So how does one "learn" good landscape lighting? It seems many don't know, including the landscape hackjobs around these parts.
There is this group:
http://www.aolponline.org/They can provide training, but quite frankly buy some fixtures and spend some time placing them and rearranging them around your own home at night can be as beneficial as anything. Also knowing how certain plants grow so you don't put an uplight behind a plant that will completely cover it when Spring comes is also very helpful.
Also, this is not one size fits all. What one homeowner may love, another will hate. So you need to really listen. I had one lady call me wanting X, but after talking to her, she decided she wanted Y.
