Featured Reviews for Local Photographers in Palo Alto

Agnieszka Jakubowicz PHOTOGRAPHY
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 10, 2015
“Agnieszka understood immediately that as the architect for the arch, I wanted to be involved with the initial viewpoints to be chosen to photograph the San Jose Little Italy Arch. She courteously allowed me to be with her during the photo session and discussed every angle, time of the day, better lighting and patiently she chose several very interesting views. Beyond that Agnieszka went to the site several other times to make sure she would capture the perfect illumination, the right car parked below it, changing colors due to the weather. Her dedicated professionalism then went on to show on the post-production phase, when she eliminated all the disturbing elements such as power lines, utilities in the way. All that with a very enthusiastic and proactive attitude, and very important for me, understanding of architecture. I am very happy with the resulting images.”
David Duncan Livingston
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 26, 2013
“Not only does David have more than two decades of photography experience, he also truly understands interior designers' needs and how to show off their work in the very best light. Additionally David is an absolute pleasure to work with. His easy-going disposition and supportive attitude makes what can be a hectic day into a more relaxed experience. And the results speak for themselves.”
Dennis Mayer - Photographer
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 8, 2012
“As a Real Estate professional who has been in the business for over 20 years, when I need a photographer for a home I am selling I always ask for Dennis. He goes "Above and Beyond!". Always going the extra mile, for perfect light, helicopter photos or nighttime shots. If I can't get Dennis, I wait til he is available. He is the best!”
Aerial Canvas
Local Photographers in Palo Alto

“Top-notch aerial videography and customer service. This company can help you create the content you need to help your business/product stand out and empower your brand resonate with your customers. Highly recommended!”
Barnes Photographics - Genia Barnes
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 13, 2014
“We have been using Barnes Photographics to shoot the after photos for our projects for over 2 years now. Her services are affordable and the quality is superb. We are are a high end Remodeling firm based in Santa Cruz and Genia has been willing to travel all over the County and into Saratoga and Los Gatos to shoot our projects. What I like in particular is when I get to the project I just lay her out, describe some of the before shot angles that I took so she can align for the after photos. I also describe any special features that I want her to capture. Then I leave her with the clients while I go on to other jobs. A typical photo shoot requires about 1 hour of time on site and about a week to get the photos back. I share them with the clients and the subcontractors that worked on the job and now I have clients and trade partners promoting our fine projects. It's a win win!

“Treve Johnson’s extensive professional experience of more than 40 years is apparent throughout the entire photography process.

mark pinkerton - vi360 photography
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 16, 2011
“Mark is an excellent architectural/real estate photographer. He does a fantastic job capturing all of the detail and quality we put into building our custom homes. His schedule is flexible and he is easy to work with, too. We at Custom Dreams in Real Estate highly recommend him!”
Susie Soleimani Photography
Local Photographers in Palo Alto
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 14, 2012
“Susie Soleimani is much more than a photographer, she's an artist. Susie doesn't take pictures, she creates spectacular images. Whether this is due to her knowledge of lighting, positioning of spaces, camera angles, or a combination of all the above, Susie takes what you would call a picture and transforms it to become almost 3 dimensional. Just check our Houzz Site where we give credit to Susie for her great work at our sales center. Susie is the best at what she does and the amazing quality of her work speaks for itself. We've worked with many photographers over the years, and Susie's ability to capture spaces always surpasses our expectations.”

If you're thinking of selling or renting your Palo Alto, 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 Palo Alto, 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?
