This was from a recent photo shoot for an agent with Century 21 in La Crescenta-Montrose. She had never used a professional photographer before me, but after the swift sale of her last listing she didn't hesitate to book me again for this one.

In real estate photography, working swiftly is imperative. I would love to spend hours on each room, but that is generally not conducive for this type of work. For an architectural, design, or hospitality shoot you may have an entire day to shoot just a handful of beautifully composed and lit photographs.

For real estate, the budgets tend to be smaller and everything needs to be done as fast as possible. This entire house was done in under two hours and there was a little over twenty finished photographs delivered. Just because you need to work fast doesn't mean the quality of your work should suffer. It just means you need to adapt and utilize every time-saving trick you have up your sleeve.

The whole shoot was a great success. I was thrilled with the final images and the client was more than ecstatic when she received them. More importantly than both the client and I being happy about the final product was the near immediate result:
