The James Part 2: Capturing the Nighttime Magic of Long Island's Parisian Escape | Long Island Restaurant Photography
As promised, we are back with part two of our series showcasing The James, a beautiful new restaurant on Long Island. Previously, I brought you stunning daytime shots, highlighting the chic Parisian ambiance crafted by Beth Donner Design. Today, I delve into the enchanting nighttime vibe of this elegant establishment, capturing its warm, inviting glow and sophisticated atmosphere after dark.
The James, located in the historic former "Carriage House" in Babylon, transforms into a cozy, intimate haven as night falls. The exterior, with its dark tones and classic brick, is illuminated by soft, ambient lighting, creating a welcoming entrance that beckons diners inside. The magic continues within, where the lighting design adds a new dimension to the space. The bar area, a centerpiece of the restaurant, shines with a warm, golden hue, making it the perfect spot for a nightcap or a casual gathering.
The dining areas are equally captivating, with the soft lighting accentuating the elegant décor and creating an intimate dining experience. The thoughtful design elements, from the vintage-inspired light fixtures to the carefully curated artwork, come alive in the evening, offering a perfect blend of sophistication and comfort. The James at night is not just a place to dine; it's a place to unwind and enjoy a truly memorable experience.
This nighttime shoot highlights the versatility and charm of The James, showing that whether you're there for a leisurely lunch or a romantic dinner, the ambiance is always inviting and chic. Stay tuned as I continue to explore more amazing spaces and stories through my lens!
