High-End HDR Real Estate Photo Editing

Don't put all your eggs in 1 basket. Bitcoin will always be around because of the coin exchanges and it's own blockchain. Given.. I saw a recommendation about Mr Nicholas, I found so many people showing accolades to a man named Mr Nicholas who has made a great impact to so many young crypto investors since last year. Some said he has the best strategy to trade bitcoin, I was tired of Gdax and Binance small profits I was getting, so I reached out to him and he gave me the best tips to excel in the world of crypto. Now I don't just Hodlin, I make more gains, after three weeks I boast of increasing my bitcoin from 2BTC to 7.04BTC, all Thanks to Mr Nicholas Myron Almighty formula for trading, you all can reach out to him . @nicholas__fxtrade on Instagram

I have always been a keen subscriber to this channel mate, i admire how factual you put out your messages. Crypto currencies continue to play a commanding role in the digital market and they are not looking to slow down soonest. Investors are looking to a bullish move so as to earn from hoarding, while traders are earning from price movements. Trading has always been more profitable means of earning, this has been a major step for me, I have found a crypto guide is NICHOLAS MYRON and his signals are top notch. I must say, I haven’t seen any service as his, I made over 15 Btc within 5 weeks, and this was done solely from my daily trade sessions on my live trading account, trading from my experience is the most lucrative opportunity crypto offers yet, every crypto trader should learn the art and utilize its gains.NICHOLAS can be reached on Instagram @nicholas__fxtrade .

With normal HDR you cannot finetune the different kinds of color casts that are present on walls and furniture pieces like he does in this video by hand painting and masking. The process he does is time consuming but the benefits are obvious.

Yet another banger. ✌️❤️ Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@mediamannaman]

You are amazing! I have to confess, I've been working on these editing skills on and off for a few years and it's just not my thing. I don't enjoy the process and I'm really slow (even if I take shortcuts). Using a polygonal selection tool makes my eyes cross and fingers cramp. Doing all of this for 25 photos per property would take me hours and drive me into the ground. I found an editing service that can merge/edit my photos for about $1.50 apiece. They do fantastic work, on time, are they are great to work with. For me, it's worth it. I'm glad that I understand the process, but I'm gonna jump ship, farm this out, and focus on the stuff I do well.

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

Nothing wrong with that! It’s important to understand it though I think and know how to do it in a pinch

Hi Mike. Longtime Flambient shooter here who has moved over to shooting brackets and sending them out to an editor. I am now wanting to learn to do quality editing from brackets myself. Great video here! Quick question for you... How do you handle mini-blinds? Do you really select each individual blind like you did the divisions in your window in this video example? If so, I'll be pulling every miniblind up before I shoot now! Haha! Thank you!

[@fpvunbox5148]

out of curiosity y the switch?

[@spacegazr]

@@fpvunbox5148 Efficiency. I will still do flambient for high end homes, but the amount of time saved with quality exposure blending more than makes financial sense.... And very very few Realtors can tell the difference, let alone care.

So did you get good with HDR blending, has it been faster for you? This video makes it seem far more time consuming than how long it takes me to process a flambient image!

[@darianrundallmedia1305]

@@DavidPotter85 I feel like flambient takes more time up front but faster in post. Things like mini blinds are not a problem. In the right room you can get very close to finished image with just one exposure.

[@jg4816]

I have watched a ton of your videos and for me its you and Nathan Cool as the top guys on this topic. I am extremely grateful for these videos. I have learned a ton from you. My biggest question/comment is your out-of-camera pictures have far less cast on them than mine. They always look so good and you get a lot of your hand blended HDR shots to look extremely similar to flambient. Is the Sony camera that much better for real estate? I use a Canon r5 with an rf15-35 and my colors are always a long way from the flambient images color-wise, much more so than these images, pre-edit.

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

Thanks! There’s a lot of factors involved. Mainly the lighting situation in the house. If it’s well lit then you’ll have a much better starting point with the ambient brackets then in a poorly lit room for sure. I can’t really speak to the difference between canon and Sony. That would be a great test to do though! If I can get my hands on a canon I will make that video.

[@little1400]

Mike, your videos are great. I am glad to see hand blended HDR. That said, how is using flash , with so much less editing not easier?

Hey Mike, thanks for these tutorials! Question though... This seems much more time consuming and tedious than using the flambient technique, and I believe in another video you illustrated that flambient yields superior results. So why would you use this method in actual practice?

[@ClayStation02]

Bump! Please tell us lol

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

Flambient is more time consuming to shoot though. This method yields a similar level of quality I think to flambient albeit somewhat different of a look.

[@JonathanAyers]

@Josh Dial adding a flash to my shooting maybe adds 5 minutes to the entire shoot. So, I would disagree that it takes longer to shoot with the idea that it takes longer overall.

[@AM0VS3S]

Hi Mike! Thank you again for the wealth of knowledge you provide with these videos. I had a couple of questions, what size do you export images out of lightroom? I realized if I limit the size too much it decreases the quality of the picture by creating visible noise on the walls. What size do you suggest without sacrificing image quality and still having it post ready for the agent? Also once I am finished editing in photoshop, the finished .tif image in lightroom becomes over 400mb when I started with five 35mb ARW images in the first place. Is there a reason for this?

