What is real estate photography?

Real estate photography is professional photography of a property for sale, rent or holiday letting: bright, straight, well-composed images of each room, the exterior and any outdoor space. It's for estate and letting agents, landlords, holiday-let owners and people selling their own home.

Shoots start from £150, with the final price depending on the size of the property and any extras. Floor plans, video and drone photography are available where legally permitted; drone flights in the UK are regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority, and your photographer will confirm whether a flight is possible at your property. Images are professionally edited and delivered in a private online gallery.

What’s included

  • Interior photography of each main room
  • Exterior and outdoor spaces
  • Professionally edited digital images, sized for listings
  • A private online gallery
  • Floor plans, video and drone available as extras

Who it’s for

Estate and letting agents who need consistent listing photos, landlords letting a property, homeowners selling privately, and holiday-let owners who need images that stand out on booking platforms.

It also suits developers and architects who want a finished property or a show home photographed. For hotels, B&Bs and venues where food and guests are part of the story, see restaurant and hotel photography.

How to prepare

Declutter every room: clear worktops, hide bins, remove fridge magnets, toiletries and personal photos. Make beds, straighten cushions, open curtains and turn on all lights, replacing any blown bulbs. Mow the lawn and move cars away from the front of the property.

If the property is occupied by tenants, give them proper notice and agree access. Tell your photographer if you want floor plans, video or drone shots, so they can check whether a drone flight is permitted at the location and plan the timing.

Where to have it photographed

Availability depends on photographers in each area and is confirmed with your quote.

Property: your questions

Can you take drone photos?

Where legally permitted. Drone flights in the UK are regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority, and restrictions apply in some areas, such as near airports; your photographer will confirm whether a flight is possible at your property.

Do you provide floor plans?

Floor plans are available as an extra. Mention them when you enquire so they are included in your quote.

How should I prepare the property?

Declutter, clean, open curtains and turn on the lights. Clear worktops and moving cars off the drive make the biggest difference.

How quickly can we have the images?

Turnaround is confirmed in your quote. Rush delivery is available from £100 if you have a listing deadline.
