      @@InsideRealEstatePhotography How many photos do you deliver? Here in Northern California (Napa, Sonoma, etc.) the local MLS now allows for almost 90 or so photos. We guarantee no less than 30 photos and will deliver upwards of 55 photos depending on the property. We flip flop between flambient and HDR constantly, but we've worked on bettering our HDR skills. Our customers now value # of photos vs. exceptional look. This is everything from $400k to $11 million this year. Our avg. home is $750k. Thoughts?

    Thank you so much for making these videos! I just bought the hdr interior actions and it is super helpful! I have a bit of a rookie question lmao so bear with me, when I try to do the alt+right + click move the mouse left/right to change brush size it does not work at all, it brings up the dropper tool. I am on windows and I have found that only the bracket/parenthesis works to change the size. Do you know how to change it? Thanks again

    Thanks Mike for all the videos, I bought the actions and preset and wow what a difference in speed and quality. QUICK QUESTION, you mentioned most ceilings are white but lately I have been seeing a lot of beige, tan, and off white. Is there anything I could do to make the ceilings better when desaturating without it turning white ? Thanks Again

    • @InsideRealEstatePhotography
      @InsideRealEstatePhotography  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! It’s definitely harder to do in those situations but if you’re trying to get rid of say an orange color cast you can mask off the ceiling and reduce some of the orange in jt.

    • @InsideRealEstatePhotography
      @InsideRealEstatePhotography  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      My recommendation would be HDR for sure. Less complicated shooting process and you can concentrate more on getting good shots than fumbling with equipment.

    Hi Mike. Thank you for sharing this! When you were painting the white cross beams back in, I noticed the edges had some of the dark version of the photo left behind. Since it doesn't seem noticible in the photo once zoomed out, do yo usually leave it that way? Or was it left that way more for the sake of time for this tutorial?
    I guess the ultimate question would be, do clients evenr notice that?

    • @InsideRealEstatePhotography
      @InsideRealEstatePhotography  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For the sake of time I try not to obsess over perfection. If it looks fine when zoomed out and you can’t really tell then I leave it be and move on.

    hi, i would like to buy this package but i shoot with a a6000 that at 1/2/3 ev spacing allow me to do only 3 bracketed images, so those presets will work fine as well? Or they are built for 5 bracketed images? Also do you have a suggestion for my bracketing, because i can take 5 images up tu 0.7Ev and 3 at 1, 2 or 3 ev. What shooting mode you suggest me, 2ev 3 images or 3ev 3 images? Thanks a lot as always. I prefer to buy from you with all the free material that you post :) and i never see you talking about lumonity masks, what's your thought on that

    how do you blur the front yard sign lettering if its not able to be removed ?

    • @InsideRealEstatePhotography
      @InsideRealEstatePhotography  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Usually I would try to remove completely in photoshop. If that’s not possible I would just duplicate the layer in photoshop and do a Gaussian blur and use a layer mask to just select the sign so that’s the only thing blurred.

    I am sure this is good for people who are willing to edit their photos (25-60) for hours and hours this way, but I would rather not do that. In my opinion (and realtors opinion), speed is the key, at least in this market. If you are doing 40 photos and you take a 5 minutes to edit each photo. That is already around 3 hours of editing. I would at least double that if you include photoshop edits. If you have the time, then go for it, I guess.

      @@roblewisjr2 what you said is very true, while his technique is nice and the results are good, this is not a marketable workflow for low to medium-end properties which make up the vast majority of the market. After working in the industry for 8 years, I can say that 90% of realtors would not know nor care about minute improvements you can make to a photo. Under current market conditions, your clients will most likely prioritize cost and speed over perfectionism, the houses will sell regardless of whether you did a window pull or not. This video serves more as a guide on how to get into high end real estate photography, which is a very hard market to break into itself. You would not be taking 30+ photos and charging $120 for this degree of work, unless you have an abundance of free time and don't like getting paid for your effort.

      Shoot well. Auto merge. Quick tune up, dont kill the shadows and move em out. They get the job done, honestly. It's nice to see these hand blending skills and the workflow but yeah, 95% of realtors/clients won't bark about the difference if the product/price suits their needs. They're still receiving quality material and hopefully you're shooting multiple a day now!