[@wellsy4537]

[@shelbylbennett]

Hi there- After you've lasso'd out your ceiling, it changes your ceiling lights to a more "cool" color. What do you recommend doing for hanging lights/lights underneath kitchen cabinets that are warmer in tone? Do you usually touch back in your ceiling lights so they're more orange OR do you fix the orange lights so they're more cool? In the image I'm using, I'm also am having some orange light casting on the walls and kitchen counter. It looks a little strange to have two different color temperatures but I'm not sure what direction to go (cool vs warm). I hope that makes sense! Thanks for any tips. Great video.

Thanks Awesome job I like the technique. the selections look very labour intensive I use the quick selection tool to select the white bits and then clean up with other tools instead of meticulous paths. As it is an adjustment layer non destructive.

You edited this exactly how I edit. I use the lasso to select a lot but it seems like your brush is picking up on the edges when you paint in. My brush doesn’t do that good. Is there a setting for that?

No, no setting for picking up edges. I just adjust my brushes hardness settings depending on what I’m doing.

@@InsideRealEstatePhotography damn! 🤷

[@davidyancey4555]

Hey! Would you tend to do this for every photo you took in the house? I feel like that takes forever! Or do you only do this much detail for a few key shots, and HDR blend the rest? or maybe this is just a high paying job and you're doing every photo perfectly. idk!

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

Yes, all the photos would be edited in this manner. As I said in the video, for I was just trying to take it slow for teaching purposes to illustrate the process and make it easy for people understand. Usually it would go quicker and I would use photoshop actions and things like that to speed up the process. Some shots don’t have windows in them either so those go quick. That said, it is a longer and more involved process than merging your images for sure but the result is significantly better in my opinion. Yes, you would have to decide if what you’re getting paid justifies it or not.

[@matt.banton]

It is a great video, but yes, very time consuming. Using lights, as he mention in later comments, cut down the editing process massively. Look up the 'flambient' method.

Amazing tutorial, I work with high ends properties in my area and use HDR bracketing technic but this hand blending method is by far better.

What would you recommend for when you are cleaning up the windows, when you do not have white trim but you have wood or metal?

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

When it’s not white trim it’s not as big of an issue so typically I don’t do much in those scenarios.

[@gabrielladesantis3210]

@@InsideRealEstatePhotography ok, I am having the issue of when bracketing the image from the less exposed photo that I get this black Lin e running around some parts of the windows. Do you know how to prevent this?

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

@@gabrielladesantis3210 hmm I’m sorry, I don’t know what might be causing that!

I can't imagine how much you'd have to charge a client to make editing this way viable. at 20 min per photograph, a typical 32 pic set i'd have to charge $1500 a listing to make as much as I make now using aurora hdr. I have no idea how this could be profitable i don't know any agents that are paying 1500 for 32 pictures.

[@homewardboundphotos]

the end result isn't even any better then aurora tbh.

Amazing, thank you! We were just doing HDR merge before in lightroom CC, desaturating yellow tones, then brushing back in colours. If we needed window pulls we would send to a third-party but the photos always came back terrible. This has really helped! From a business stand point, we charge $149 CAD for unlimited photos, but I feel like we should be charging more for this quality of image as it takes longer to edit. Perhaps $149 and 20-25 images. The issue is, realtors don't want to pay more that the $149 lol! Out of curiosity, what would you recommend charging for this quality of photo? Thanks in advance, and thanks for this video!

Buy some Godox/Flashpoint lights and triggers and learn the flash-ambient (flambient) method. While this video is useful and instructional, you will go crazy trying to edit photographs this way.

[@FlashOnTwos]

I honestly can't see how ANYONE would charge less than $400 for a "standard' level of realty photography work. So many photographers out there trying to get a piece of the pie by charging next to nothing is making this market impossible to stay in. It's a shame. Then the amount of time that this person is taking to edit a single image is astounding. Unless a home is in the millions, I couldn't see how anyone would charge less than $2,000 to edit all of their images in this way.

[@joshmcdzz6925]

It's photographers like you that mess up the market and make the industry cheapskate.. $149 for unlimited photos... come on! are you hustling or doing some charitable deeds for peanuts?

[@The_Proper_Salute]

This is great, but I don’t get the “edit as layers in photoshop” option when right clicking. Any idea as to why? Maybe a different version?

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

I’m using Lightroom classic. I believe if you are using the cloud version it doesn’t not have that option.

[@gabrielladesantis3210]

I had a problem with Lightroom classic to open as layers in photoshop. I reached out to adobe creative cloud, let them have access to my computer via screen share and they fixed the bugs

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

@@gabrielladesantis3210 yeah, definitely have heard people having issues with that function.

[@TheDealbroker]

Is there anyway to speed this proces up? like 30 min for a window is not doable cost wise :( would take me 18 hours for every house :P

[@rajbrar9358]

Whats the best focal length for inside real estate ?

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

My preference is 16-35mm lens on full frame camera

[@jugodenaranja2010]

After you finished touching the whites you merged all those layers together. have you ever regretted doing this? Same some do with portrait retouch to jump to the next step. I tend to keep everything there just in case, but obviously it ends being a huge file abandoned in a hard drive hah

[@InsideRealEstatePhotography]

I hear you! For this type of work I don’t get overly concerned with it. Editing a whole shoot of like 30 photos just churn on through haha.

[@davidR9410]

Great video
