Services

One visit. Everything the listing needs.

Photography is the base. Video, tours, aerial and floor plans all come off the same appointment. On-site measuring is the one thing that sometimes needs a visit of its own — we will tell you up front when it does.

Photography

Photos back by noon the next day.

HDR interiors and exteriors, shot to hold the view through the windows instead of blowing it out.

  • 25 photos on Value Listing, 30 or more on every other package
  • Blue sky editing on every package
  • MLS-sized downloads alongside the full-resolution files
  • A dedicated property website, included on every package
  • Same-day delivery available for $49.99 when a listing has to go live

Video

From a quick walkthrough to a cinematic cut.

Video often comes back the next day now, and within 48 hours at the latest — worth knowing when you are timing a launch.

  • Basic walkthrough, $34.99. A clean pass through the home.
  • Walkthrough with aerial, $54.99. Adds the approach and the lot.
  • Cinematic, from $69.99. Paced and graded like a short film.
  • Cinematic with you on camera, from $99.99. Your intro, your sign-off.
  • Daylight to dusk, $29.99. The exterior shot turned to evening.
3D tours

Zillow 3D or Matterport?

The most common question we get. They are not the same product, and the right one depends on where your listings actually live.

 Zillow 3D TourMatterport
Where it livesEmbedded in your Zillow listingHosted independently, works anywhere
Interactive floor planYesYes
Dollhouse viewNoYes
Measuring tools inside the tourNoYes
Zillow "3D Home" tagYesNo
HostingNo separate fee3 months included, extendable to 12

Needs you to activate itYes — we auto-activate after 2 weeks if you have notNo
Packages that include itOpen House Zillow 3D, VIP Zillow 3D, Vacant HomeOpen House Matterport, VIP Matterport, Airbnb
Two things that trip people up. A Zillow 3D tour will not appear on your listing until it is activated from your own Zillow account — if you have not done it within two weeks, we activate it for you. And Matterport access ends when the property status flips to sold or off-market, even if the three months are not up.
Drone & aerial

The lot, the approach, the neighbourhood.

Aerial is included in the VIP packages and the Airbnb package, and can be added to anything else for $24.99.

  • Aerial stills, delivered next day with the rest of the photos
  • Property lines drawn on the aerial, $14.99 — the fastest way to show a buyer what they are actually buying
  • Aerial walkthrough video, $54.99
  • Neighbourhood amenity photography, $34.99, for listings where the pool and the clubhouse are half the pitch
  • Land and lot listings get an aerial-led package of their own at $154.99

Floor plans & measuring

A floor plan comes with every photo project.

Not an add-on. Every photo project includes a floor plan, downloadable as a PDF or a JPEG. Which one depends on the package, and the difference matters if you are sourcing MLS square footage.

  • Floor plan with room measurements — $29.99. Included with Value Listing, Listing Essentials and Zillow Showcase. Room dimensions and fixed assets. No heated square footage, so not a source for MLS square footage.
  • Digital GLA floor plan — from $49.99. Included with Vacant Home, both Open House packages and both VIP packages. Gross Living Area to ANSI‑Z765, produced from the scan captured during the shoot, so it adds no time on site. Suitable for MLS square footage.
  • Professional measuring — from $75.00 as an add-on, $84.99 on its own. A measurer in the property producing a detailed report, roughly 30 to 75 minutes depending on size. Also ANSI‑Z765, also suitable for MLS square footage.
  • Measured same day, detailed report the next day
  • Professional measuring is sometimes booked as a separate appointment, depending on the property and the day's schedule
GLA is Gross Living Area under ANSI‑Z765, the standard the MLS and appraisers both use. Carolina Home Photos is not a licensed appraiser, and a GLA floor plan is not an appraisal.
Staging & enhancement

For empty rooms and grey afternoons.

Everything here is an edit, not a claim about the property. Virtually staged and virtually enhanced images are always delivered labeled as such.

  • Virtual staging, from $15.99 a room. Furniture added to an empty room. The Vacant Home package includes three rooms.
  • Full house de-furnishing, $64.99. The opposite problem.
  • Virtual twilight, $19.99. A daytime exterior edited to dusk.
  • Real twilight, $124.99. An actual golden-hour visit. Different product, different price, and it looks it.
  • Grass greening, $14.99. For listings that hit the market in February.
  • Fire in the fireplace, $9.99.
