How to get into real estate photography

Real estate photography can be a highly viable career. In general, those who demonstrate quality work find a large market filled with agents seeking to accentuate their listings.

Though not mandatory, having the experience and accreditation can help you gain clients faster than through self-teaching alone. Because of that, consider your various educational options. Experience is what your clients are looking for, so anything you can display to your customers to demonstrate you know what you are doing and have the relevant experience or qualifications is going to go along way.

Attain The Appropriate Gear

Next, invest in the gear you need to accentuate photoshoot results. This would likely include your primary camera, a few different micro/macro lenses, an all-purpose lens, editing software, a drone, tripods, and lighting resources. This total can cost anywhere from $1,000 on the low side to a 5-digit number on the high side. Go as top tier as you can, the objective is to gain a fast ROI with high quality of work.
