We recommend decluttering, cleaning all surfaces, turning on lights, and removing personal items. A well-prepared home helps create brighter, more appealing images that attract buyers.

-
Do you offer 3D virtual tours or floor plans?
Yes. We offer Zillow Showcase 3D tours — an immersive interactive experience that lets buyers explore the property from anywhere and appears directly on Zillow listings. We also provide both 2D floor plans and 3D photorealistic floor plans to help buyers understand layout and flow.
-
Can I order additional services after the shoot?
Yes, additional services such as video, drone footage, or extra editing can be added even after your initial booking - however your booking date and/or time slot may need to be altered slightly to accommodate the additional services.
-
Does professional real estate photography really make a difference?
Yes. High-quality real estate media helps listings stand out online, generate more interest, and can lead to faster sales and stronger offers. In competitive markets like the Pocono Mountains, professional visuals are essential.
-
Do you work with Airbnb and vacation rental properties?
Absolutely. We regularly work with Airbnb and short-term rental hosts to create high-quality photos and videos that increase bookings and improve listing performance.
-
What happens if the weather is bad?
If weather conditions are not suitable for outdoor or drone photography, we will reschedule or return to capture those elements when conditions improve.
-
What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?
We understand schedules can change. We ask for at least 24 hours notice to reschedule without a fee. Same-day cancellations may be subject to a cancellation fee.
-
Are You Licensed and Insured?
Yes. We carry full liability insurance, and our drone pilot holds an FAA Part 107 certification — the commercial drone license required by law for paid aerial photography. Certificates of insurance are available upon request for properties that require them.
-
Can You Remove Items From Photos Via Editing?
We can perform minor cleanup edits such as removing small distracting items digitally. However, for best results we recommend preparing the property before the shoot — removing vehicles from the driveway, clearing clutter from outdoor spaces, and ensuring interiors are staged. Major structural changes or furniture removal are beyond standard editing scope.
-
What Is Your Payment Policy?
Payment is due upon delivery of your media. We accept all major credit cards, Venmo, Zelle, and PayPal. No upfront deposit is required for standard bookings.
