Capturing a property accurately in photos is important for making the right impression online. With properties competing for buyers’ attention, having photos that stand out for the right reasons gives yours an edge.
At Hovver, we have an expert photography process to capture listings with complete authenticity. We take pride in showcasing properties as they truly are – no exaggerated angles, no wide lenses distorting space, and no unrealistic colour correction.
Follow Our Photography Standards for True-to-Life Shots
We have firm photography standards in place to prevent manipulation and ensure photos represent the genuine feel and size of spaces:
- We shoot with professional full frame DSLR cameras and high-quality lenses. This equipment allows us to photograph spaces as the human eye would see them, without distortion from inferior gear.
- Our photographers only use lenses between 14mm-17mm. Anything wider can stretch and misrepresent room proportions. We avoid this to prevent spaces looking larger than reality.
- We include bracketed exposure photos to guarantee accurate lighting and colours. If an area looks too dark or bright, we can adjust in post without affecting entire shots.
- We shoot few photos photos per important room – left, right, centre – for complete spatial coverage without omitting anything important. This helps us to transform your property listing and make it grab more attention from home seekers.
- We follow official measurement standards when quoting room sizes, ensuring these remain precise to reality.
By following these photography rules, we remove any guesswork around how genuine shots are. Viewers see an authentic portrayal of rooms, layouts and dimensions.
Skillful Editing Maintains Realism
Capturing realistic photos is also about avoiding over editing. While some colour and lighting tweaks ensure shots represent how rooms feel, taking this too far damages authenticity.
Our expert photo editors stick to subtle edits that make shots pop without altering reality:
- We slightly boost contrast and vibrancy, so rooms don’t appear flat or dull. But we never oversaturate colours that weren’t originally there.
- We may subtly brighten underexposed or dark areas but avoid blowing out bright spots that lose detail. It helps to highlight all important aspects of your property.
- We remove minor distractions like outlet covers or small stains but never omit permanent fixtures or features.
- We correct minor perspective or lens issues but never digitally alter proportions, space or layouts.
By sticking to small refinements, we keep the genuine feel and accuracy of rooms intact. You can trust our photos reveal reality.
