For homeowners & estate agents
Pre-shoot
checklist.
Give the property its best chance to speak for itself. A little preparation lets every room, detail and view come through clearly.
A quick note before we arrive
The photographer will not be staging the home, so please have the property clean, tidy and photo-ready before arrival. If helpful, we can also provide a staging consultation ahead of the shoot.
Make every
pixel count.
Kitchen & bathrooms
- Remove washing-up, tea towels, toiletries and cleaning products.
- Empty sinks, close toilet lids and use fresh, simple towels.
- Wipe mirrors, glass and reflective surfaces for a clean finish.
Living spaces & bedrooms
- Make beds neatly and remove excess cushions, throws and laundry.
- Give each room one clear purpose. Store away anything that distracts from it.
- Keep furniture tidy and leave clear walking space through the room.
Outside & practical details
- Move cars, wheelie bins, hoses and garden tools out of sight.
