Common Real Estate Photo Mistakes

Introduction
Even minor mistakes in real estate photography can cost you buyers and offers. Understanding common pitfalls helps you avoid them and present listings at their best.

Clutter & Personal Items

Leaving toys, family photos or clutter in the frame distracts buyers and makes spaces feel smaller. Always declutter and depersonalize before shooting.

Bad Lighting

Dark or blown-out images make homes look uninviting. Use natural light when possible, supplement with flash or continuous lighting, and shoot at the right time of day.

Poor Composition & Angles

Photos taken from awkward heights or extreme angles distort rooms. Shoot from eye level, straighten lines and use wide lenses correctly.

Over-Editing or Misleading Photos

Heavy filters, oversaturation or digital alterations can mislead buyers and damage trust. Edit images to enhance clarity and color, not to disguise reality.
