Scott,I am not an OMG sort of person. But, holy crap, the first edition was extremely beneficial and full of lighting wisdom. The second edition has so many extra little pearls of knowledge I am very impressed. It is exactly the sort of information to help the real estate photographer make the next step into commercial architecture and interior design.
To be fair – you need more time at a shoot to practice the little “extra” details but I believethese will be come more intuitive and quicker to capture.I already give the RE agents better photographs than I charge for but practice makes perfect and I want my “next level” clients to be stoked. Thank you for sharing kind sir.

Several of the first edition chapters be significantly updated. It will have a completely new layout designed to work better than the existing layout on tablets. @Tyrone – You can shoot a house in an hour, but not at first. It takes time to train yourself to identify the best angles of a room and how to position your flashes. Overcoming crowded rooms and dark painted walls always slows me down. I average around 10 minutes/photo for furnished real estate and 6ish for vacant property.
I have been keeping track out my in/out times on my internal work order so I can keep tabs on what it is really taking me to deliver. I am still learning a lot from each shoot and I also spend some extra time ‘working’ a shot if I come across a new challenge like a large stained glass window or other unique bits of architecture. I tell the clients and homeowners that shooting takes between 1.5 and 2 hours for the average home. That leaves me some cushion if the homeowner or realtor is planning to leave at a set time. Going over is sometimes not an option.November 5th, 2013 at 7:28 am.
