While ai is not my favorite technology as it is too easy to "alter reality", there are times where it is very useful and can make editing easier and more cost effective that traditional techniques.

Here is an example of what can be accomplished, and what we can offer to our clients.

Being able to help clients help their clients visualize potentials is what our job is, and why our clients trust us to represent them the best possible way!

Look at this beauty!
We were hired to document some damage to property from heavy equipment, and could not resist the chance to capture this old girl!

The old saying applies here... "If those walls could talk."

School buses are up and running around the state line in some of the communities.. This means two things.

1. Pay attention for kids and those flashing lights/arms on the bus.

2. It's time to make that appointment for senior photos!

Fall is coming, and that is the busy season for chasing the golden colors of fall. So if you have a senior that still needs great photos of their final year of HS... Then give us a call to book an appointment now before they all fill up.

Happy Sunday!

Just wanted to give everyone a reminder that our real estate media platform has an online order form as well as online scheduling.

Scheduling your listing media while with the client is essential to building that confidence for your clients. Look at our live calendar while comparing it to your sellers vs waiting for the photographer to respond back is a game changer, and is one of the many ways we stand out against our competitors.

Did you know that Compass Photography services areas outside of the Rockford area??

We often hear "I had no idea you went outside of Rockford for photos".

This week alone, we have traveled to:

✅ Milwaukee, WI
✅ Delavan, WI
✅ South Elgin, IL
✅ Platteville, WI

There might be a travel fee depending on the location, but a small travel fee for the quality you know you will get, the consistency of our work, and not searching for another photographer in a new area is definitely worth it!

Our moto with this... "Have listing, will travel" 😂
