- If you're thinking about being, or staying on as a real estate photographer, I'd like to share some things to consider that could help you make that decision. Below are pertinent links mentioned in the video:

I don't know if I SHOULD, but you make it look enjoyable enough to make it a hobby - at least.
With the support of my boyfriend, I was able to leave my 15 year job as a retail pharmacist to pursue starting my own virtual tour business. I am so glad that I did. I’ve purchased two of your books so far and they have been very helpful. My business is just starting to take off and I know it will continually get better with more work I put in to enhance my skills. Thank you for creating those books and always sharing great knowledge with us. ❤️
Hell yeah Nathan. For the record I watch all your videos start to finish lol. Thanks for all the great content; I just did my first shoot last weekend, real pleased with the results!
Thanks for this. I’m considering making the change in careers to RE photography and had these exact same concerns. As a long time graphic designer, I’ve learned many skills (photography, photo editing, composition, video editing AND I have a Part 107 drone license) that I think would be of tremendous benefit.
Nathan -- simply a BIG thank you for your encouragement, knowledge and time
I'm also a mechanical engineer turned real estate photographer!
Thanks, Nathan, gave me a much-needed confidence booster. I have all your books - on Kindle and in print and they are indispensable. No padding, thoughtfully presented and a pleasure to read and to refer back to. Every success!
Nathan Cool is one of the biggest underrated teachers in our industry .
Thanks for this video really helpful in my making choices. Between going after a good regular job that I could probably make a good living doing and going after something that I have passion for
Glad it was helpful!
Just ordered four of your paperback books, thanks for the helpful info 👍🏻
Awesome! Thank you!
THX for the video!
I'm just starting to do photography my FULL time bussines and have lear a lot from You - and clients love the pictures made with the Flambient Technique! Now it's time to learn more and grab some book :)
Thank you Nathan… this is something we all, who are thinking of getting into REP, need. A great confidence boost.
Left a thumbs up for your books. Thanks a TON, Nathan!!
Thanks Nathan, your books are indeed a nice compliment and guide, I have them on my tablet easy to check when needed.
Another great video Nathan. Read your books at the start of my RE photo career. Since then, they have helped me build a side business that I honestly can't keep up with. Time to make some decisions on how to build the business further and possibly transition out of my main career (airline captain). Exciting to say the least.
Thank you Nathan, I have been taking things seriously in the past month and been really motivated to actually go for it in real estate photography! I have done some practice shoots for my portfolio, and now I am working on booking my first few gigs in this discipline. I hope I can get to the point you talked about where I have to decide between my day job and photography. I think I know which it will be!
Awesome as always. Actually it's a good pep talk. During our current lockdown I have been practicing 360 images, drone footage and just getting things like editing actions made up on PS and LR to make things faster. Practice works!. My last job was 14 images - 1hr on site, the owner was amazing and had followed the preparation guide suggested. Still a bit slow on the editing side but getting better. In the end the owner was very happy with the results.
Nathan............Simply the best!
Hey Nathan.. here's an idea.
How bout half an hr of editing in real time. No need to explain every click. Just general discussion of your thought processes. A few internals, and a few externals.
I'd like to see that.
This was incredibly helpful, Nathan! This helped ease a lot of my anxiety over (eventually) starting a RE photography business! PS your books have been very helpful, I think I have about 5 of them 😀
right before the pandemic i was about to go full time with events, portraits and weddings. then boom, the world came to a stand still. Pivoted to RE photography, cold called a bunch of realtors and built a portfolio by going to open houses. Yesterday i made $600...so yeah, im sticking around lol
Thanks Nathan Awesome Video Just starting but very Inspirational
So inspiring!
Hi mentor . You hit me hard with this one. I don't enjoy reading . I always excuse my self in to ... I like videos more.. my apologies, I promise you that I will read your manuals that I bought but never open.... Thanks for always help us to be better.
