How to Shoot Great Home Staging Portfolio Photos

If you’re serious about promoting your staging services, you need great before and after photos. These take time to plan and shoot; don’t expect to run through a house and get a bunch of great shots in 10 minutes.

If you’re trying to show the before and after of a certain room:

• Make sure both photographs are taken from the same angle.

• Shoot both of them with the same orientation, either horizontal or vertical.

• In the “after” shot, eliminate any distracting details like the dishtowel hanging from the stove or the opened toilet seat.

• Don’t shoot towards a window in daylight; it will make the rest of your image too dark.

These are some of the many tips contained in my new ebook “Staging Diva™ Ultimate Guide: Creating The Perfect Portfolio to Sell Your Home Staging Services” coming out March 1.
