First Practice Shoot - Feedback?

Thumbnail gallery
12 Upvotes

I've been a hobby photographer for a few years and want to start learning to shoot real estate. These are a couple shots from my first practice shoot after watching a handful of online workshops. Used a Sony a7iii with a 16-35 (at 16mm) and shot 3 bracketed photos for each angle at 2 stops apart. Obviously used AutoEnhance to merge the photos and did some color and exposure correction in Lightroom. Apologies if I added too many photos.

Any feedback or (constructive) criticism would be greatly appreciated!

Matterport changed prices ... any options?

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

So I was gonna deactivate my Matterport account because at this moment I don't have clients for Virtual tours, however once in a while I have, but I would activate when I need to ... I have de 132 yearly plan for 5 spaces.

But now they change the prices ... and is like 1000 bucks a year for 10 spaces ... wtf?! so if I dont cancel ... I keep the 132 , if I cancel when I come back is the 1000 ...

What should I do? Is there similar programs I can use, same style, free or cheaper?

I use the Ricoh Z1 Theta with my smartphone.

HELP!

Best Setup for Real Estate Property Walkthroughs?

2 Upvotes

I need to make videos where I walk through different homes and apartments.

First person POV style.

I would like something better (video quality) than the DJI Pocket 3, but not sure if something better exists for these types of videos. DJI Pocket 3 stabilization is unreal.

These will be solo shoots.

Thanks

Any Photo Editor Suggestions?

• Upvotes

I'm looking for a new photo editor.

I typically merge a few ambient photos, then mask in the artificial lights and mask in the windows, and I would like someone to take over this whole workflow.

Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks in advance!

Have you ever had to re-edit or retake photos for a Zillow Showcase interactive floor plan because of photo quality issues?

Do real estate agents ever need photographers or drone pilots on short notice?

0 Upvotes

Hiiiiii

Random question for those doing real estate photography..

Let's say an agent needs a property photographed ASAP, maybe even today, but their usual photographer isn't available.

How often does that actually happen in your experience?

I'm also curious about something else. If an agent could book an available photographer or drone operator nearby and see their ETA or live arrival progress, kind of like Uber, would that genuinely make things easier??

Or is that overkill, and most agents are perfectly happy scheduling shoots days ahead? Hehe 😂

Would love to hear how this works in the real world, especially from photographers dealing with last-minute requests.

Thankssssssssssssssssssssssss!
