Professional vs. Amateur Real Estate Photography

With the popularity of networks like HGTV and DIY Network, Real Estate Agents have really had to up their game when selling a home.  Clients are becoming more savvy and educated when shopping for a new home.  As with most industries, Real Estate has gone digital.  Web pages are the new flyer.  Buyers won’t even visit a home without seeing photos they love.  This makes real estate photography even more important when selling a home.  The photos of your home can make or break you in the sales process.

 

I’m always surprised when I see agents taking their own photos in Real Estate sales.  These images are your calling card.  They are your introduction to the market.  A recent client, Kevin Ferrara of Cottage Hill Real Estate was kind enough to share a recent experience with Photography by Nikki Cole…

 

“Not only is Nikki Cole extremely talented, she is joy to work with and has a great vision as seen by all her work. Nikki asks how I plan to market the home before shooting and creates images that showcase the features I feel are the key selling points.  It makes for a seamless process.  Her pictures have brought more traffic to my homes and I believe have helped sell homes.”

 

Below are some images taken from a recent real estate shoot.  I’ve placed them next to some photos Kevin originally took.  I hope you’ll see the difference a professional photo can make!
