In order to make the most of our photography experience with you, here are some tips!

Outside Your Home:

Put away trash cans, gardening tools, hoses, etc.

Be sure grass has been recently mowed, flowerbeds weeded, bushes trimmed & yard waste disposed of.

Store/stash away children’s toys & bikes.

Pick up pet toys, droppings, and food/water bowls.

Position patio umbrellas up, un-stack chairs, and remove pool and hot tub covers.

Be prepared to remove vehicles from driveways on day of photo shoot (and, if possible, not directly in front of the house on the street – they will be seen in photos taken from the inside looking out).

For the best results,  we need to have the sun on the front of the house but not in our camera lens.  Let us know what time of day this happens and we can schedule your appointment accordingly.

Inside Your Home:

Turn on all lights and replace any missing or burned out bulbs.

If you have hardwood flooring – give them a once over with a conditioning product for a nice shine.

Living/Dining Rooms:  De-clutter your fireplace, mantle & book shelves.

Kitchen:  Buyers love to see nice kitchens:  make sure you clean everything you can off your countertops to show as much space as you can – if you must leave appliances out and on the counters, make sure they are clean and polished.  Take everything off your refrigerator (magnets, things stored on top, etc).  Put away trash cans and pet food/water bowls.

Bedrooms & Offices:  Pickup laundry, make beds, vacuum all floors, and de-clutter book shelves.  Tidy up office/workstations:  temporarily stash piles of papers out of sight.

Bathrooms:  De-clutter and clean countertops and mirrors.  Hang fresh towels on towel bars and close toilet lids.

Laundry/Utility Rooms:  De-clutter and clean countertops.  Fold and put away piles of laundry.

Family Pets:  For safety reasons we ask that your pets be placed in a safe, locked area of your home or the garage during the photo shoot.
