How to find the right photographer
Finding a photographer who can operate at the level you need and create beautiful images is probably your most difficult challenge. Before we move onto exploring what to look for, here’s what to avoid:
- A photographer every other estate agent is using
- Agreeing to paying per image used
- Being charged by the hour
- A photographer who only submits to you a small proportion of images he took
- A photographer who lacks patience
- A family portrait photographer
- A photographer who is too cheap (less than £150) or too expensive (more than £350)
- A photographer who wants to charge you for all travel
Instead of using a photographer that every other agent in your area uses, and sacrifice differentiation, look for that hidden gem no one else has discovered. We currently use three photographers in our agency. All three have a great eye for composition, and a keen sense for how to use light.
