Prepping the Property for Picture-Perfect Shots
1. Declutter and Depersonalize: Make your space buyer-friendly by removing personal items like family photos and fridge magnets. Clear countertops and keep things neutral.
2. Straighten Furniture: A tidy room is an inviting room. Straighten bedspreads, push in chairs, and rearrange pillows for a polished look.
3. Illuminate Every Corner: Turn on all lights, including ceiling lights, table lamps, and range hood lights. Bright, well-lit rooms are more appealing.
4. Stop the Spin: Turn off all fans to prevent motion blur. Clear, sharp images are key.
5. Open Doors for Flow: Open all doors to create a sense of flow and space in your photos. It makes the home feel more welcoming.
6. Hide Pet Accessories: Tuck away pet bowls, toys, and bedding. These can be distracting and might not appeal to all buyers.
7. Prep the Pool Area: If you have a pool, make sure it’s clean and free of clutter. Remove pool cleaners and toys for a pristine look.
8. Boost Curb Appeal: First impressions matter! Trim the lawn, clear away clutter, hide rubbish cans, and move cars off the driveway for a tidy exterior.
Using SnapSnapSnap for Stunning Photos
1. Log In: Open SnapSnapSnap and log in with your BoxBrownie.com account. Sign up for free if you don’t have one yet.
2. Top Up Your Balance: Save time by adding credit to your account via the app’s settings.
3. Start a New Shoot: Tap the red plus button, name the shoot using the property’s address, and click "Add New Shoot" to begin.
4. Stay Steady: Use a tripod for stability. If handholding your phone, keep extremely still. SnapSnapSnap uses HDR bracketing to blend multiple exposures into a perfect shot.
5. Frame and Shoot: Frame your shot, keep still, and hit the shutter button. Once the camera icon reappears, you’re ready for the next shot.
6. Cover Key Areas: Walk through the property and capture main areas like the living room, kitchen, bedrooms, and outdoor spaces. Take multiple shots to ensure variety.
7. Review and Edit: Delete unwanted photos and select your edits. Brad recommends using a Day to Dusk edit for exteriors and an Image Enhancement edit for interiors. Need something removed or virtually staged? We’ve got you covered - you can do it all in the app!
8. Complete Your Order: Review your order and complete it. Our team will edit your photos and return them within 24 hours for standard edits and 48 hours for Virtual Staging. You can download the photos from the app or your BoxBrownie.com account.
