Some helpful hints for preparing your home.

  • The photo-shoot will take no more than two hours.
  • I will be photographing both the inside and outside of your home.
  • I will be photographing all of the major rooms. Typically we do not photograph the garage unless it has special features.
  • If you have special features of your home that you would like  included please let me know.
  • Please contain pets in the garage or out of sight
  • Remove all vehicles from driveways and do not park directly in front of the house
  • Move garbage cans out of sight.
  • Remove all garden tools including hoses and sprinklers.
  • Mow and rake yard
  • Sweep driveways, sidewalks, and patios
  • Clear off counter tops in kitchen and bathroom areas
  • Remove photos, notes and papers from the refrigerator
  • Turn on all interior lights.
  • Turn ceiling fans and televisions off.
  • De-clutter rooms which may be excessively furnished. They do not photograph well.
  • Make all beds and tidy bedrooms, fold or hang clothing and put away
  • Remove piles of newspaper and magazines.
  • Tuck trash cans out of view in a closet or cupboard.
  • Let me know if your home contains valuable works of art. I can edit photos to make these items unrecognizable.
