>>4413994Are the properties all like these? I am from latam and there are many shitty properties like that one. There's not that much to say/do about them.
Pre production
-Get a camera with a wide angle lens (14-22mm). Phones usually have wide angle lenses.
-Get a tripod that can hold the camera or the phone.
-Study the concept of bracketing. Cameras can do it easily, phones might need an app for it
-Set up your camera or phone to shoot RAW files
-Set up automatic white balance.
-Remind your customer the place has to be clean.
Production
-As a photographer you are paid to shoot, not to organize. Many owners will have a mess expecting you to clean and move stuff for them. Don't. You shoot the place as is. If something is broken or lost they will blame you. Refuse to move stuff and have them do it. If they push back, just tell them that you have had "previous negative experiences and you don't do it anymore" even if not true.
-Walk around the property, make sure you don't miss any important features and turn on all the lights.
- Set up your tripod to shoot just above your belly button and not at eye height.
-Be careful about your vertical lines, use the edge of the frame for reference.
-Shoot every room from all corners. You may not need all the images but better safe than sorry. Corners are better unless you have an interesting feature/space to shoot from the center.
-If a room is too small (like your pic) leave out the intruding wall. It makes the place look cramped and ugly, if you leave it out you give the viewer the idea of having more space on that side.
-Small bathrooms shoot horizontal, but also vertical from the door, so you have both perspectives.
-Ask if they have extra features to show. A gym, parking space, outdoor pool, etc. Sometimes these things fly under the radar.
Post production
-Merge your multiple exposure.
-Go for a brighter than not look. People want their images to glow.
-Hit the vertical line correction on lightroom or capture one
