We don’t normally shoot to a fixed number of images. Instead, we aim to shoot “enough” images to showcase each property and its features, without unnecessary redundancy.
We always start by shooting front and rear exteriors, the front door/entry, and at least one view of each room. So, unless it’s a “tiny house”, that’s a base shot list of about 8 images for a one-bedroom, one-bath; and 12+ for a 3-bed, 2-bath. However, we don’t stop there. If there are more rooms, we photograph them. (We generally skip closets, utility rooms, basements, and garages unless there’s something special about them.) If we see more than one good view of a room, we shoot those views. If there are special features and finishes, we photograph those. If the exterior has nice landscaping or views, we photograph those too. Larger properties usually have more rooms, more features, more up-scale finishes, and just more photo opportunities, so our price structure is linked to property size.
We normally photograph only the subject property itself. However, if the neighborhood is an important asset, you can request us to shoot additional views of the street, the subdivision entrance, community amenities, etc. You can also order additional photos for any listing to cover those situations where a property includes extras such as a pool house, gazebo, carriage house, barn, stable, or shop.
