Take Photos That Actually Sell

Get the Lighting Right

Lighting makes or breaks your photos. Poor lighting turns luxury into low-rent. Good lighting makes modest homes look amazing.

❌ Harsh and Unwelcoming

Blown-out windows, dark shadows, mixed colour temperatures.

✓ Warm and Inviting

Balanced exposure, visible views, consistent colours.

Frame It Like a Pro

How you frame your shots makes rooms look bigger and more appealing. Follow these simple rules for photos that sell.

Essential Composition Rules

Shoot from Corners

Position yourself in room corners at chest height. Shows maximum space and creates depth.

Keep Lines Straight

Walls and door frames must be vertical. Use a tripod with level. Fix in editing if needed.

Guide the Eye

Use floors, benchtops, hallways to lead viewers through the space.

Rule of Thirds

Place key features at intersection points of imaginary 3×3 grid.

✓ Proper Composition

Corner shot, straight lines, clear focal point, leading lines.
