Here's the before and after shots. The angle's a little different, but you can see the change. We think the tan shingles really warms everything, making the stone glow. We changed out the exterior lighting, too, and painted the streetlight pole brown.

The matching porchlight is pictured here. We didn't buy two lights for the porch. Instead, we hung a plaque over the other fixture box. I wish now that I'd bought an extra light to hang in place of the driveway fixture. At some point I'll spraypaint it brown to match the pole and other light fixtures.
