St. Paul Real Estate Photography
St. Paul has some of the most distinctive homes in Minnesota, from Victorian mansions on Summit Avenue to warehouse lofts in Lowertown. BrightSpaces Photography photographs homes across St. Paul, the whole Twin Cities metro and western Wisconsin, with every photo edited by hand and delivered by the next morning.
Photographing St. Paul's Homes
Historic homes on Summit Avenue and the Hill
Summit Avenue's eastern end is part of the Historic Hill District, the largest concentration of 19th- and early 20th-century architecture in Minnesota. Many of these houses are full of woodwork and detail, so we light them carefully so dark wood shows its detail and rooms still feel bright.
Bungalows and Craftsman homes in Mac-Groveland
Around Macalester College, St. Thomas and Grand Avenue, many homes are bungalows and Craftsman-style houses built between about 1905 and 1930. We show off the built-ins, stained glass and front porches buyers love, and keep compact rooms looking true to size.
Highland Park, from classic homes to new construction
The former Ford plant site is becoming a new neighborhood, so new construction sits next to established streets. For new builds, pair photos with virtual staging (from $10 per photo) and a 2D floor plan (from $80).
Lofts and condos in Lowertown
Lowertown's old warehouses are now lofts with exposed brick, timber ceilings and big windows. We balance the light so the windows, the brick and the city view all show clearly, and we can include building amenities when the HOA allows it.

Every St. Paul Shoot Includes
Hand-edited, next-morning photos
Every image is hand edited, blue skies are guaranteed in every photo with sky in it, and photos are sized for the MLS, Zillow and social media. You also get a slideshow tour, property web pages and ready-to-post marketing ads.
Floor plans and 3D tours for historic homes
Older St. Paul homes often have back staircases, sunrooms, finished attics and additions that are hard to picture from photos alone. A 2D floor plan or a Matterport 3D tour shows buyers how the rooms connect before they visit.
St. Paul and the east metro
We also photograph homes in Roseville, Maplewood, Shoreview, White Bear Lake, Woodbury, Lake Elmo, Stillwater and Cottage Grove, and east across the St. Croix in Hudson, Wisconsin.

Drone photos $100, 2D floor plans from $80, virtual staging from $10 a photo, video tours from $275, Matterport 3D tours from $200, Same-Day delivery $75, and free virtual twilight on request.
