First impressions happen in seconds and for most home buyers, that first impression is online.
To make sure your property photos look like a magazine spread, here’s a quick pre-shoot checklist to get every room camera-ready:
✨ 1. Hide the daily clutter
Clear off kitchen counters and bathroom vanities. Keep appliances, soaps, and toothbrushes tucked away so the focal point stays on the architecture and space.
🚽 2. Put all toilet lids DOWN
Simple, but crucial! A minor detail that makes a massive difference in bathroom shots.
🚗 3. Clear the driveway & lawn
Park cars down the street or in the garage, hide garden hoses, and tuck away trash cans out of sight for that clean exterior hero shot.
💡 4. Turn ON all lights
Turn on lamps and overhead lights to create warmth and ambiance.
🛏️ 5. Smooth out beds & fluff pillows
Bedding catches light dramatically. Smooth out wrinkles and arrange accent pillows neatly for a cozy, inviting feel.
