The best package depends on the size of your property and what you want to achieve with the photos.

• Essential Listing - HDR Blend
  High quality images that present your property clearly and professionally. Ideal for small cottages, 1 to 2 bedroom holiday homes, or clients who want simple and effective photography. HDR blending brightens rooms and balances light and shadow to give a clean and natural view of your space.

• Signature Coverage - HDR Blend
  Builds on the Essential Listing with more images and full interior and exterior coverage. Ideal for 2 to 4 bedroom properties or clients who want a more complete presentation of their property. HDR blending ensures rooms appear bright and balanced while capturing all key spaces clearly.

Using professional lighting and advanced techniques, these images capture accurate colours, refined detail, and beautifully balanced interiors. Ideal for larger or luxury properties that need to make a strong and lasting impression.

I’m happy to advise which package suits your property best and ensure you get the results you need.

  For an explanation of the difference between HDR blended images and Flambient images, please see the next the FAQ question: “What are HDR blended images and Flambient images?

HDR blended images, used in the Essential Listing and Signature Coverage packages, combine multiple exposures of the same scene to brighten rooms and capture details, producing clear, professional photographs. They are ideal for smaller or medium-sized properties, giving a polished look efficiently, though colours may not be perfectly true to life.

Flambient images, used in the Showcase Finish package, blend professional flash lighting with ambient (natural) light to produce crisp, colour-accurate photographs. This technique requires extra time on location, as I walk through each room taking multiple flash exposures of the same composition to ensure every corner of the room is correctly balanced for light. These images are then blended together in post-production. The result is a highly accurate representation of paint colours, furniture, fabrics, and décor, making it perfect for premium or high-end properties where precise presentation is essential.

Both techniques produce professional images, but Flambient is a premium approach, involving more time and careful attention to detail to ensure your property is showcased at its absolute best.

I cover the entire Scottish Highlands. For longer journeys, clients may be asked to contribute to travel expenses, which I always communicate upfront. There are no hidden charges or extra fees.

While I’m happy to make small adjustments on the day, the property should be clean and styled appropriately before I arrive.

If you’d like professional advice on preparing your property, I can recommend Helen Longmuir, an experienced interior designer and colour consultant working across the Scottish Highlands. You can see her work at helenlongmuir.co.uk

If the weather decides to be typically Highland on the day of your shoot, don’t worry, I’m happy to reschedule to the next available date. That said, as a professional photographer, I use expert editing and professional lighting equipment to make sure your photos are bright, well-lit, and appealing, even on the most dreary days. Scottish weather won’t stand in the way of great shots!
