Rich Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 I've not posted on this thread for a while but I've just done an advert that has so many overexposed photos on it. If this isn't a good example of why you should get a professional to take the photos/process them, then I don't know what is. Yes I could sort them in photoshop but I don't have time to do that.

parthiban Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 It's shocking the number of agents that use iPhones and similar to take their marketing photos - you'd think they were a bunch of morons I know prices are crazy now but a 1 bed flat in E17 for £300k!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 Saw a house the other day where the photos were taken with a lens that makes things look bigger the closer they are - don't name of lens - anyway imagine the kitchen with the oven closest to you, it looked double width. The whole house looked out of perspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prices are crazy around that area, even more so in Chingford, Chigwell etc. How do they expect first time buyers to get on to the property ladder with prices like those. The photos in that example were actually taken with a Nikon L810 (Bridge Camera) looking at the EXIF data so just goes to show even with a decent camera people can still take crap photos. The house is overexposed and the sky is so blown it's white. If you look in the windows you can actually see the reflection shows it is blue. Here is a quick before and after I did with 5 minutes of photoshop. Saw a house the other day where the photos were taken with a lens that makes things look bigger the closer they are - don't name of lens - anyway imagine the kitchen with the oven closest to you, it looked double width. The whole house looked out of perspect. Could've been a really wide lens or a fisheye? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Posted May 27, 2015 Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 So are these pictures by the sellers/ owners? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2015 So are these pictures by the sellers/ owners? No by the estate agents (or people they give the work to), would you want to take your own photos if you were paying someone else to do it.

Rich Posted March 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2016 It's terrible, they didn't even open the curtains to let some light in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Maybe the view is pants...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 The agent who this photo belongs to have all their photos like this! Every week they advertise the same properties, these have been on for months and are in Harrow, which usually sell very quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Given the cost of the house it's hardly an inviting picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 I think it was getting on for £500k. They always seem to use interior photos for their advert, better off with the exterior if they can't take nice ones. They even use google street view photos!

Tony Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Reads as lazy as it gets to me.... If that were my house i would get another agent immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Same agent as above. Last week they used this photo, which TBH isn't that bad, the bin could've been moved though. This week they wanted to change it to this to start with! Then settled on this one with the roof cut off! The first one was much better, I don't understand their logic in changing it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parthiban Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 That is shocking! The garage photo is hilarious as a main photo - it's not really even good enough as a photo of the garage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMARTLY Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 Maybe a close up of the front door would have been better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Not a bad photo this time but a bizarre one! I actually like the B&W decor when the outside world looks colour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
