In real estate photography, the use of a drone can be advantageous for low altitude shots. It can be used to take photos of the property from different angles and heights, which can give potential buyers a better sense of the space. Additionally, drones can help to capture images that are otherwise difficult to get with a traditional camera. This type of photography can be especially helpful in showcasing features of a home that might otherwise be missed.
For the purpose of this discussion, low altitude is defined as any height below 50 feet. The definition of a standard configuration is a DSLR Camera on a tripod. Altitude means distance from the ground level.
Overcome Changes in Elevation
Capturing real estate photos from low altitudes using a drone is becoming increasingly popular, but one of the tricky obstacles in using a standard configuration is dealing with changes in elevations on a property. Even a minor difference in elevation can be problematic when it comes to capturing images with a standard configuration. The most vivid illustration of this would be a house situated at the top of an incline that is too steep to allow enough space in front for capturing its entirety. As an example, let’s consider a property with the house elevated and the photographer seeking to capture a stunning image of the deck in back. Photographers everywhere can now overcome the struggles of working with varying and difficult elevations, thanks to utilizing drones!
Find the Perfect Angle
Everyone knows that the perfect angle can make a real estate photo pop. With drones now available to capture more complicated and creative shots, photographers are finding the perfect angle with ease. Instead of using the standard configuration, drones allow photographers to hover above their subject and experiment with different angles while catching every detail they need – from dramatic aerial shots to ground-level perspectives. Drone photography makes it easier than ever for real estate photographers to find the perfect angle that captures all the must-have details in an exciting, unique shot.
Overcome Obstacles blocking the view.
Using a Drone instead of the standard configuration in Real Estate Photography can be an effective way to overcome obstacles that may block the view. Benefits of utilizing this technology include being able to easily move around buildings, trees and utility poles, as well as other large objects that have the potential to obstruct the shot.
Overcome glare from the sun and sunspots.
Utilizing drone technology for real estate photography is a great way to overcome the problem of glare from the sun and sunspots. By maintaining the drone at a low altitude, photographers can adjust camera angles and reposition it with ease – allowing them to minimize any direct sunlight, glare, sunspots, or reflection that may be present. This enables them to capture breathtaking images even in difficult lighting conditions. In short, drones provide an invaluable tool to photographers who need to overcome glare from the sun and sunspots whilst shooting real estate photography.
In conclusion, Drones are a fantastic tool for low altitude real estate photography, allowing a photographer to get the perfect shot from any angle and overcome obstacles that would otherwise block the perfect photo. With a drone, a photographer can easily find the perfect angle and take photos that would otherwise be impossible to get.
As usual, all safety measures, Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations and weather events must be respected at any elevation.
