Wow! Way late getting this posting done… With Christmas and out of town family visiting I’ve completely gotten behind schedule!

Every real estate photographer has their own unique style and approach. Below are a few recent shots I captured during the month of December 2019 here in the greater Knoxville TN area. If you like my work and approach I would love to earn your business! Please feel free to view my packages and pricing here. Also feel free to view more of my recent work from previous months and/or contact me to schedule a shoot.

What an incredible month! Though I’ve only lived here a very short time I’m not sure I’ll ever get over how beautiful East Tennessee is during the month of November!

I want to share some images from some of the real estate shoots I did during the month of November in Knoxville and surrounding areas. Whilst every professional real estate photographer has their own unique style and approach below is a sampling of some of my work so you have an idea of my style.

With over 11.3 million annual visitors the Smoky Mountains is one of America’s most popular vacation destinations. A perfect location to own a vacation rental property. With the advent of AirBnB, VRBO and other popular websites, vacation rentals have become extremely profitable and professional architectural photography plays a critical role.

As The Smokies have become more and more popular the competition in the vacation rental market has become fierce.  Investors in these properties will need to fight for every click, professional photography is no longer a way to get the edge but a necessary minimum requirement.

Whilst there are several local talented professional photographers in the area, few have the skill set required for architectural work. Hiring a photographer who specializes in family photos or landscape photography can be a costly mistake.

Understanding how to correctly market a vacation rental through photography is a specialized skill set. Having the fortune of spending the last decade plus photographing hotels around the country, I’ve had the opportunity to work directly with talented designers and marketing directors who are at the top of their game.

Taking this knowledge and with the benefit of photographing directly for AirBnB in the past, I can bring that specialized skill set required to create beautiful images that generate the “clicks” and interest needed to stay competitive in the vacation rental market here in East Tennessee.

Madisonville Tennessee Real Estate Photography for October 2019

As a professional real estate photographer, I can deliver high quality real estate pictures for my clients regardless of the weather, season or even time of day!

There are several benefits to replacing the sky for your real estate photos, and there are several reasons why you might want to consider it. Here are just a few common reasons why/when Realtors should consider utilizing a sky replacement for their listing.

Weather

Let’s face it, here in East Tennessee we don’t always have the luxury to wait around for beautiful blue skies with white puffy clouds. With Sky Replacement we can create an amazing image to market the home with regardless of what the weather is doing.

Generate more interest

Often times, with sky replacement we can create an image with more drama that a blank blue sky just doesn’t offer. Having an “eye catching” sky can compliment your listing and generate more clicks online, and more interest for your clients.

Create a wow factor for your clients

As a Realtor nothing authenticates you as a marketing expert to your clients more than stunning photos. Surprising your seller’s with a dramatic beautiful exterior front shot of their home.

Improve your brand

As a Realtor, homeowners expect a lot out of you. One of the many expectations homeowners have for their real estate agent is that their Realtor is an expert at marketing. What are you selling? Are you creating the right mood? When the public views your listings are they receiving the right message regarding your marketing abilities? Utilizing sky replacement shows you care about showcasing their property at it’s best and give even the smallest details your full attention.

Sky replacement is just one another service I offer to my clients to create stunning images that get results. Please feel free to view all my packages/pricing and add-on services on my real estate photography page here. Also feel free to take a look at my portfolio here. I would love to earn your business! Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to book a shoot.

By far, this is the coolest AirBnB I’ve photographed in North Carolina. Every kid dreams of an awesome tree house. Now that I’m an adult, this truly is a romantic tree house with all the luxuries of a hotel suite. This place fulfills that childhood fantasy of being in your own clubhouse while offering enough privacy in the thick woods of North Carolina to literally shower outside (the shower is on the outside of the clubhouse).

Matter of fact, the thick woods offer so much privacy, I couldn’t get a decent shot of the backside of the tree house. Though it’s a fairly long walkway before you get to the tree house itself, the pathway is filled with beautiful lighting…

When you finally arrive, the excitement builds as you notice the bridge leading into the tree house. The craftsmanship that went into this project is stunning!

