Hearth and Halo: Brightening Natural Moonlight Home, Every Night

At Hearth and Halo, we love helping Erie and Niagara County homeowners enjoy their outdoor spaces well after sunset. Our specialty is moonlighting—a landscape lighting technique that mimics the look and feel of real moonlight streaming down through the trees. We install high-mounted, weatherproof fixtures in your property’s trees, gutters, or dormers to deliver a gentle, enchanting glow across patios, lawns, entryways, and gardens. The result is a naturally beautiful, safe, and usable yard for relaxing or entertaining, any night of the year.

What Is Moonlighting? How Hearth and Halo Creates It

The Hearth and Halo Moonlighting Difference

Moonlighting is an art—one we take pride in perfecting. We achieve the effect by mounting LED downlights high in mature trees (15–30 feet), on dormers, or under eaves. Our weatherproof fixtures are set to cast light downward through branches or over structures, washing your property with a soft, dappled glow that truly feels like natural moonlight.


Here’s how Hearth and Halo deliver seamless moonlighting:

  • Discreet, Gentle Fixtures: Our lights are hidden among leaves or attached to structures with gentle hardware. Wiring is carefully secured using soft straps or weatherproof conduit—never damaging trees or your home.
  • Custom Aiming & Beam Spread: Fixtures are angled to softly illuminate patios, lawns, and paths while creating shadow play on the ground for atmosphere.
  • Premium Materials: Hearth and Halo exclusively use brass or powder-coated aluminum, and advanced LED technologies chosen for performance in Erie and Niagara’s tough weather.
  • Safety & Codes: We follow all local safety codes and best practices—let us know if you have a homeowners’ association or community requirement for us to reference.


This spring, Hearth and Halo transformed a Williamsville family’s backyard into a magical nighttime escape. By mounting downlights high in their oak trees and above their patio, we gave them a softly glowing outdoor space—perfect for family dinners, relaxing, or simply enjoying the stars in comfort.

F&Q for Moonlighting | Hearth & Halo

  • Can uplighting fixtures be adjusted as my landscaping changes over time?

    Yes, the fixtures we install can be repositioned or re-angled to account for plant growth or new landscaping features. We recommend occasional check-ins, which are part of our ongoing maintenance service.

  • What happens if snow or ice covers the uplighting during winter?

    Our fixtures are designed to withstand Western NY winters, including snow and ice. If a fixture becomes buried or blocked, our maintenance team will clear and check it as part of our regular service calls.

  • Is it possible to upgrade my system’s brightness or color temperature in the future?

    Absolutely. All our LED fixtures are compatible with color temperature adjustments and can be upgraded for brightness if your needs change—even after the initial installation.

  • How quickly can repairs or maintenance be performed under the leasing policy?

    We pride ourselves on quick response—most repairs or on-site service calls are handled within a few business days. Just contact us, and our local team will be dispatched as soon as possible.
