Can you work to a deadline?

Yes. If you have a launch or listing date, tell me when you book and I’ll work to it.

Do you shoot film and drone on the same day?

Yes. One visit covers stills, film and drone, and I grade them together so they match.

Do you work with estate agents directly?

Yes. Agents book me directly for their vendors’ homes, and I deliver the files to the agency.

Every job is quoted. Send me the address and what you need and I’ll come back with a price.

Property photography

One scheme, one grade

Every plot, show home and elevation in a scheme should look like it belongs to the same place. I shoot them that way. Fifteen years shooting for brands like Hennessy and Porsche, now shooting homes and developments across Northern Ireland.

For developers and show homes

Developers need photographs that sell the plot before the last one is finished, and a show home a buyer can picture living in. A one-off house that deserves more than a quick listing needs the same care.

Book me and you get me. No juniors, no subcontractors. The person who walks the property with you is the person who takes the photographs and grades the files.

Stills, film and drone in one visit

One visit. Stills, film and drone. One grade, one house. I plan the day around the light, so each room is shot when the sun reaches it and the exterior gets the best hour of the day.

Shooting everything on the same day means the film and the stills match. Same light, same weather, same house. A walkthrough that looks like a different property makes a buyer hesitate.

One grade across a development

On a development, every plot has to look like it belongs to the same scheme. I grade the whole set together, interiors and exteriors, so the brochure, the website and the portal listing read as one place.

If the plots are shot months apart, I match the later sets to the first. The buyer should never see the join.

Straight lines, real windows

Verticals stay vertical. Windows show the view outside, not a white glare. Those two things separate a house that looks considered from one that looks rushed.

Deadlines

Tell me your launch or listing date when you book and I’ll plan the shoot and the edit around it.

The House

Bushmills, North CoastInteriorsGolden hourPhotographyFilm

Plantation shutters, herringbone oak, tan leather and a stone lamp. I shot the room in the last hour of daylight, when the sun comes low through the shutters and rakes across the grain of the floor. Stills and film share one grade.
