A few things to think about before we photograph your listing...
We service Boulder and the surrounding area, including the mountains.
The spaces to be photographed must be clean.
We will not move or touch anything in the home, especially if it is still owner or renter occupied.
Photos turn out best when all of the lights are on, and window covering are completely open.
Please remove all cars from the driveway and in front of the house.
We shoot in Cinematic (Horizontal) mode by default.
Let us know in advance if you want your videos shot in VERTICAL MODE.
