Yeah, totally get it! That's the beauty of photography, everyone has their own tastes! For me personally, it's too much but toned down a bit is a bit more to my liking. Thanks for watching!
They definitely look the best! Just did one a few days ago for another luxury property. We offer conversions since realtors ask about them but I always do real ones for higher end property, just doesn’t compare! Thanks for watching
I believe I showcase how I edit a twilight photo in this video along with how I edit other RE photography! ruclips.net/video/FkW-xhL3Ggc/видео.htmlsi=YkJ9Y_69VuM-Vh3Q
Nice video! I’m new to the industry and just wonder how are you able to shoot both exterior and interior twilight photos in such short time frame? Thanks
Thanks! I don’t shoot interior photos at twilight time, just the exterior. I’ll typically arrive 1-2 hrs before sunset to do the regular photos, and finish with twilight shots. Thanks so much!
Yes, these were done 3 bracket HDR, 2 stops apart. If I don’t plan on keeping the sky or everything seems to be well exposed, I’ll simply use 1 exposure. Thanks for watching!
Andrei, how many times are you on site of the property with either the realtor or client(s) prior to, during, and after a photoshoot? For example: Do you meet with your clientele with a prepared outline of expectations such as clutter removal, absence of people, lights turned on, and/or others? How do you maximize your time while on site? For example: Do you find yourself reproducing the same shots for both stills and video, or do you just stick with whatever the client ordered in advance? I'm sorry to bogged you with so many questions my friend, it's just that time is of the essence and like every other profession, one just want to put out a quality production and then go home!
“Regular” listing are all tropically the same. Same shots, angles, composition, the way to set up the home, etc. So we send the agent a to do list of best practices ti get the home ready before we arrive. Only for higher end luxury lifestyle shoots do I meet in advance with them. But yes, I try to maximize my time and get everything ready in advance
Definitely low or the base ISO for your camera. But also to not have such an extremely long shutter speed, my camera has pretty good low light performance so I'll typically be at iso 400-1600. Thanks for watching !
Hey Timothy! Yes, I charge separately. I offer it as an add on, like drone photography! Lower end homes really don't benefit from twilight shoots. Most of the realtors I work with book twilights for their higher end properties. And if I offered it with every listing shoot, that'd be a lot of evening shoots. 😳 Haha thanks for watching!
Great tips! What are the settings you use for twilight... I know it depends of the situation/light... but more or less...? Also: you bracket them at all... or single shots...? thanks! ;0
Thanks so much! I typically start at iso 400, f/8, and shutter around 1/60ish or depending on the scene. I typically do 3 bracket photos for twilights. I also try for the overexposed shot to not have a super slow shutter because you’ll get motion blur in the trees. But if it looks like I’m capturing almost all of the information, then I’ll do a single shot too! Thanks for watching!
I typically deliver at least 4-5 twilight photos. Maybe 1-2 of the front, 1-2 of the back, and a detail shot or two since typically we do real twilights for homes with pools. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo bro when it gets really dark are we able to lower the aperture to f5 ? sometimes you get stuck late at night. Also everyone says to keep it at 8 or 9 but what about if you use an infinity lens and keep it at infiity then you can lower the aperture?
Do you use a tripod? For night shots I typically try to still keep it at f/6.3 and up, that way the edged are still sharp. If anything I'll also not let my shutter go down too slow and raise the iso a bit!
You're still talking about photos right? Asking since you're saying you have an fx3 and it's a cinema cam! but yeah typically for photos on a tripod, I want go slower than a second or two, but if there's not wind then I'll let the shutter be 5-7 sec long. But for video, I would film everything at night at 12,800 iso since that's the second native iso for that cam!
Hey man! Nope. If anything by the second or third set, the composition is better since I’m doing it again. Or if I think of new angles, I’ll try those too. Probably shoot 15-20 and deliver 3-5 or so. But I definitely only do 3 sets for bigger properties. Smaller ones I’ll do just 1 or 2. Thanks for watching man!
@@AndreiRestrepo wow. so some of your sets are not at full twilight?? I was trying to figure out how people were getting 5-10 shots. I did a twilight for my wife of our lanai and just kept camera set in one spot and did my brackets. It came out great, but I was only able to get the one shot.
@@AndreiRestrepo say sunset is 530pm, I typically will take a bracket at 5:25pm then one at 530pm and if house has landscape lights I will wait for them to come on or have seller turn them on and take a bracket with them. I wish you could attach images in here I could show you....
idk I personally love that sky swap you did in photoshop at 4:33. Something about it, most people don't realize its a swap, and they look TOP TIER
Yeah, totally get it! That's the beauty of photography, everyone has their own tastes! For me personally, it's too much but toned down a bit is a bit more to my liking. Thanks for watching!
Love that you do real twilight shots!
They definitely look the best! Just did one a few days ago for another luxury property. We offer conversions since realtors ask about them but I always do real ones for higher end property, just doesn’t compare! Thanks for watching
Great tips! Good call doing the Golden Hour DEETS and maximizing that golden hour light. My fave
My fav too ! Thanks for watching dooood 🤙🏻

