If you’re working on making your La Quinta real estate listing stand out from the rest, then you’ll need to include many photos shot from a wide variety of angles. If you’ve decided against hiring a professional photographer to shoot your home, then it’s time to brush up on your photography skills so you can display your property in the best light possible.
Since many others in the market may go the professional route when it comes to photographing Indian Wells homes for sale, you’ve got a high standard to meet. But if you follow these tips for shooting the interior of your home, you’ll get some great photographs as a result.
- Aim for sharp focus. To achieve this, keep your apertures small—between f/11 to f/16—and avoid shooting too close to furniture or other objects in the room. Make sure there is plenty of light to avoid blurriness.
- Incorporate some wide angle shots. Shooting from a wide-angle will allow you to capture entire rooms and make them appear bigger.
- Pay attention to the details. Shoot several photos that convey the character of your home. If you have gorgeous Italian tile in the bathroom, get a close up of this area. If your living room has a view of your beautifully landscaped yard or a swimming pool that is so common among Indian Wells homes for sale, take a photo that shows the view from the appropriate angle.
- Avoid mirrors. We all know that mirrors make rooms look bigger, but they can be a serious distraction in photos, as your reflection or that of other items in the room can show up in the photo and be confusing to the person looking at it.
- Watch your proximity to glass. Try to avoid for flash reflections in windows and any glass in the rooms. These reflections can cause hot spots and ruin the photo.
Employ these tips to up your photography game and boost the appeal of your La Quinta real estate listing.
