Tips For Taking Real Estate Photography FL Professionals Have For Home Sellers

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.

Using a wide angle lens and high dynamic range photography will make your photos pop and blow away the competition. A wide angle lens obviously gives you wider shots, but it also gives the pictures you take a lot more depth and detail that without it. High dynamic range photographs are multiple shots of the same subject using different levels of exposure. The multiple photos are then combined into one photo. This will maximize the color and give you detail like nothing else.

Houses look their best in natural light. You don't need professional flash equipment to take these photos, but you will need a tripod. If you try to take the picture without it, the image is going to be dark and blurred. With a tripod, you can slow the shutter speed, which will give you the natural light you want and a crisp image as well.

Interior pictures are much more effective when they include furnishings. Buyers can't get a sense of scale or what a room has actually been used for if it's empty. All they get are walls, ceilings, and floors.

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 are something buyers want to see. 3-D virtual tours are especially popular. This is the most effective way for potential purchasers to get an idea of what your home looks like without actually scheduling a personal walk through. You should definitely make use of social media. Posting your virtual tour on different social media is a great way to get free advertising and expose your home to a wide variety of potential buyers.

One of the biggest mistakes amateur photographers make is taking too many vertical pictures. The human eye is used to seeing everything in a ratio of four to three or sixteen to nine. This means landscape photos are much easier for buyers to relate to and appreciate. If you're taking pictures on your cell phone, be sure to keep this in mind.

The main focus of your pictures should be your home's selling points. If your house has an open floor plan, high ceilings, and a gourmet kitchen you need to emphasize these features when you are taking pictures. Buyers are brought in by amenities like top of the line kitchen appliances, pools, and attached garages.