Real and helpful information, Nathan! Thank you for the guidance and inspiration!
Thanks Nathan. That was motivating! Needed that.
Very encouraging! Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Well said!
Great video.
I like your videos. They are very helpful as I am doing my research in this field.
I am interested in doing real estate photography as a brand new beginner. Waiting to purchase my phone, camera, and computer. Next I will practice and learn the basics of photography and lighting. (Such as your books) I will also need to learn how business works.
This is a new journey for me.
People really should buy your books if they’re interested in real estate photography. I have them and they’re truly excellent books. Any chance I can get you to disclose what kind of books you have in the pipeline? Cause I’m excited for sure! Lol. :)
Thank you as always Nathan!
Thanks! I'll keep you in suspense :) Stay tuned though, I think you'll like what's coming.
Well, it worked. The suspense is killing me! I can’t even think of a topic you haven’t really covered in your books yet so I can’t even guess lol. Unless it’s like “How to stage a home for real estate photography” haha! Can’t wait!
Fantastic video Nathan.
Thanks!
Thank you Santiago!
Great advice! But how do you handle a job where you know you can't do the home justice in the condition that it is in (clutter, damage, etc). Sure, you probably discuss this with the agent - but do you turn those jobs away since you'll need to spend a lot more time during the shoot to do the best you can? Do you have a video discussing these challenges? Thx!
I am having the same problem. I’ve had a couple of builders and agents that wanted pictures of houses that weren’t completed. Not even a driveway, steps, or power. Dirt on the floor and work equipment laying around. These were higher end houses too and it looked awful. Things are crazy.
Thanks! That's a bit off-topic for this video, and relates to safety and other issues as well. I talk about some of this in my business techniques book (link in description for the video). But it boils down to what you feel safe to shoot, and what you want to shoot. I shoot unfinished homes and construction sites, and dress appropriately, since this is a common request by builders (for before or in-process shots). If a home is unclean, then that too is in my business techniques book, in particular, when referring to checklists and the chapter on safety. You can see that info on my website as well. If you encounter a home that, for whatever reason you do not feel safe entering or setting up your gear, then kindly decline.
@@NathanCoolPhoto I plan to buy some of your books. Your videos have helped me a lot, so I look forward to learning even more from your books.
@@NathanCoolPhoto Thanks much for your explanation - I'll check out those books!
This video spoke to me directly, as I am transitioning into real-estate photography. I plan to upgrade from my d5200 to either a used Z6 or the Nikon D4 which I'm getting getting good price on that's the same price as the used z6. What can you recommend between the two? Also do I need a camera with dual memory card alots?
Since you are transitioning to real estate photography I'd recommend downloading at least e-book #1 (interiors) in my real estate photography series, which answers not just "what" but the "whys" behind gear choices (and more), and how to apply gear and skill for this particular genre. Here's a link to the series if you'd like to check that out: amzn.to/36nkZsO
@@NathanCoolPhoto thanks I will, your videos are very informative, keep up the great work. I must admit I was surprised with your selection of camera in one of your videos but I understand that you know your job and the tools required to get it done.
Don’t worry about the down votes! Your information is vital for ones wanting to learn this. I’ve recently started my business, and already have multiple calls a week :)
Hello Nathan,
Thank you for putting these videos together. I am interested in RE photography, and this video is helpful in motivating me to pursue my passion as a career. I have many questions, but was wondering how you present your screen when you’re doing a video. i.e. when you are showing how to edit a photo, only your screen is showing. How is this accomplished?
Thank you!
Ben
Thanks! Perhaps I should do a tutorial on making tutorials :)
My biggest problem is if one has a $1-2 million listing, which is the upper 5-10% of the market, that it is acceptable to photograph such property with a
Sounds like you need to change your client target marketing, here's a video on that which I think would help: ruclips.net/video/bKdgosTJQ7Q/видео.html

Used to cruise at about 25hrs a week.
