Give me three minutes and I’ll teach you something about interior photography -

There are three main ways to photograph a home, and the right choice depends on the light and environment:

Single Shot: A single click, like when you take a snapshot of a person or scene. This is the most common way to take a photo.

HDR (High Dynamic Range): Three to five photos taken at different exposures from the same location then blended together to preserve both highlight and shadow detail. HDR relies on natural light, which can create beautiful results but can be restricted by the time of day and the home’s orientation. This is by far the most used method of real estate photography. Why? It’s can deliver nice results quickly.

Flambient (Flash + Ambient): This is the platinum standard for interior photography. A refined technique that combines the natural glow of ambient light with the balanced clarity of flash. The result is a color-accurate natural-looking image with true whites, crisp detail and none of the unwanted “color casting” that makes white walls look yellow from a lamp or beige furniture looking green-ish from trees outside reflecting through a nearby window. By using a neutral 5500K flash, you dominate the scene with natural light to balance out the colors to their intended representation.

Recently, a realtor called me to “refresh” a listing that has been sitting on the market for a while. In cases like this, the original HDR photos left the property looking inconsistent. The flambient system brought the listing to life again, turning natural light limitations into vibrant, inviting images. On the left are the original HDR shots; on the right, the refreshed flambient results.

What Sets Us Apart?

Your phone calls, emails and text messages will be answered in a timely fashion.

Yes, wide angle lenses are used, but not all the time. Plus we compensate that aspect in post so there’s no square doorways and refrigerators.

Televisions were meant to have pictures on them, preferably of Lake Tahoe, and not be black monoliths on the wall. We make sure that happens. We’ll even put a fire in the fireplace to make the place feel warm and cheerful.

Dirty windows, sliding glass doors and cobwebs take 5-10 minutes to physically clean, 30 minutes in Photoshop. We roll up our sleeves to get the work done and keep the photo editor sane. Yes, it makes a huge difference.
