I have always been a visual person. I love certain colors that draw me and entertain me. I love beauty and the visual aesthetic quality of presenting things well. There is a flow to the art of presentation that will keep the eye moving and finds the heart and mind feeling satiated. When things are not so placed there is a war going on within the mind to analyze and find the flaw. When we have achieved that beautiful balance of placement, color, texture and flow, the mind joins with the heart to enjoy and experience that "aha moment".
Photography is of great value in real estate. It provides the opportunity to help our Reader learn more about our local community. We can use it to help the Reader find that "aha moment" in our work and to come to appreciate our presentations. It works well in all regards to real estate. It can delight and it can provide practical marketing benefits for a listing. There is a wide range between the two. Let' s just enjoy several photos that take us in diverse directions today. We are enjoying how photography can delight our Readers. No "how to" or "equipment" related tips....just the experience.
I have been taking photos for Localism for several years now and have a vast inventory of photos for my work. This was taken on a rare day when Shasta Lake was full. I don't take many photos of the Lake because most of the time it is not pretty. The water levels have gone down at times to 200 feet leaving a sad sight. This was a beautiful clear day when you could see Mount Shasta. It is a favorite photo of mine and I brand with it.
This is a logo that I designed for The ActiveRain Go-Givers Group. Using Picnik (sob) we have endless capabilities to design and create photo art. Charting, collages and slide presentations are all possible. We have heard that Picnik will be shut down in April, 2012.
There is a petition to sign in protest of Google doing this. It is here.
I love this photo. This was a Tuscan Villa that David and I truly enjoyed doing the marketing for. I love the richness and warmth of the room. She had created the perfect subject to photograph. We had fun showcasing this beautiful estate.
This photo is of Clear Creek, a local area where we have Salmon spawning. It is nearby and we can visit often. I love sharing the beauty of our area. It brings me business for those interested in relocating to the North State.
Trinidad Lighthouse - Jeanean Gendron
Visiting the Coast we enjoyed the beach and captured this shot. The art of sharing is an art form when practiced often. Wherever we go, we always take our camera and we are always prepared to get a shot that will be worthy of sharing with our Readers. It is the sweet part of our work and it is very effective.
Pier to Nowhere - Jeanean Gendron
This is another photo on our trip to Eureka. On Samoa Island we found a world long forgotten. I love to do a series of shots that tell the story of the land and the place.
