The BEST in the biz! Being a former pro photographer, quality is SUPER important to me. Dan & his crew are the best!
Beautiful photos; really showcased the house and highlighted the best features! Quick turnaround and great job!
Dan was recommended to me by another Agent in my office... He did a fantastic job, was friendly, and the photos were amazing! I've already scheduled another listing with him.

Real estate photography FAQs
How do I book real estate photography in Minneapolis or the Twin Cities?
Choose your services and an available time on the booking page. Photos, drone, floor plans, video, or a 3D tour—we can coordinate the visit together. Not sure what the listing needs? Ask us first. You don't need a fully formed media strategy to say hello.
How much does real estate photography cost in the Twin Cities?
Listing photos start at $180, with pricing based on home size—not a photo-count cap. See our posted prices and Twin Cities price comparison. Need only photos? A la carte is welcome. Adding other media? The pricing page's “What a package saves” cards show the combinations and their savings against the published market comparisons.
How fast will I receive my listing photos?
Next-morning photo delivery is included. You'll receive edited, listing-ready images, not a folder of homework. If your launch needs them sooner, same-day delivery is a $75 add-on, with no shoot-time cutoff.
How long does a real estate photo shoot take?
When the home is prepped and ready, plan on about 30 minutes for photos, plus 10 minutes for drone, 15 minutes for a floor plan, or 30 minutes for Matterport. Add-ons add time, and the home still needs to be ready when we arrive. The prep checklist helps keep the visit moving. Tell us about a tight access window when you book.
Do I need to be at the property? Can you use a Supra lockbox?
Only if you'd like to be there. We're Supra capable. A lockbox, door code, or garage code works too. Add access details when you book. We'll switch off the lights and lock up when we leave—one less trip for you between showings.
How should sellers prepare a home for listing photos?
Lights on, blinds open, counters clear, cars out of the driveway, and pets out of the frame. Send the seller our listing photo prep checklist—it's ready to forward. The goal is showing-ready, not “nobody has ever lived here.” A little prep makes every photo, video, and tour work harder.
What happens if it rains or snows on photo day?
Minnesota weather does enjoy a plot twist. We shoot year-round, and blue skies are guaranteed in every photo with sky in it. If conditions call for moving the shoot, you can reschedule from your original confirmation email. No need to wait on us, and there's no fee. Drone flights still need safe weather and permitted airspace. Editing a blue sky doesn't make high winds flyable.
Is there a fee to reschedule or cancel a listing shoot?
No. There's no fee to reschedule or cancel. You can move the appointment from your original confirmation email, with no need to wait on us. If the cleaners need more time, the sellers' plans change, or the forecast gets ambitious, let us know and we'll help.
