Residential and Commercial Real Estate Photographs
Photographing both interior and exterior areas on location.
Above are photos of homes and public places featuring the architecture, location, and the time of day. Photographing a room generally requires a flash, or stage lighting to emphasize the natural colors in each area. It is important that the lighting look natural both inside the house as well as the view out the windows. Unless there is an unsightly view from the windows, the viewer should see all of the surrounding areas like you would in person.
HDR PHOTOS - Stands for High Dynamic Range, and a HDR photo is really just two (or three, or up to nine) photos taken at different exposure levels and then combined together with software to create a better high quality photograph. I generally do HDR photos with all Real Estate photography.
WIDE ANGLE - A wide angle lens allows more of the scene to be included in a photo. This is useful in architectural, interior and landscape photography where the photographer may not be able to move farther from the scene or area to photograph. These lens may sometimes cause a distortion or bulged area in the photo. The distortion can be corrected with photo editing software, and that is part of my service.
VIDEO CLIPS - Video file categories can included a wide range of video formats, which use different codecs to encode and compress video data. I typically make WMV files so they can be easily loaded onto websites, and .mp4 files for mobile devices. High Definition videos are also available but are usually rather large files that can take a while to load onto web sites, but are excellent for presentations and used as DVD's. If you require a video, this service is available.

Below is a video of a residence in south Tampa with interior and exterior shots. The video was intended to show the house for rental purposes to be used by a rental agency.
Corrected angles and exposure settings examples below.................
Many photos of properties that are published in web sites or in print are either too dark or too light, or the photo is poorly cropped like the examples below. Adjustments with the exposure settings or additional lighting can be added to bring an area to life. The after photo examples were retaken, and adjusted with the correct exposure settings. Being able to see outside of the window is what an HDR photo will do for an interior shot as seen by the examples below.

Incorrect exposure and angle: Both images on the left are cut off and the colors are dull & dark with very little detail showing.
|
Correct exposure and angle: The photos on the right are properly lit and cropped to provide more information, better color and detail.
