Listing Views
Local Photographers in San Diego
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 30, 2015
“I have one word for Listing Views...WOW! Nick always goes above and beyond, and offers nothing but the best service! He is such a pleasure to work with, and any of my clients who have met him always comment on how polite and talented he is, and I couldn't agree with them more! His talent and skills behind the camera are something he has completely mastered. He sees things from a different perspective and it is shown through his unique angles and vibrant shots. I have been using Nick for over 5 years, and will continue to do so. Photos sell homes, and Nick's photos do that and more!”

“Michael Asgian is a consumate pro! He is not only a VERY GOOD photographer, he is also VERY GOOD at listening to his clients and goes beyond what is expected - for him there is no industry standard, only excellence! I hired Michael to take my real estate listing photos and not only were we exceedingly pleased, but our client was ecstatic with how her home looked for marketing it for sale! I would not hestitate to recommend Michael Asgian and Panostar Photography.”

If you're thinking of selling or renting your San Diego, CA house, hiring a home photographer can make a big difference between making money and just breaking even. Think about when you look at photos of homes online: If the lighting is terrible, the quality is poor and the listing provides very few photos, don't you subconsciously associate these bad qualities with the homeowner or renter? A home photographer helps with those challenges.

What Is a Home Photographer?


A home photographer is trained to make your home look its best. If you are a design professional — an architect, an interior designer or a contractor, for example — consider hiring a photographer to capture your work to enhance your portfolio, and to attract and engage new clients. They understand what buyers and renters are looking for, and they have the equipment and editing skills to fulfill those expectations.

Professional home photographers vary quite widely in the services that they offer. Some photographers include home staging in their rate, some include editing and some want to come prior to the shoot date to set up shots. Others will not offer these services unless asked or will charge an additional rate. Make sure you ask the photographer beforehand what is included in the cost. If he or she does not offer everything you need, you might want to consider reaching out to other professionals to get the best finished product. Here are some related professionals and vendors to complement the work of photographers: Home Stagers, Interior Designers & Decorators, Architects & Building Designers, Real Estate Agents.

Before you call any potential photographers, make sure they have good references. Friends who've sold or rented homes before are great resources, as are local real estate agents. Look through each California photographer's online portfolio to make sure what you're looking for is being offered. Once you've done that, it's a good idea to walk around your home and write down exactly how many and what types of shots you'll need. Include any specifications you might have, such as angles, things to consider about your home’s San Diego, CA site, the time of day you think will be best and aspects of your home you want to highlight.

Questions to ask a home photographer:


  • Is photo editing included in your rate?
  • How long will it take for you to provide the photos?
  • Do you do home staging?
  • What happens if I don't like the first round of photos?
  • Do you offer consultations prior to the shoot?
