Our aim is to capture the best possible photos of your home. It's what we're good at.
We have an art director and a professional film director on our team; they style & grade every home we shoot.
We have a small ask ahead of the photo and video shoot. Please make your home look its absolute best!
Some Tips 👇
1. The Basics
If you're time-poor, just read this one.
Depersonalise, declutter and free the floor space
Get everything clean and sparkling
Open blinds fully and straighten curtains
Ensure that all light bulbs are working and turn on all lights
Straighten tables and chairs and arrange cushions attractively
Room by Room
2. The Kitchen
Clear worktop of all non-essential items
Remove fridge magnets
Remove washing up liquids, tea towels, soaps and plugs
Hide rubbish bins, pet food bowls.
Adding a bowl of fresh fruit or vase of flowers can do wonders
3. The Bathroom
Clear toothbrushes, soaps, razors, plugs and shampoos from showers and baths
Remove bins, scales, bathmats and laundry baskets
Keep towels to a minimum – well placed, colour matched towels are great
Close the toilet lid, remove toilet brush and spare toilet rolls
Adding candles or unusual bottles adds some interest
4. The Bedrooms
Clear all surfaces of clothes, shoes and laundry
Remove tissues and jewellery from bedside tables
Make sure you can’t see anything under the bed
Ensure the bed looks tidy, use your best ironed linen
5. Reception & Dining Rooms
Clear all children’s toys, remotes and excess books
Clean fireplaces, open blinds and plump cushions
If you have an attractive looking fireplace, lighting it looks wonderful
6. Outside Space
Please park any cars on the road in front of your property before the shoot (With no cars on show, it gives the sense of a quiet street and a clean facade)
Move bins, garden hoses, toys, tools and bikes out of sight
If you have hedges or trees, please consider trimming them
Clean patios, mow grass and rake any stray leave
We love property photos, and we're excited to see yours :).
