Let’s break it down. Composition is the foundation upon which everything else is built. A common misconception is that the goal is to make a space appear as large as possible. In reality, the focus should be on providing an accurate representation of the space. This includes correcting distortion and ensuring vertical and leading lines are properly aligned. Special marketable features like windows, fireplaces, countertops, and flooring should always be highlighted.
Next, we turn to lighting. Despite advancements in modern camera technology, cameras still can't capture the full visible spectrum that the human eye can perceive. To compensate for this, both natural and artificial light are strategically used to create pristine images. This may involve placing lights out of frame or combining multiple exposures to achieve the best result.
Roy Rogers is the seasoned owner and lead photographer at Jewel Homes. As the sole proprietor, he personally handles every aspect of the business, ensuring a seamless experience for clients from the initial consultation to the final post-production edits.
Roy’s journey into real estate photography began many years ago, sparked by his fascination with HGTV home renovation specials. Growing up, Roy’s mother, an accomplished interior designer, instilled in him a keen eye for detail, an appreciation for feng shui, and a deep understanding of how to showcase a space’s potential. His early exposure to design, paired with years of hands-on experience, has made Roy an expert in capturing the true essence of a property.
Having honed his craft over time, Roy knows that the art of real estate photography goes beyond just taking great pictures—it’s about telling a story and showing a home in its best light, despite the challenges that may arise. His expertise and dedication to the craft ensure that every project is executed with precision, creativity, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
