hours.

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.

What do concert and stage lighting have in common with outdoor landscape lighting?

Lite Visions Landscape Lighting, 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 concert and stage lighting designer and lighting technician for bands since he turned 18, Lite Visions Landscape Lighting’s owner Joe searched out the best professional grade landscape lighting fixtures as well as cables and connect methods to install at his client’s homes and gardens. Joe also had many lighting vendors reach out to him due to his concert and stage lighting background and found only a handful of these companies who would stand up to his testing in the field.
I wanted to give my clients the best possible value for their money. Outdoor Landscape lighting, when designed properly has the ability to change and enhance your outdoor landscaping and homes architecture completely in the evening hours. While there are many people who do numerous things and claim they can install landscape lighting, we too often drive thru these areas in the evening and see the many poor lighting installs with no real lighting design involved, many times we are called in a year or so later to FIX others poor lighting installs.
Joe also sided up with a few mentors he found in the landscape lighting industry and chose to pick their brains in landscape lighting, from one mentor who traveled to Italy to work with the Designer Valentino on his estate to another who worked with several celebrity clients to make their property into a beautiful evening showcase. Joe also works with a few manufactures every year on a continuing education in the landscape lighting industry, helping give back to others in lighting industry.
