Store description
Know exactly when the sun will light the façade, before you book the shoot.
LightPlan shows where the sun will be and where the shadows will fall at any address, on any date, at any time. Find the building, slide the timeline, and see the light. That's it.
Made for real estate and architecture photographers who would rather be shooting than learning an app.
BOOK THE RIGHT HOUR, NOT A GUESS
Your client wants the front elevation in full sun and the lobby glass without glare. Drop a pin on the property, scrub through the day and watch the sun swing across the building. You'll know which morning or afternoon gives you the light you need, and you can give the agent a time with confidence.
SEE THE SHADOWS BEFORE THEY RUIN THE SHOT
Neighbouring towers, trees and parking structures cast shadows you only discover on site. LightPlan's 3D shadow map shows how shadows move across the property through the day, so you can avoid the hour when half the façade goes dark.
SCOUT WITHOUT DRIVING THERE
Photorealistic 3D maps let you look at the building from the street or from above, the way your camera or drone will see it. Work out your angles at your desk and arrive knowing exactly where to set up.
NAIL THE TWILIGHT EXTERIOR
Twilight shoots are won or lost in a few minutes. LightPlan gives you sunset, golden hour, blue hour and twilight times for the exact location, so you're set up and lit before the sky turns.
SHARE THE PLAN, SKIP THE BACK-AND-FORTH
Send the agent, architect or your second shooter a link to the exact place, time and view. It opens in LightPlan or in any web browser, so nobody needs the app to see the plan.
SIMPLE BY DESIGN
No dashboards. Nothing to set up. One clean map and one timeline. If you can use Maps, you can use LightPlan, and you'll have your answer in seconds.
ON EVERY DEVICE YOU WORK FROM
Plan on your Mac at the office, walk the client through it on iPad, and check it on your iPhone on site. Saved locations sync through iCloud.
Stop guessing at the light. Plan it.
