Lovely! I have one criticism which is....why did you not take the picture in the exact angle? This is a pet peeve of mine because you can't really see that this is the same house. I know that for me to get a WOW impact I like to see the exact changes that were made to the room and when you don't take pictures of the same view its frustrating. Thats just my opinion though. I think it would have much more impact if you did!

Great choice of art work! I agree, the before and afters should be taken from the same angle otherwise it could be 2 different rooms, even in different houses!

That second photo came out beautifully. Job well done! Can we see additional photos or was this the only staged room? I also have to agree with the others, it's much more helpful when photos are taken from the same angle when showing before and afters.

I have to tell you that I actually gasped when I saw your final result. That was incredible the difference. I'm sure the sellers will decide to not hang up those things, whatever they were, on the ceiling of their next house.
