We love the real estate
agents we work with. We respect how
hard they work - selling, negotiating,
and closing deals. The stress they
endure on a day to day basis is beyond
that of most jobs. So, no one said
they had to be great photographers
on top of all that.
Photography
is an art. One that is only
learned with tons of practice. For
real estate, you should avoid shooting
in auto mode. That means typical point
and shoot cameras without advanced
options (and optics) should be avoided.
One needs to be well versed in such
things as aperture, shutter speed,
and their relationship to one another.
Furthermore, it is important to understand
composition, white balance, ISO, and
other photography aspects to get the
best shots. All this doesn't even
scratch the surface of what can be
done in post production.
Sure, you can go to
a home and pull out an instant camera
but you need to remember one thing.
When it comes to real estate photography,
you are marketing the single most
expensive thing someone owns. Isn't
their investment worth more than the
camera that happened to come with
your cell phone?
Having said that,
we at AVT would like to show you some
of the photos we took at some recent
listings, and around Charlotte, NC:

We
took some test shots with a point
and shoot camera which is fairly indicative
of what many agents take their real
estate photos with. We wanted to show
you how a fairly nice point and shoot
stacked up to a more professional
DSLR camera with a good lens, proper lighting, and
advanced post production work.

So
you can see the importance of understanding
how to use light (and experience)
to your advantage when shooting
real estate photography. All too
often the sensor in the camera gets
confused by the light coming in
from outside resulting in what I
jokingly refer to as "nuclear
summer" photos.
It
is so important to show the beauty
of not only the room, but of the
view outside with so many expensive
water front, and golf front homes
in our area. Plus, it just makes
for better photos.
