Arrive about 30 minutes before sunset. Take some test shots to determine the right angles. Go inside for interior shots (turn on ALL the lights in the house and leave them on for the exterior shots) After sunset, turn on ALL exterior lights and set back up for the exterior shot you determined earlier.
