Hi Rick,
thanks for the quick reply. I see what you mean with sellability. I guess when we've done our best in tidying up, cleaning, etc, it's the ability to find that selling composition is what separates the good and the so-so RE photographer. Well, i guess my next question is, whose job is it to do the styling? the photographer or the agent/owner? is our job just pressing the shutter? my argument is, no, a RE photographer's job is not just to press the shutter, but to have a say when something's not right in the frame that s/he feels wouldnt help selling the property. however, if s/he does this, s/he might need to do the styling, which translates to more time and money that they should charge, but in the cut-throat RE world where it's gone down so cheap, it doesnt translate well and become either an added value service (ie: free service) or couldn't be bothered with styling and just press the shutter.
also, say i've grown out of taking photos of my house's interior and ready to take on more challenges, what can i do next? say for portfolio purposes, should i ask to take photos of my friends' houses?
sorry if i sound like i want to get free tutoring on how to start becoming a RE photographer (but i do...
), it's just im seriously thinking but i have no one to ask in my circle of friends and i have lots of questions.
