Here are some simple photo tips for creating great pictures of a home. Photos are even more important in this digital age since 80% of home buyers start their search online.
At Home Staging Pros in Orlando Florida we understand that in this housing economy having a beautifully, professionally staged home is critical in order to compete and good photos show the home at its best.
Here are some critical picture taking pointers to remember:
1. Go For Volume -With digital cameras, you can never have enough photos so feel free to snap away! Plant yourself in every corner of the room and take the shot. Don't simply stand there and shoot, get low or high (on stairs or chair) in order to produce a more interesting picture that draws the buyers eye.
2. Turn On the Lights -Every light in the room must be on and your blinds or drapes should be open! Indoor light has a photographic quality all it's own that adds warmth and color which adds a rich effect that emotionally draws in a buyer.
3. Turn Off the Flash -Take a picture with a flash but ALWAYS take one without the flash which will usually be your inevitable first choice shot. Why? Because the flash adds a hard light quality whereas removing the flash forces your camera to draw in as much natural and artificial light adding a warm, comfortable glow to the shot which buyers can respond to.
*REMEMBER - You must have a steady hand otherwise there will be blurring. A photographers trick is to steady your arms against your body, specifically, pushing your upper arms into your chest as you shoot. At the same time, spread your legs wide so as to have a tripod effect. Another trick is to lean against a wall or door frame to steady your shot.
