827 N. Sierra Bonita Ave.

Monday I worked with another new client Jeff Giordano from Keller Williams. He was wonderful, fun to work with and just let me loose on the house. It was a great house. Beautifully staged by Kelly Rollings at KLA Home Staging & Redesign. The house was ready to shoot...and perfectly ready for me to move in. I love this house. For more information take a look at the property website...www.827SierraBonita.com

In the mean time take a look at the virtual tour and photos...

4167 Baldwin Ave, Los Angeles

Last week I photographed for new client, Mary Cronin of Keller Williams. She and her trainee, Pier Moore, were great. They were so relaxed and outgoing, and just let me loose on the house.

Cute house with a great feel and a huge backyard! Click here to view the virtual tour. Take a look at the photos...

I love it...

I love it when a client calls to let me know that I single handedly sold a house for them. While I was photographing his own home that he was listing, Lior Kane told me that I had sold this house for him. I laughed when he said this. However, he said he wasn't kidding. The virtual tour that I had taken of the house had caught the eye of a couple in Los Angeles. Pasadena wasn't even an area that they had considered looking. Then they saw my virtual tour and immediately called. They were at the house for a viewing the next day and made an offer.

I have to admit I'm pretty happy. I know virtual tours are a really great tool, but that is such a great example of how they can work for you.

Now the real question...where's my commission Lior?

Photography for Sale!

I've finally decided to put some of my travel photography up for sale. So I've opened up an Etsy shop! I'm pretty excited. So far all of the photography on there is from traveling...most of which many people have never even seen.

So keep an eye out because I'll be adding more and more photographs on there. There are even a few on there that I might order...cause I'm vain like that and I actually like some of my own work!

Spread the word people!

Rancho Dr., Ojai

I love when Vivienne Moody from Coldwell Banker calls me for photo shoots. She always has great houses to photograph. Of course she's in Ojai and it's always beautiful in Ojai! This house was at the top of a hill with wonderful views all around. One thing I have learned working with Vivienne...always wear tennis shoes. She loves her views and wants them photographed. However, she always is there with me hiking around trying to get the right shot. She's just one of those truly nice and caring people and I always love working with her. Take a look at the new property she's working on...

The Lost Files...

One of the things I do at the beginning of the year, is a lot of organization. During this time I have been finding some of my photo shoots that I haven't put online. I've decided to show you some.

Last May I photographed the Woodland Hills Holiday Inn. I was hired through a website designer who is redesigning their website. It was a long but great day. The staff was very accommodating and fun. The website designers were great to work with and had great ideas.

Other Types of Photography

I had the opportunity recently to photograph something other than Real Estate Photography or Virtual Tours. A friend of mine has recently gone into business for herself selling her own jewelry. I really love the jewelry and when she asked if I would photograph her jewelry line, I jumped at the chance.

I thought it would be really fun to try something different. I haven't been in the studio since school and have always enjoyed it. Well, I had a blast! Jewelry photography is definitely a different animal than real estate. It was a learning experience for sure. However, I'll do it again. It was a nice break from the norm and she's already told me that she has more to photograph. I'm up for it!

Property Rentals

I started out in this industry photographing apartments and rentals. I feel like that aspect of photography is something I know and really enjoy....I know there really isn't much difference. My real goal when I photograph a rental or a house for sale is to show the room size and the extras that make it special.

Pamela Rich from Condos LA gave me a call to photograph her house. I have been to her home before and just love it. It's a very young, fun house. Modern and just the right amount of space. They decided to rent out this home and move to the coast...I'm very envious!

Glendale Ranch House

Friday I photographed a house for my client Lior Kane with American Realty Centre. It's a beautiful little house in the Glendale hills. 2 Bedroom, 2 bathroom with beautiful built-ins and great details around. It really was a cozy home. Take a look at the virtual tour here...
