2. Harness the Power of Aerial Photos
Aerial views provide a unique perspective and showcase the property's surroundings, such as nearby amenities and lot size.
3. Turn All Lights On
Turn on all lights including ceiling lights and lamps, to brighten up your shots. Lighting plays a crucial role in highlighting the property's features and creating an inviting atmosphere.
4. Embrace Virtual Tours
Virtual tours offer potential buyers an immersive experience, allowing them to explore the property from the comfort of their own home. Utilize a 360° camera to capture the photos for an engaging virtual tour.
5. Open All Doors for Welcoming Shots
Open all doors to create a sense of space and flow in your photos.
6. Include a Floor Plan
Buyers value the visual layout of a property, so ensure your listing includes a professional Floor Plan to provide a comprehensive view of the space.
7. Enhance Your Hero Image
Make every buyer or renter’s first impression of your property count by capturing a stunning dusk shot that grabs attention and entices them to explore further.
8. Turn Off Ceiling Fans
Turn off all ceiling fans before shooting to ensure the clarity and professionalism of your images.
9 . Manage Sunlight in Exterior Shots
