Hand Crafted Lighting are a work of art

We are passionate about lighting and believe that lighting is an art form of both light and shadows. One of our favorite light fixtures we install are these hand craft works of art.  They are an art piece during the day when not lit and they just become magical at night when lit up.  They cast these amazing shadows while also lighting up an area.

Post Holiday Blues

Are you suffering from the Post Holiday Blues?  It is hard to get back into the regular routine after enjoying down time with family and friends.  On top of that, as you take down the holiday lights and decor, the house feels like it is missing something. I think the worst part is the outdoor holiday displays coming down making the house feel really dark.

Never leave the lights on again!

Is there a room in your house where the lights are always being left on?  By replacing your current light switch with an occupancy sensor switch, you will never leave the lights on again! An occupancy sensor will automatically turn on the lights when you enter a room and it will turn them off once you leave.   Not only is it convenient but it

Project Spotlight: Pool Envy

Even though it is cold outside, we can still dream about our hot summers and jumping back into the pool this upcoming summer.  A recent outdoor lighting project left us with a case of pool envy! The LED lighting installed highlighted the features of the pool including the lush landscaping, the rock formations and the amazing waterfall. In addition to the great pool, this property

“Do or Do Not. There is no try”

In anticipation of the release of the new Star Wars movie this weekend, we lead this post with one of our favorite quotes from Yoda, "Do or do not.  There is no try".  This quote is relevant to the way we conduct our business.  Here at Landscape Lighting Guru, we will do what we say we will do.  The following is a client testimonial from a

Come out of the Dark

As we have posted about recently, we are currently experiencing the time of the year with the shortest period of daylight.  Last week we experienced the earliest sunset around 5:30pm and in a few weeks we will have a day with the shortest amount of daylight for the year with only ~10 hours of daylight. But all that darkness doesn't mean you have to hibernate

The first piece of the puzzle is properly lighting the room.  There
