It’s Simple, Quick And Convenient
If you have 15 minutes and a late model smartphone with a wide-angle lens then you can give your property marketing a big boost.
- Grab your smartphone and shoot your property listing using Brad’s tips - for best results, use an iPhone 11 or later or alternatively a Samsung S10 or later.

Use Day To Dusk To Generate More Inquiries
For maximum impact on your marketing, Brad recommends using Image Enhancement on your photos and adding a Day to Dusk edit to your hero image. Day to Dusk has been shown to attract up to 400% more clicks on your listing - so for US$4 it’s a no-brainer. The more interest you generate the faster you will find a tenant.

Brad’s Top Tips For Shooting Real Estate:
- Wipe down your lens before you start shooting
- Prepare the space and ensure it’s neat and tidy
- Turn on all interior lights
- Turn off fans
- Always shoot landscape (never portrait)
- Position yourself in the corner of a room to capture as much of the space as possible
- Shoot at eye-level with a steady hand
- Take a second shot for safety
- When shooting interiors, it’s usually best to click on the windows to expose the outside before taking your shot
- Don’t worry about your reflection when shooting the bathroom - we’ll edit it out with our Image Enhancement service.
- Edit every image to create a clean, crisp and seamless array of photos
- Enhance your hero shot with a Day to Dusk edit
