andrew jay mayon: More Melissa Marro magic....some B&A photos - 07/21/10 06:14 AM
Hey Gang:
Well, this has been a LONG time coming, I actually shot these projects for the über-talented Melissa Marro of First Impressions back in May, and I am just now getting around to posting them.
If you have not had the opportunity to meet, work, or learn with Melissa, you are missing out.  My wife Sylvia, joined me on this trip, and I swear she and Melissa could have headed out for shopping and cocktails like they knew each other since middle school.  Melissa does offer a lot of great workshops and seminars, and I am sure any one of them … (16 comments)

andrew jay mayon: Before & After - 4 Chicks And A Dude... - 04/24/10 09:17 AM
Hey Gang:
I present to you, the Four Horse(wo)men of Triad Home Staging!
Recently, Chrissie Sutherland, Kim Lee, Lori Nicholson and Angele Carlson got together on a joint project to stage a vacant home that is being shown in the Greensboro Parade of Homes.  If you recall, I featured rookie stagers Lori and Angele in previous posts.  Well, here is when serious talent puts their heads together to "Git R Done."
Chrissie was kind enough to provide me with Before shots and has allowed me to use them in this presentation.
Enjoy!

andrew jay mayon: NEW Stager "Before" and "Afters" - Introducing Lori Nicholson - 04/07/10 12:00 AM
Hmm, y'all must be onto something here because I have had my third new Home Stager in a month contact me for photographs.  I am pleased to introduce Lori Nicholson and her company, "Stylishly Staged Home Staging" out of Lexington, NC (GREAT BBQ there by the way!).  Lori met me through an ASHSR meeting chaired by Chrissie Sutherland (my second wife) of Ready, Set, Stage.
Lori retained my services for a vacant stage project she did for a lovely home in Winston-Salem.  With her permission, she gave me some of her before images so I could share with you what she … (21 comments)

andrew jay mayon: Say GOODBYE to a BORING Facebook Fan Page Profile Pic!!!! - 03/16/10 03:02 PM
Hey Gang:
"Image is EVERYTHING."
As an owner of a visually driven business, I understand how critical it is to have things that just WOW potential clients and present you and your business as being very serious in what you do.  Since Facebook has become such an integral part of many business models, particularly as a marketing vehicle, why would you fall short in promoting your business there?
I have seen many fan pages that are great in content, but don't have something to really WOW a Fan, and show them how creative and outstanding you are at what you do.  Until now!!
Don't … (27 comments)

andrew jay mayon: Cropping - 1 Photo, 3 Different Looks (Sunrise - Folly Beach Pier, Charleston, SC) - 03/15/10 04:18 PM
One of my favorite tools as a photographer is the cropping tool.  This allows me to be creative in many different ways and, it allows me the opportunity to rethink images after I am back in the studio and can really see what I have captured.  Here is a case in point.
Recently, I was retained to photograph two houses on the exclusive Seabrook Island as well as an oceanfront penthouse condo on Folly Beach near Charleston, SC.  The morning of my departure I was up at sunrise and captured this image of the pier at Folly Beach:

Now, there … (21 comments)

andrew jay mayon: Melissa Marro Trifecta is Complete!!! - 03/13/10 12:34 PM
Hey Gang:
Well, here it is, home number three from my weekend working for Melissa Marro of First Impressions and WeStageSC.com.  Overall, I believe the project was a huge success for both of us as I am already getting inquiries for more work down there, and I am sure, by extension Melissa will have her plate full in the near future.
So, I present Act III of the Marro/Mayon Project:

Hey Gang:
Here is part two of my three-part project with Melissa Marro.  Again, just a textbook stage!  The REALTOR hired a "professional" to do their photos, and here is a link to look at those photos in a new browser window:

andrew jay mayon: CATFIGHT!!!!! Charleston (Melissa Marro) vs. Atlanta (Kathy Nielsen) - 03/04/10 09:40 AM
Hey Gang:
For those of you who have been following my posts for the past year, you may have caught onto a little friendly "rivalry" between Melissa Marro and Kathy Nielsen regarding relocating me from Greensboro, NC to either Charleston, SC or Atlanta, GA, respectively.   Well, while I have no plans to move from Greensboro to either spot (too South for me), the gauntlet has been thrown down!
I am very excited to announce that my photography services have been retained by ONE of these two amazing Home Stagers.  I will be shooting three properties this weekend, and will be posting those images sometime next week. So … (14 comments)

andrew jay mayon: First-Time Home Stager - Part 1 - 02/23/10 11:34 PM
Hey Gang:
I completed a project about a week ago for a woman who just became a certified Home Stager.  Her family is selling their home to move to Raleigh, so this was her very first stage.  Here are some of my photos, and if you would like to give some constructive feedback, I am sure she would appreciate it.
 







So, there you have it.  How did she do?  What suggestions would you make?  Is there anything yo would have done differently?

andrew jay mayon: Dogs & Snow, A WONDERFUL Combo! Greensboro, NC Snow Storm... - 12/22/09 12:36 AM
Recently, Greensboro, NC was hit with a nice pre-Christmas snow storm.  This is an unusual occurance this early in Winter, especially this close to Christmas.  Nonetheless, it was a wonderful way to really get into the holiday spirit.
Since snow is such a treat in our little neck of the woods, my dogs Kona and Zeus really enjoyed the opportunity to play in...
Zeus enjoying the moment... 
Kona not quite sure what to make of the snow...

andrew jay mayon: DIGGING My New FULL SCREEN Slideshows!! - 12/10/09 04:29 AM
Because I am in such a visual business, I believe it is critical that the images I provide my clients really WOW their potential clients.  One of the problems with the MLS/MLX is that the images are always small and underwhelming.
If you are fortunate enough to be able to have external links from the MLS/MLX to a third party slideshow program, then you are better off than those that can't.  Luckily for me, the Triad MLX allows for such links, so I am able to provide my REALTORS virtual tour/slideshows that are FULL SCREEN.  Now THAT can give some serious … (10 comments)

andrew jay mayon: Are You Maximizing Your Facebook Real Estate?? - 11/19/09 10:03 AM
Hello Rainmakers:
If you are like most Social Networking savvy businesses, you are involved on Facebook, Twitter, blogging, etc.  How many of you that are on Facebook knew that you could maximize your profile image to 200 pixels wide by 600 pixels high?  How many of you even know what that translates to?  Me neither, until a friend of mind, David Hutnick, who is the Social Networking Specialist at PhotoBiz.com where my website Triad Real Estate Photography is hosted told me about this.
