Berkeley
Real Estate Photography
Berkeley is a city of distinct neighborhoods — Craftsman bungalows in Elmwood, hillside homes with bay views above the campus, denser blocks near downtown. UC Berkeley shapes a lot of the city's character, and I adjust my approach neighborhood by neighborhood rather than treating every Berkeley listing the same way.
Services for Berkeley listings, with next-day delivery on most projects:
- HDR Photography: Detailed images that highlight architectural character.
- Video Tours: Walkthroughs suited to older, layered floor plans.
- Drone Photo & Video: Great for hillside views and lot context.
- Matterport 3D Tours: A thorough self-guided walkthrough.
- Floor Plans: Clear layouts for often-unconventional homes.
Berkeley buyers tend to be detail-oriented and design-conscious, and the housing stock here rewards that attention — original woodwork, built-ins, thoughtful additions. I shoot slowly and carefully on these listings so the craftsmanship actually reads in the photos.
Walkability, access to the hills, and proximity to campus all shape why people choose a specific part of Berkeley. I try to show that context — a short walk to Fourth Street's shops, a view from a hillside deck, the kind of porch that fits Berkeley's front-yard culture.
Berkeley's housing stock is genuinely varied, so photos need to work hard to communicate what makes each specific home and block distinct. I focus on capturing real character rather than a generic "real estate" look that could apply anywhere.
