The foundation of every great listing.
We carefully select and train our photographers.
They focus on quality and our quality control team does the rest.
It is ultimately up to the client to decide how much or how little of the property they want to put on display. Some prefer an exhaustive, detailed look at the property, whereas others prefer to only offer a few images to give a sense of what the property is like. Please also remember that some MLS systems may limit the amount of photos that are usually available to be uploaded, though this can be bypassed by logging in directly into their systems.
We take only the best photographs and so we rarely expend the effort to more than a handful more than the project demands, and so we do not offer a proofing service. If you have specific requests for what we should photograph, please let your photographer know. We are happy to photograph what you want.
Our photographs are completely willing to accept direction on-site. We welcome our clients to tell us what is most important to them and what they want in their photo package. Given the limited time of the appointment, however, we advise clients to limit such special directions in order to assure the entire project is completed in a timely manner.
Our image processing wizards work hard to deliver you the best results. Your photographs will typically be improved with: Color correction. Adjustments to brightness, contrast, and exposure Cosmetic alterations like changing an overcast sky to a blue one. Cropping and small item removal Upon request, we can also virtually spruce up your lawn with green grass.
Removal of small items is included in the cost of your photography package. We recommend you tell your photographer on-site as to what sort of touch ups you’d like to see done. If you need any additional touch up requests after you received the photos then contact support@photosasap.com. We are usually able to deliver such touch-ups within 24-48 hours. Keep in mind, however, that large or detailed requests may incur an additional charge depending on the amount of work needed. We recommend having things as close as possible to what you want photographed to avoid such charges.
Of course we can! Though we generally focus on the layout and overall space of a property, unique features that the client believes are worth paying special attention to can and will be photographed upon request. Please let us know in advance all such features that you want emphasized in your photography package.
Typically, the entire property and all rooms are photographed. If for some reason you want to ignore or downplay some portions of the property please let your photographer know.
Unfortunately, our minimum packages (NJ: 15 photos, NYC: 6 photos) are the lowest we can go. It just does not make sense logistically for us to come out to photograph less than this given the time and expenses of such a shoot, which in turn would prohibitively raise the cost of such a limited shoot for our clients.
Yes, our pricing is the same.
Pricing depends on the amount of photographs taken, not on whether the property is for sale or for rent.
Our goal is to incorporate such common areas/amenities during the visit and in most instances, there’s no problem in so doing. Nevertheless, if access cannot be obtained, we will be unable to incorporate those areas into the shoot. However, because we keep many stock images on file of many areas we’ve visited before, we encourage our clients to contact us as we may already have the resources available to assist you.
We can and do shoot in all lighting conditions, from dark to bright. Nevertheless, please be sure your lights are in working order in order to get the best possible views of the property.
Whereas we generally only shoot walk-in closets, we are happy to oblige requests to showcase unique features of other closets such as shelving, shoe space, etc. Please be sure your closet is organized neatly to assure the best photographs can be taken.
Absolutely! While they're unable to accept or process any payments for your photo shoot, you're always welcome to provide personal tips onsite to your photographer.
Twilight photo shoots are scheduled 20 minutes before sunset and our teams stay on site for 30-45 minutes to capture the property as the sky darkens and the sun’s fading light glows. Meanwhile, night shoots focus take place just as evening descend with interior lighting in the house turned on to produce a beautiful contrast with the darkened environment, often leading to stunning results. Please be sure you have turned on all the lights in the property, inside and outside the house, and that anyone in the property remain out of site of the photographers to avoid being captured in the images.
Given both the length of time our photographers would have to spend on site and the optimal time of day for shooting in each setting, it would be impossible for us to schedule a day time and twilight/night shot as a single appointment. Instead, we recommend that a client interested in both a day and evening view of their property to schedule two separate photo shoots.
In a sense, HDR photos capture images in a way closer to how the eye sees the world. Our eyes do not use flash, but can naturally see a balanced range of lights and details even in dim conditions. Specifically, HDR combines different exposures together in order to assure maximal capture of light, while also providing beautiful depth, sharpness, and clarity. Plus, this removes the need for flash photography, which often produces flat and ugly lighting and strange shadows.
No. Our high-quality images are suited to every purpose, including websites, print advertisements, and virtual tours.
We are happy to come back another time to conduct an exterior photo shoot, but keep in mind that if you choose this option this will be billed as a separate appointment. We do not do split, single appointments, as we schedule for the whole project, and it is up to the client to tell us if they would like to reschedule so everything can be done in one visit. If you do want an exterior only shoot, please make sure to have everything set to your liking. We highly recommend that garbage cans be placed out of view, that vehicles are parked inside the garages, and lawn furniture is arranged how you want to present your property. As setting and staging are entirely up to the client, keep in mind that we will not be organizing these features for you. Our goal is to give you the best photography experience possible, so please have everything to put the best possible presentation for your property.
Unfortunately no. All packages are sold separately, and each package applies only to one unit of a property. One cannot split the packages across multiple properties, even if they are in the same building.
Our blue sky guarantee is our guarantee to make sure only the best visual experience is delivered to our customers. For exterior and interior-shooting, this means that we will edit at least half the sky blue to maximize the appeal of your shots. Of course, there are limitations. 1. We cannot add in blue sky when the sky is obscured by storms, fog, haze, or other inclement weather. We recommend rescheduling your shoot in these circumstances. Please read our cancellation/rescheduling policy for further details. 2. We also cannot edit video with blue skies.
While not required, a punch/shot list is not required but can be very helpful if you will not be present during the shoot.
Sadly, we are unable to deliver same day. Not only do our photographs undergo expert processing, but our photographers often work late into the evening and require time and reliable internet to provide the images to us so we can polish them to perfection.
Nevertheless, we pride ourselves on delivering next business day delivery once we are in receipt of your photographs. We go out of our way to guarantee a quick turn around so you are in possession of the photographs ASAP!
Not only are all of our expert photographers rigorously trained and screened for their expertise, but we assure that all equipment meets our exacting standards for quality. As such, all our photographers are expert in the use of their professional-level DSLR cameras equipped with wide angle lenses specially suited to photo shoots. We are committed to using only the best equipment that we have found produce the best, highest-quality, and most marketable images of your property. If you have a special equipment request for your photo shoot, it's best to contact our office before scheduling your appointment, to see if we're able to accommodate!
All orders receive an e-mailed receipt for your order total promptly! If you need a copy of your receipt, please reach out to our team through email at support@photosasap.com.
Yes, we are happy to do so, but this will be for an additional cost. Given the photography order is of the interior and exterior of the property, additional photography would require additional payment. Please schedule this in advance.
