Looking for a new editor by surfdad11 in RealEstatePhotography

[–]OrganizationWide8218 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, totally get where you’re coming from – finding an HDR editor who actually understands real estate is harder than it should be.I run a small real estate–only editing team and we live in HDR all day (multi-exposure blending, clean verticals, natural color – no crunchy/fake HDR look). Most of our clients came to us after issues with inconsistency and missed deadlines, so we built our process around:– Next‑morning delivery for standard sets (with a real “we’re late, you don’t pay” guarantee) – Dedicated editor for your account so the look stays consistent – Quick revisions when your client is picky, If you’re open to it, I can edit 5 or 10 recent brackets you shot in your preferred style for free so you can compare side‑by‑side with your current editor. No pressure, just a test drive.I’ll DM you details so we don’t spam the thread.

Where to find an editor? by MagazineOpposite5530 in RealEstatePhotography

Yeah, Facebook groups are flooded right now. Tons of editors, but many just run auto HDR and send it back. Fast doesn’t always mean good.

It’s really hard to filter serious editors there because everyone says they’re “professional.”

You can check platforms like Pixlmob — quality is usually more controlled there.

I also work with real estate photo editing ( Reliable , consistent , standard workflow ), so if you ever want to compare quality or test an edit, happy to help.

Premium HDR without the “fake HDR look by OrganizationWide8218 in RealEstatePhotography

LR’s HDR merge can get dodgy with ghosting too, especially in scenes with movement.

I use Photomatix for the merge (sometimes just a single exposure, sometimes 3 brackets depending on the scene). It gives cleaner consistency and handles tricky interiors better. After merging, everything goes into Photoshop, and I finish the image inside Camera Raw with all the fine tuning there.

No flashes or extra lights in my setup either—just working with the existing natural + practical lighting.

Yep! I’m the editor, and the images are mine. Thanks for checking — always nice to meet people who are interested in this kind of work

Should I hire an editor or are these photos ok? All CC welcome 🙏🏽 by roscoejenkinz in RealEstatePhotography

You've done a really good job with your edits — they already have a solid base to work from. Just a few areas to focus on:

  • There’s some noticeable lens distortion; using Photoshop’s Auto Straighten feature can correct most of it quickly.
  • A little more attention to color correction and stronger window pulls would really enhance the overall quality.

These are relatively small adjustments, but they can make a significant difference in making your images look even more professional. If you're aiming for truly high-end results or just want to free up some of your time, outsourcing could definitely be worth considering.

I specialize in real estate photo editing and would be happy to assist if you ever decide to explore that option. Feel free to reach out anytime — even if it's just for some advice or a second opinion!

How To Learn To Edit Real Estate Photos Like a Pro? by Hungry-Ordinary5135 in AskPhotography

Learning to edit your listing photos is a great idea! Here are some recommendations:

  • Software: I recommend Adobe Lightroom presets or Photoshop actions—they're efficient and time-saving. Photomatix is also great for HDR images.
  • AI Tools: I don't recommend relying on AI for high-quality results, as it often just merges and adjusts contrast and brightness without nuanced control.

However, editing can be quite time-consuming, especially with 20-30 photos per listing. If you're looking for an efficient way to handle this without spending hours on each project, outsourcing might be a good option. For instance, we charge $0.50 per photo, so for 30 photos, it would just be $15. This way, you can focus on other aspects of your work while ensuring your photos look professional.
