Prepare Your Property For A Photo Shoot

Prepare your property for a photo shoot makes a difference. In today’s online world, we see a lot of well-styled interior photographs. Home magazines, social media,  all these places are packed full of well-styled interiors. All use styled images because they know it is important. Good styling can transform a tired, cluttered property into a desirable home.

Preparing Your Kitchen

Go for a clean and decluttered kitchen that looks organized and welcoming. Clear the sink, remove any personal items from the kitchen including photos, fridge magnets, notes, etc. Arrange some kitchen machines on the counter in a tidy way. Make sure that the countertop and other surfaces are clean. Stage the Kitchen area with one small appliance, fresh fruit, small artwork, or maybe a cookbook, less is more! Hide all kinds of garbage cans. Don’t forget to check all light bulbs, and turn on all  light features your kitchen provides.

PREPARING YOUR Dining Room

Clean the floor and the furniture. Make sure that all light bulbs are working and have an equal color temperature. Declutter the dining table and straighten the chairs and make sure they are evenly spaced. Highlight one focal point, for example, a small flower or some small table decoration to freshen the space up. A fully set up and decorated table has also the benefit for serviced apartments and Airbnbs to show in one or two photos what kind of dishes and amenities are available in a fully furnished unit.

PREPARING YOUR Living Room

Another room with a point of interest for the buyers is the living room. To get started to prepare this room, is by decluttering the room. Minimize photos and personal items, to get a clean look at your living room. Set tables with simple place settings, less is more to keep the focus on the room. Remove furniture that might block the view or make the room look smaller. Check if all light bulbs work and have an equal color temperature. Ensure that glass doors, floors, mirrors, and windows are clean, especially in key areas of the room.

PREPARING YOUR Bathroom

Making the bathroom look beautiful means removing the everyday things that are  not aesthetically pleasant. Remove individual things like toothbrushes, hairdryers, shampoos, and other toiletries. Wipe  the counter and clean the floor and carpets. Set up tidy towels in the shower or at the bathtub. in addition, some small decorative items can transform the bathroom into a room with a welcoming atmosphere.

PREPARING YOUR Exterior

Preparing the exterior of your home is no less important than preparing the interior. In fact, the first photo that potential buyers or tenants see is in many cases an exterior photo of the property. To get started to prepare the exterior, hide garden tools, hoses, bikes, and garbage bins, as they can ruin the front exterior look of your property. If your property has a swimming pool, make sure the water is clean and the pool nightlights are working. Gutters and roofing should be clear of moss and weeds. Make sure that the light bulbs around the property are working.
