Ready to elevate your real estate photography? Whether you’re a real estate agent, property manager, builder, or someone looking to capture stunning property shots, our latest how-to video is for you. Our co-founder and professional photographer Brad Filliponi shares his secrets for taking breathtaking exterior photos that appear as if captured at dusk—all with just your phone and our photo app SnapSnapSnap. Read on for tips and tricks to create eye-catching real estate images that stand out. 

1. Preparing Your Property for the Perfect Shot 

Before you even think about snapping a photo, make sure your property is photo-ready. Here's what you need to do: 

  • Close the Garage Door: A clean, closed garage door looks more polished. 
  • Clear the Driveway: Remove vehicles and any clutter to keep the focus on the property. 
  • Hide Unwanted Items: Things like shoes, garden hoses, and other items can distract from the property’s appeal. 
  • Open Curtains and Blinds: Letting natural light in makes the property look welcoming.

2. Capturing the Best Shots 

When it comes to shooting a property, keep these tips in mind: 

  • Shoot from Multiple Angles: Take several photos of both the front and rear of the property. More options mean better chances of getting the perfect shot. 
  • Avoid Solar Flares: If shooting during the day, use your hand to shield the sun from the lens, but be careful not to cover any part of the property. 
  • Use a Tripod if Available: A tripod helps avoid camera shake, especially for nighttime or dusk shots. If you don’t have one, handheld shots can still be effective with the right technique. 

3. Getting the Hero Shot 

The hero shot is the highlight of your listing that draws house hunters in. For most properties, this is taken at the rear, especially if there’s a pool or garden. Find the best shot of the property and snap away with SnapSnapSnap. Remember, a well-composed hero shot can make your listing stand out. 

4. Editing Your Photos for a Dusk Effect 

When the hero shot has been captured on SnapSnapSnap, editing is where the magic happens. Here’s how to transform your daylight shots into stunning dusk images using SnapSnapSnap and our Day to Dusk edit: 

  • Upload Your Photos: Click on the “Next” button in SnapSnapSnap and select the images you want to edit. 
  • Apply the Day to Dusk Edit: Choose the dusk effect from the options and review your images. 
  • Submit Your Job: After a quick review, submit your job. You’ll receive professionally edited photos within 24 hours.

5. Before and After: The Power of Editing
