About Me

First of all, it's just me. I'm a one-man-show. If you schedule me, you get me. Good or bad. I don't have underlings who'll change every shoot.

I enjoy doing it. I really enjoy seeing the different houses and interacting with my clients.

Why photograph houses? Well, houses never ask to look thinner. Younger, yes; not thinner. Houses also never cry, never hit you with sticks, never throw up on you, never get angry because you didn't get a shot of their drunk uncle at the reception doing his flying squirrel impression.

I started doing this when we lived in Colorado and continued doing it when we moved back here in 2011. I'm originally from the Bay Area -- Belmont, if you know it -- and my dad still lives there.

Some other stuff about me...

- I'm very tall.
- I do have my Part 107 license from the FAA, so I'm allowed to do drone photography.
- I live in El Dorado Hills (don't be impressed: I live in the cheap seats).
- I married and we have one daughter who lives in Oregon.
- I went to the school with, I believe, the longest name: California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo.
- I use Sony cameras, Godox flashes, Samsung tablets, and Tums antacids.
- We are owned by a 22-pound rescue dog.
- No: I don't do weddings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Whether you're a new client or a returning one, I'm here to ensure your experience is seamless and informative.

What areas do you serve?

I'm based in El Dorado Hills (don't be impressed -- I live in the cheap seats) and will pretty much travel anywhere. That being said, there is a travel fee for anything more than 30 miles away. I've gone as far away as Truckee and Yuba City and done homes I can walk to. Generally I go from Sacramento to Pollock Pines, Lincoln to Jackson.

How long will a photography session take?

For photography usually I spit-ball 30-minutes for every 1,000 sq.ft. and that includes a floor-plan scan and, if needed, aerial photography. It usually takes less but there are times that things aren't ready.

When can I expect to receive my photos?

Photos will be delivered within 24 hours of completing photography. Usually the next morning. Video and virtually staged photos may take up to another 6-12 hours.

Do you offer virtual tours?

Yes, I offer a website and virtual tour option, complete with custom domain-name for your property. Please contact me for details.

Can I choose which photos to be edited?

No. I provide you, fully edited, with everything I shoot.

What should I do to prepare my property for a photography session?

Preparing your property for a photography session is key to achieving stunning visuals. Just ask and I'll provide you and your sellers with a complete document and checklist.

Can I reschedule my photography session if needed?

We understand that plans can change. If you need to reschedule, please contact us at least 48 hours in advance. We'll work with you to find a new time that suits your schedule, ensuring you receive the professional service you expect without any hassle. If you cancel with less than 48 hours notice there will be a change fee.

Do you provide image rights for the photographs taken?

Yes, upon completion of the photography session and full payment, we grant you full rights to use the images as you see fit. Whether for marketing materials, online listings, or print media, you have complete freedom to maximize your property’s exposure with the visuals we create.

How Many Photos Will I Get?

Every house is different, so this is hard to answer. An 1,800sq.ft. condo with no back yard is different than an 1,800sq.ft. house on 5 acres with a barn and RV parking.

You'll get enough.
