I had the best experience working with Charlie. He is extremely talented and professional. The photos and videos he... took of my home are incredibly beautiful!!! after posting my vacation home on VRBO it booked immediately twice in less than a week. I couldn't have asked for a better photography company. He even showed me how to use the drone and was explaining the process as he took the photos. Charlie has a lot of experience when it comes to home photography.read more

  • Service Minded ALL real estate photo shoots include, for free; Blue Sky Replacement, Fireplace “virtual fires”, virtual lawn repair, eletrical chords removal and CLEAR views through the windows to feature each home listing in the best ways possible.
  • High Quality – I have almost 20 years of photography experience (mostly in the Santa Barbara, Calif area) and 8yrs of drone aerial photos and video.
  • Friendly – I love what I do and enjoy working with Real Estate Agents to sell their homes as quickly as possible.
  • PRICING that can’t be beat. (I absolutely LOVE what I do and prefer a full schedule vs over-pricing my services) Pricing can be found throughout the descriptions below, and a simplified list can be found here – Real Estate Pricing

As a Real Estate Photographer, my #1 goal is to give potential buyers a “just like being there” experience of a home in a way so it sells above the asking price. I believe that Real Estate Photography is more than taking nice photos, it’s about helping every real estate agent market a home in the very best light possible. I have had very extensive formal training specific to Real Estate Photography in addition to over 2 decades of working as a professional photographer.

“I highly reccomend Charlie. Thanks to him, my last listing sold the first day it hit the market!”

Selling your home as fast as possible for as much $ as possible. That what real estate photography is all about. I LOVE to get phone calls and emails letting me know that a home sold it’s first day on the market. I know how much work a real estate agent has to put into selling every home, so I do my absolute best to put the home and property in the best light possible. I have been very honored to provide photos and video for some of the largest companies in the country, (Hilton Hotels, The Golf Channel, even Chic-fil-A!), but I have also created extremely affordable real estate photography packages to keep me out doing what I love. I have listed my pricing at the bottom of this page below some of my real estate photos. I would love to work with you. Please give me a call today and let’s see how fast we can sell YOUR next home!

Real Estate Video

I do 2 types of real estate videos. One combines aerial video with an animated slide show of photos. (as found in the Bronze – Platinum packages on this page) The other type is 100% video inside and out of a home and that style can be found on my REAL ESTATE VIDEO page.

Real Estate Photography Pricing:

I use a minimum of 5 different exposures to create each photo for all of my real estate photos. (HDR – “High Dynamic Range” Processing) This give near perfect lighting to every room and even allows potential buyers to clearly see the view out each window. I have camera lenses that cost more than any car I’ve ever owned. This allows me to make even the small rooms common in older homes look spacious without any distortion.

At the request of many real estate agents, I have bundled the most requested items into simple packages that are ideal for MLS listings. They are super discounted and include interior and exterior stills, aerial stills and video. (Except MLS Package#2 which is Aerial Stills and Video Only) Stills and Video are all delivered seperately so you can use the stills on MLS, your website, print, social media etc. All photos and video are yours to own and use however you like digitally or in print. (Even 5 yrs from now, you won’t have to get my permission to use a photo on your website.) I also create a MLS/Youtube/Social Media friendly video from all the stills and video footage so your clients get the entire overview of the property in one short video. (Like the video samples above)

MLS Real Estate Bronze Package – $325

  • 5 HDR Aerial Stills – 2 to 3 taken of Home at low altitude, and 2 to 3 taken at the best height to highlight the surrounding area.
