Photography

  • Drone Photography: Some properties benefit from having aerial photography (◄left) and/or aerial drone video (right►).
    Example: Bixby House

  • Virtual Tours: Virtual Tours (◄left) are an important feature now especially with the need to be aware of social distancing. With these you can walk through a home from your computer, iPad or even smart phone.

  • Professional Photography: To evoke emotion and inspire a buyer’s vision for a property, we use creative photography and cinematography to raise the bar on our real estate marketing. Vivid images make impressions in the mind for several days and influences the decision made by buyers. Most buyers are shopping online and good photography is a major factor in attracting potential buyers to your home.