Great stuff as always! Love these tips man I really appreciate it.
Thanks so much Trey! Appreciate it
Awesome video. The detail shots. Wow GREAT tip!
Thanks so much, glad you found it valuable!
Great video! Do you happen to have a tutorial on how you edit twilight photos??
I believe I showcase how I edit a twilight photo in this video along with how I edit other RE photography! ruclips.net/video/FkW-xhL3Ggc/видео.htmlsi=YkJ9Y_69VuM-Vh3Q
Love your work!

Would you suggest 3 bracket hdr. Or would 1 suffice
Yes, these were done 3 bracket HDR, 2 stops apart. If I don’t plan on keeping the sky or everything seems to be well exposed, I’ll simply use 1 exposure. Thanks for watching!

Great video! Maybe you mentionned it and I missed it, but you try to shoot at what ISO for these type of shooting? The lowest possible?
Definitely low or the base ISO for your camera. But also to not have such an extremely long shutter speed, my camera has pretty good low light performance so I'll typically be at iso 400-1600. Thanks for watching !
@@AndreiRestrepo perfect! We have the same set up, so I’ll try your recommendations. Thanks a lot!
Great video, thanks for the tips. Do you charge separately for the twilight shoot, or include it with the listing?
Hey Timothy! Yes, I charge separately. I offer it as an add on, like drone photography! Lower end homes really don't benefit from twilight shoots.

@@AndreiRestrepo thanks!
Great video thanks. Love your work. Can I ask if you shoot single exposures for all your shots or do you shoot 3 brackets? Thanks Bryan
Thanks so much! Yes, 3 bracket by 2 stops apart. Especially if I plan to include the sky. Thanks for watching!
Hello, when selling twilight photos how many of these do you recommend to deliver?
I typically deliver at least 4-5 twilight photos. Maybe 1-2 of the front, 1-2 of the back, and a detail shot or two since typically we do real twilights for homes with pools. Thanks for watching!
@@AndreiRestrepo thanks you so much for the advice! Great content
for detailed shots im guessing you dont do bracket exposures?
Correct! I just like to go handheld and taking single exposure shots of them!
@@AndreiRestrepo bro when it gets really dark are we able to lower the aperture to f5 ? sometimes you get stuck late at night. Also everyone says to keep it at 8 or 9 but what about if you use an infinity lens and keep it at infiity then you can lower the aperture?

@@AndreiRestrepo what is too low of a shutter? Ihave an fx3 with is the best for low light

Are you marking your spots for tripod? You said you’re getting three different shots at different times.
Hey man! Nope. If anything by the second or third set, the composition is better since I’m doing it again. Or if I think of new angles, I’ll try those too. Probably shoot 15-20 and deliver 3-5 or so. But I definitely only do 3 sets for bigger properties. Smaller ones I’ll do just 1 or 2. Thanks for watching man!

Curious on what you mean by “not full twilight” ?? 🤔

Ahh I see. Makes sense! Yeah I know. That would be helpful
