FAQ

  • What is the best way to photograph a house for real estate?

    The best way to photograph a house for real estate is to use a wide-angle lens, natural light when possible, and professional editing to balance brightness and color. At Power Homes Media, we handle every step for you—capturing sharp, well-composed photos that highlight a home’s space and features, ensuring your listing looks professional and appealing online.

  • How much does real estate photography cost?

    Our pricing depends on the package you choose. We offer photo-only shoots, drone add-ons, video walkthroughs, and premium media bundles. Most agents find our packages affordable compared to the increased exposure and quicker sales they achieve.

  • Do professional real estate photos really help homes sell faster?

    Yes. Studies show that listings with professional photos receive more online views and often sell faster than homes with amateur photos. Buyers are more likely to schedule a showing when the listing photos are sharp, bright, and inviting.

  • What areas do you serve for real estate photography?

    Power Homes Media is based in Lacey, WA, and serves Olympia, Thurston County, and the greater South Sound area. We also travel to surrounding markets, with a small mileage fee if the property is outside our core service zone.

  • Can you do drone photography for real estate listings?

    Absolutely. Drone (aerial) photography is one of our specialties. Aerial shots highlight the property’s size, layout, and surrounding neighborhood, giving buyers a better perspective than ground photos alone.

  • What is included in a real estate media package?

    Packages can include interior and exterior photos, drone photography, video walkthroughs, floor plans, and virtual tours. We also offer add-ons like twilight conversions, community feature photos, and room-by-room reels for social media.

  • How quickly do I get my photos and videos back?

    We provide next-day delivery as standard. For urgent needs, our rush delivery option ensures your photos and videos are ready within 12 hours.

  • Do you offer virtual staging for empty homes?

    Yes. Virtual staging helps buyers visualize how furniture and décor would look inside a vacant property. This affordable solution makes listings more appealing without the cost of physical staging.

  • Why is video important for real estate marketing?

    Video tours allow buyers to experience the flow of a home before scheduling an in-person showing. Our cinematic walkthroughs and vertical social media clips help your listing reach buyers on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook.

  • Can you make real estate photos look like twilight shots?

    Yes. Our twilight conversion add-on creates stunning dusk-style photos without requiring a separate evening shoot. These images are popular on MLS listings and social media.

  • How do I choose the right real estate photography package?

    Choosing the right package depends on your listing and marketing goals. Smaller homes may only need professional listing photos, while luxury properties benefit from drone shots, cinematic videos, and floor plans. At Power Homes Media, we guide you toward the package that best fits your property’s needs and budget.

  • Do you offer discounts for high-volume agents or teams?

    Yes. We provide retainer pricing for agents or teams that need multiple shoots each month. This ensures priority scheduling and bundled savings.

  • How do I book a real estate photography session?

    Booking is simple. You can schedule directly online through our automated system, which also provides a prep checklist, payment options, and fast delivery once your shoot is complete.

  • Do you provide 3D tours or floor plans?

    Yes. We create interactive 3D tours and accurate floor plans that help buyers visualize space. These tools keep buyers engaged longer and make your listing more competitive.

  • Why choose Power Homes Media over other real estate photographers?

    We focus exclusively on real estate media, offering fast turnaround, consistent quality, and a variety of marketing solutions tailored to real estate agents. Our goal is not just great photos, but helping you sell homes faster and impress clients.
