Prepare before the camera comes out

Turn on suitable lights, align window coverings, remove temporary clutter and check reflective surfaces. Walk through the property and decide which views help a buyer understand how rooms connect. Small distractions are usually easier to correct on location than in post-production.

Compose for clarity and believable space

Keep vertical lines straight, avoid placing important furniture at distorted frame edges and use a camera height appropriate to each room. Preserve enough exposure information for windows and mixed lighting. Consistent brackets, white balance and filenames make editing more predictable.

Refine without misrepresenting

Editing can balance exposure, correct color, align perspective and remove temporary distractions, but permanent materials and features should remain credible. Review the gallery as a set for room-to-room brightness, color and sharpening. IFOTO combines hand editing with a final quality-control pass to maintain a repeatable visual standard.
