Strategies For Taking Great Real Estate Photography FL Pros Use Themselves

By Kenneth Thompson


You won't get the highest possible price for your home without showing potential buyers great pictures of it. The better your photographs the more likely you are to get phone calls, texts, and emails from prospects who want to tour your home. For that you're going to need some good equipment, a house that is immaculate inside and out, photos that interest buyers, and tips for taking real estate photography FL professionals are offering home sellers.

If you want your photos to stand out from your competition, you should use HDR photography and a wide angle lens. You would assume that wide angle lens give a wider shot, but you may not know they also give pictures more details and depth. HDR photographs are those taken of subjects multiple times using several different exposures. The photos are then combined into one with colors and detail you won't get without using this technique.

Natural lighting will show your house better than anything else. Professional flash equipment is not necessary to get great pictures in natural light, but a tripod is. You're going to get dark, blurred pictures if you try to do this without it. Using a tripod allows you to slow your shutter speed, giving you the natural light you envisioned and a crisp image.

Your interior photos will be much more effective with furnishings. Pictures without furniture can't give potential purchasers any sense of scale or whether the rooms are bedrooms, living areas, or dining areas. Walls, ceilings, and floors are all they see.

Furnishings help you create a feel for the size of a room and what it's used for as well as adding light and shadow to the image. You don't want to make the mistake of over furnishing though. Once you have the basics in the photo, stop decorating.

Virtual tours have become the norm. Many of these are 3-D. Buyers like this feature because it gives them a chance to view the house in a way that was only possible by actually going to the house and physically walking through it. You should not miss the opportunity to post your virtual tour on all the social media sites where you have a presence. Not only is it free advertising, it exposes your home to a wide range of potential buyers.

Amateur photographers make a mistake when they post too many vertical photos. Human eyes are accustomed to viewing the world at a ratio of 4:3 and 9:16. Because of this horizontal pictures are easier for people to understand. They are also more attractive to the people looking at them. If you're using your cell phone to take photos, keep this in mind.

The focus of your pictures should be on the selling points. If your house is full of windows, coffered ceilings, and has an open floor plan for instance, that's what you want to emphasize in the photos. Features like a state of the art kitchen and inground pool will get your phone ringing.
