How long does a typical photo session last?
A typical photo session lasts between 1 to 2 hours, depending on the size and complexity of the property. This allows us to capture high-quality images of both the interior and exterior, ensuring your property is showcased beautifully. For larger properties or additional services like 3D tours and drone photography, the session may take a bit longer.
How do I prepare my home for photos?
To prepare your home for real estate photos:
- Clear and clean all surfaces.
- Replace dim or burnt out light bulbs and turn on all lights.
- Open window treatments and clean windows.
- Remove unnecessary furniture and decorations.
- Clear appliances and counters of clutter.
- Make beds and remove personal items.
- Turn off all ceiling fans, TVs, and monitors.
- Remove personal photos if desired.
- Remove pets, crates, and food/water bowls.
- Tidy the yard and remove cars from the driveway.
- Hide garbage cans and lawn equipment.
We understand that getting your property ready for professional photos can be stressful and time-consuming — it’s no easy task. Our goal is to make the process as smooth as possible and capture your home looking its absolute best. For the best results, it’s ideal if the property owner and pets are not present, allowing us to showcase the property at its most open and appealing.
What happens if the weather is unfavorable on the day of an outdoor shoot?
If the weather isn’t ideal on the day of your outdoor real estate shoot, we have several options to ensure your property is showcased beautifully:
- Weather Adaptations: For overcast skies, we provide complimentary sky replacements to enhance the appearance of your property’s exterior. This allows us to ensure that your photos feature a vibrant and appealing sky, regardless of the weather conditions on the day of the shoot.
- Partial Coverage: If the weather impacts certain parts of the property, we can photograph the unaffected areas and return later to capture the exterior when conditions improve.
- Rescheduling: We can reschedule the shoot to a day with better weather conditions. We’ll work with you to find a new date that suits your schedule and provides the best conditions for capturing your property.
