Using just your phone and a few simple tips, you can transform empty rooms into beautifully staged spaces. Watch our latest video to get tips from our co-founder and professional photographer, Brad! He recommends the following setup and steps for virtually staging a home using your iPhone and the SnapSnapSnap app. 

With SnapSnapSnap and professional editing, you can achieve these stunning results with your phone.

Recommended Setup:

  • iPhone 11 or later for high-quality photos due to the wide-angle lens. 
  • Tripod (Brad recommends the Manfrotto Compact Action Tripod). 
  • Have the app SnapSnapSnap installed on your phone. 

Preparing a Home for a Shoot: 

  • Turn on all lights to brighten the space. 
  • Open all doors to create an inviting feel. 
  • Adjust windows to align frames and minimize distractions. 
  • Slightly lower blinds if neighboring houses are visible.

Tips for Shooting Empty Rooms: 

  • Place your phone on the tripod at eye level for the best angle. 
  • Use a zoom level of .6x, or .5x for smaller rooms or tight spaces. 
  • Capture the entire room, combining areas like the kitchen, dining, and living rooms if they're open concept. 
  • When photographing bedrooms, shoot from the doorway for the most appealing view.