Standing outside the only thought running through your head is… What’s inside???? But walking in makes you feel as though you’ve walked through a portal, the luxury and modern design of the interior is NOT what you would expect.

Walking in you’re immediately rewarded with amazing views of the thick woods this location has to offer mixed with a high definition television and electric fireplace.

By far, this is the most luxurious tree house I’ve personally been in and the subtle artwork and decor perfectly compliments without distracting the eye from where you are.

After taking a quick look around you’ll immediately notice one of the most comfortable beds I’ve slept in on the road in a very, very long time! In fact, I can honestly say that I slept better in this bed than I did in my luxury suite at Caesar’s Place!

Adjacent to the bed is a wonderful sitting area where you can literally take in the luxury of the interior and the absolute beauty the exterior has to offer.

Relaxing on the couch while enjoying the warmth of the fireplace, the background noise of the television and the breathtaking view was…. heavenly…

Oh! Did I mention there was a kitchen area?

Stepping outside….

The back deck offers privacy, views and the calming sound of nature.

This brings us to the shower, though it’s not winter… the idea of taking a hot shower with snow on the ground in this shower sounds… awesome!

But this small tree house has even more to offer, downstairs….

Below the tree house is an amazing retreat…

If you would like to book this AMAZING experience you can view it on AirBnB’s website here: https://abnb.me/qhbQxPvsD0 This is a “must-do” if you are visiting Asheville NC or the surrounding area.

Below is a few of my favorite shoots from this last month. I like to update my website with my recent work at least once a month so you have an idea of what to expect when you hire me to photograph your property. I always say that as a photographer, your only has good as your last image. Every photographer has their own unique style and approach, if you like my style I would love to earn your business!

Townsend Real Estate Aerial Photo for September 2019

As a real estate photographer I often come across some really cool and unique spaces during my day. I thought I would be fun to start to highlight some of these unique rooms and properties in a blog series.

The first space I’m excited to highlight is from a photo shoot I did downtown Asheville North Carolina. Though I mainly photograph in the greater Knoxville Tennessee area, Asheville is just a couple hours east of here.

The design and layout of the room very fun and playful. With bright popping colors, antiques and miss matching dinnerware there’s a lot of personality displayed in this small space.

In fact, each space in the house had it’s own unique flare and style to it.  As soon as you walk in the door a quick look around will confirm that the home-owner has a fun and wonderful personality and is full of artistic creativity.

Continuing with the miss match theme, it’s no surprise that the bedroom has it’s own separate characteristic. Going with a bright green that would take a lot of guts to choose whilst standing in Home Depot, the room smacks you in the face when you first walk in…

I’m definitely envious… My house is extremely modern with light gray walls and little no to wall art. My wife would never allow me to be this daring and bold… but I sure did enjoy photographing this older home.

Frequently Asked Questions.

How long does the photoshoot take?

Depending on the size of the property it could take from thirty minutes to a couple hours. My average 3 Bedroom, 2 Bathrooms, 2000 Sq Ft real estate photo shoot will be around 45 minutes to an hour.

When and how do I get my property images?

I offer a 24 hour turn around on all real estate shoots. The vast majority of the time you’ll receive your images in the same evening of the day of the shoot. I email a dropbox link to you where you can easily save and download the images.

How do I pay you?

I accept cash, checks and all major credit cards. The majority of my clients are emailed an invoice after the shoot where they can securely pay it online.

Do I have to be there during the shoot?

No. I can meet directly with your clients or simply do the shoot solo. I just need access to the property.

Do you have Supra access?

No. I know this can be a slight inconvenience however, on the bright side you can rest assured that I’m not a licensed competitor. My passion is photography and I have no interest in getting licensed and becoming a board member so I can have a Supra key.

What is your cancellation policy?

I do not have one. I’ve been working in the real estate industry my entire adult life and know how some things just fall apart. It’s never an issue if you need to cancel at the last minute regardless of the issue.

Do you charge a traveling fee?

There is no traveling fee for any shoot located inside the Knox County area. This also includes several areas just outside of the Knox County line. View my Travel Fee Schedule for a complete list.
