Real estate photography · Atlanta

In short

Real estate photography in Atlanta starts at $295: 90 min on location with a photographer who works in Atlanta, and 30 edited photos delivered to a private gallery within 24 hours.

Why choose Real estate photography in Atlanta?

Real estate photography in Atlanta is a 90-minute shoot of a listing’s interiors, exteriors and details, delivered as 30 MLS-sized and full-resolution images within 24 hours, priced from $295. The thing that makes Atlanta listings harder than most is the same tree canopy the rest of the city loves: in Virginia-Highland, Kirkwood, Decatur or Brookhaven a mature oak can put the whole front of a house in shade for most of the day. The exterior is therefore scheduled for the hour the sun reaches the facade, and the interiors fill the rest of the visit.

Worth knowing about Atlanta

From late March through April, Atlanta’s pine pollen lays a yellow film over decks, patio furniture, cars and windows, and it shows in every exterior frame. Atlanta Allergy & Asthma publishes the daily count from the only National Allergy Bureau–certified station in the Atlanta area; when that count is high, the seller is asked to rinse the deck, furniture and outside glass the evening before the shoot.

What does the session in Atlanta look like?

Intown bungalows and craftsman homes
Porches and deep eaves under old trees; the facade is photographed when the light reaches it, not at a fixed hour.
Midtown and Buckhead condominiums
Window-pull blending matters most here, where the skyline view out of the glass is much of the asking price.
Suburban new construction, Alpharetta to Peachtree City
Open lots and full sun, where a twilight exterior is worth more than a midday one.

FAQ — Real estate photography in Atlanta

When should an Atlanta house be photographed for the listing?

An Atlanta listing is best photographed at the hour direct sun reaches the front of the house, which under intown tree cover can be a narrow two- or three-hour window that moves with the season. From November to March the bare canopy opens the facade up for most of the day, and in spring the decks and windows are rinsed of pine pollen first.

How fast are Atlanta real estate photos delivered?

Atlanta real estate photos are delivered within 24 hours of the shoot, as 30 retouched images in both MLS-sized and full-resolution versions with vertical correction and window-pull blending included. A property photographed in the afternoon can therefore go live on the multiple listing service the next morning, licensed for use with that listing.
