How to do Right Real Estate Photography? Tony Henrik Halttunen


Introduction Contracting a photographer is an overwhelming task. The photos they take could choose the number and bore of home buyers who will study your property. Keeping in mind the end goal to isolate the experts from the photographic trifler, you'll have to familiarize yourself with the accompanying terms and procedures.


Wide Angle Lens Using a wide-angle lens is key to photography for real estate since these lens captures more of a scene than a regular one. With a wide-angle lens, the real estate photographer is able to stand closer to the house without including undesirable objects in the closer view like utility poles or shrubbery. Be sure that your photographer uses this lens.


Elevation Make sure your real estate photographer expands the camera's elevation as these photos dependably look superior to anything shots taken from the beginning. Have them stand on your vehicle, ladder or any other apparatus that will securely add tallness to your photos.


Limit Walk through your property with your prospective photographers to find out how they mean to limit far-reaching carports, lanes and extensive carports, all of which take away from the main selling point - the house.


Three-Quarter Shots When looking through the photographers' portfolios, ensure you see many three quarter shots of homes. Pictures shot at a slight angle to the front of the home are normally much stronger than shots taken straight on. On a related note, real estate photographers must not use ultra-wide-angle lenses for front shots. Doing as such will misrepresent the point of view to a questionable level.


Daylight Ask the photographer to shoot pictures of your property several times during the day. You want to capture the morning, noon, and evening sunlight to find out which ones best compliment your home.


Barrel Distortion If your prospective real estate photographer uses a digital camera, be sure to ask him or her about barrel distortion. This happens when the wide-angle lens on a digital camera produces curved or skewed edges in the picture. Lines that you'd hope to seem opposite are most certainly not. Barrel distortion happens regularly when photographers take wide-angle shots of angular buildings, doors and edges of walls. A good photographer will know how to avoid making this costly mistake.


Numbers and Perspectives Ask your real estate photographer to shoot as many home entrances and perspectives as possible. For example, shoot the view from the inside, the side garden, the fishpond, and the potting shed all from a high angled view.


Jaggies Finally, ask your real estate photographer about the jaggies, which happen when lines of a building separate from a background, such as a roofline against a clear sky. Reducing the size of the image and using the antialiasing tool on a good photoeditor will usually make the jaggies disappear.


Conclusion And remember, photos of a property can represent the deciding moment your prosperity. Make sure the money you invest in real estate photography gets your property the interest, traffic, and deal you need and deserve.
