Residential

Services

We can provide our clients with whichever type of photography they need:

  • Interior and exterior photography
  • Night photography
  • Aerial photography
  • Portrait photography

Delivery

Your photographs are delivered online, as soon as they are available, in resolutions specific to their use: High resolution for print and lower resolution for the internet, MLS and email. In addition we burn everything to a CD for your archives.

On our website, we create a photography "home page" for you. You may forward the link to your marketing department, ad agency, or print company so they can download printable images directly from our server. Saving you the hassle of delivering (or loosing) discs, and emailing large files. You can bookmark the page in your browser and refer back to it at any time...it will always be there and will update with each new project. Our standard delivery includes both online and CDs:

  • Online: 2 sizes - Low resolution for most online use (websites, MLS, email) and high resolution (6x9 inch) for most print use;
  • CD: 4 sizes - 8x12 inch, 6x9 inch, 4x6 inch, lower resolution for online (800x533 pixels).
We strive for a 1 day turn-around for residential photography. A shoot completed before Noon can usually be delivered the next day before Noon. Sessions after Noon are deliverable by close of business the next day.

Highlights from The New York Times (02-11-07):


  • When selling properties online, agents and Web designers say that the pictures buyers see of houses and apartments for sale are often the first - and sometimes the only - chance for a seller to make a good impression. "Good photos will grab people's attention and help you sell a home," said Jacky Teplitzky, an executive vice president of Prudential Douglas Elliman Real Estate in New York. "Bad pictures will absolutely give you trouble, because you won't have any calls on it, and nobody will come to see it."
  • Eighty percent of people across the country who bought a new home last year used the Internet while house hunting and they rated photographs as the most useful tool in their search...
