REAL ESTATE & ARCHITECTURAL PHOTOGRAPHY COURSE | 2 DAYS | CODE LIME PHOTOGRAPHY | PERTH

WHAT TO EXPECT

This course will steer you through the essential tools needed and the technique required to shoot quality, dynamic, creative and emotive shots which portray your client's property in the best possible light. Great photographs of properties and the ability to turn a drab, unappealing property into something attractive for prospective buyers adds value to the property and enhances your business professionalism. For travellers and lovers of fine architecture, you gain the skills to bring back evocative, memorable images of places you have stayed or visited plus learn the skills to edit images with 4 hrs of Lightroom 6/CC tuition.

The course will also appeal to photographers needing to learn more about flash gun techniques and shooting under a wide range of difficult lighting conditions. Many of our course students just love still life photography and shooting architecture. In this course they will learn from how to shoot industrial warehouses, classic Federation terraces, workers cottages, Italian villas, Greek tavernas, Turkish mosques - and closer to home prime residential houses & apartments in Cottesloe, Swanbourne & Claremont.
