Virtual Staging

To complement the architectural and real estate photography that I provide, I also offer virtual staging services. Virtual staging allows me to digitally add furniture and decor elements to a photo of an existing room. Results I provide look authentic and compare with physical staging. Use of lighting, shadows and subtle placement elements means that it is often difficult to tell the difference between what is real and what is digitally staged.

Living Rooms

Choose a traditional or more modern and contemporary look. Define whether you want couches or a sectional, whether the room includes an entertainment area and what style of decor (artwork or decorative touches) you want. Or leave it to us to design the room based on our experience.

Bedrooms

Do you want a master bedroom, a kids or teenager’s room, or a guest room.  Each one brings a different appearance and many rooms lend themselves perfectly to one style or another. Let us help you determine whether you want a cozy and relaxing style or a high end luxurious finish.

Additional Rooms

Many houses now have additional rooms that can lend themselves to different uses.  Do you want a dining room, a media room, an office or a flexible space that can be used as a games area or a gym.  If you want to market a space for different uses, let us stage it with a variety of options.

Pro’s & Con’s Of Virtual Staging

Benefits Of Virtual Staging

  • A staged interior can be significantly more appealing than a photo of an empty room

  • It is simple to produce a high quality series of virtually staged photos from a simple briefing of what you are looking for in terms of room types and styles

  • A staged room can show the potential for different spaces

  • A single space can be staged in different ways to show different options

  • The time and cost of providing a virtually staged interior is significantly quicker and cheaper than physical staging

Considerations With Virtual Staging

  • If a potential client is attracted to a property by a series of virtually staged interiors, you will need to manage their expectations when coming to view the actual property

  • If a large number of adjustments need to be made to staged images, the time and cost involved can increase.

Pricing & Considerations

  • Pricing starts from $80 per image for a simple room

  • Complex rooms (i.e. large open plan rooms with multiple spaces) can cost up to $120 per image

  • Additional angles of the same room using the same staging can typically be provided for the cost of a simple room

  • Any additional revisions are charged at my regular hourly rate of $120 per hour

  • All pricing is for virtual staging services and is in addition to the cost of capturing the original image(s)

  • All photos to be staged must have been captured by Best Impressions Photography

  • The best results will be achieved when I know you require virtual staged images prior to the photoshoot
