If you are an agent or real estate photographer who is still getting comfortable with the practice of shooting empty spaces for virtual staging, the following points will make your life a little easier.
5 Tips for Virtual Staging Photography
1. Shoot and submit your photos in as high a resolution as possible
The higher the resolution an image is shot in, the more conducive it is for any sort of adjustment, during the photo editing stage.
When virtually staging properties, the more flexibility our photo editors have to play with levels of brightness or tone, the better able we are to bring out the full brilliance of a room’s potential.
TT Photo’s experts always care about the photo’s resolution first. We also recommend photographers use cameras with high resolution. Because of complicated features with lots of details, real estate photos need to be naturally clear and crisp.
2. Use the widest-angle lens you have access to
Real estate photography is about presenting the property in an appealing, but also realistic manner. The only time it is ok to use a wider shot is in tight spaces. A widest-angle lens helps much for taking an overview photo of the wanted-to-sale property.

3. Shoot everything at eye level
One final note on angles – it’s never a good idea to capture too much ceiling. The amount of surface area a photo editor has to work with is always good to keep in mind when taking pictures for virtual staging.
Our virtual decorators are certainly among the best in the world. But it’s never an easy (or advisable) feat to virtually stage a ceiling! All of the customers’ concerns are about how to arrange the virtual interior, not about the ceiling.
4. Shoot in the corner of the room where possible
Just like the four points on a compass, the four corners of a room will give you the best orientation as to how to shoot it for virtual staging. For virtual staging artists, the corners of a room are great depth indicators that provide a perfect framework for decorating a space.
