Description

Real estate photography is a very unique genre of photography. It requires a special set of skills at the shoot as well as during post-processing. We don't often acquire this set of skills from shooting or editing any other genres of photography.

​This course is specifically designed to provide the skills needed to produce high quality real estate photographs with the beginner real estate photographer in mind.

This course is packed with over 2 hours of video covering the HOW and the WHY of real estate photography.

We begin with the absolute basics by talking about essential gear. We then move on to composition rules for real estate photography and how they help to achieve our goal. After that, we move on to a sample photoshoot. We walk through each room in detail, taking several angles of each room.

Post-processing, or editing, is where the real magic happens. It can be a complex process for beginners who are new to Photoshop and Lightroom, but we break each step down into easy-to-understand parts so that even total newcomers can get comfortable in the workflow.

All topics are covered in extreme detail, perfect for beginners!

  • The goals of real estate photography

  • Basic gear and how to prepare it

  • Flash gear and how it works

  • Composition rules

  • The techniques to produce high quality images

  • Proper exposure settings

  • Achieving correct color balance

  • Window views

  • Setting up Lightroom and Photoshop

  • Understanding editing workflow

  • Making your images "pop!"

  • Exposure blending with layer masks

  • Removing "color casts"

  • Aligning verticals

You should have a basic understanding of general photography before beginning this course, although it is not required. Knowing the exposure triangle, and how it affects your overall image will be helpful however.

Thank you for letting me be your guide as you begin your real estate photography journey! Are you ready to begin? Let's get started.

Great little course!! I've done photography for a bit and wanted to try and give real estate photography a shot , used this as a crash course and used it on the field , pics turned out great! I would use this course if you know the in's and outs of your camera and exposure triangle to adapt to your surroundings. great course as a base and learned a lot in a short time for real estate flash photography.

I've seen Spencer's YouTube videos before and they are concise and very helpful. For $16.99, I couldn't pass this course up, even if I pick up a handful of new tips!

He goes through the steps slowly with concise descriptions. The repetitions of the same task have been exceptionally helpful for the retention of the phases of the shoot and post-processing. I am incredibly pleased with the quality and simplicity of this course.

I've taken many real estate photography classes. As a beginner, I need detailed step by step instructions on every part of the process. I've found that other course are lacking in this respect, where as Spencer's course is excellent for beginners like me. Thanks!

I am unfamiliar with post processing and appreciate the beginner pace during that lesson. Thanks for not assuming the students have prior knowledge like so many other tutorial instructors.

Very well-done course for all skill levels. I wish there were a cheat sheet for the settings used throughout the course, as well as the specific equipment used/recommended, but I can make that myself. Great course, and highly recommend!

I like it, I'd say only more in depth discussion on camera settings and basic gear, especially recommendations on flash gear, other than that, I love it.
