Photography at Casa Azul works best when your goal is storytelling, not volume.

Before shooting

Verify current camera policy.
Disable flash by default.
Use silent shutter when possible.

Composition ideas

Subject	Framing cue
Courtyard	Use symmetry and negative space
Kitchen details	Tight crop + color contrast
Studio objects	Eye-level perspective for context

Etiquette that matters

Do not block pathways.
Avoid long static poses in tight zones.
Keep voices low in contemplative rooms.

Respect creates better photos. Calm flow gives cleaner compositions.

Fast shot list

Wide exterior -> Medium courtyard -> Detail textures -> One narrative close-up -> Exit shot
