For real estate photographers

Virtual staging for real estate photographers, as an add-on

Your clients already ask what to do with the empty rooms. Offer virtual staging with every shoot: stage the rooms in seconds, right after the HDR edit, and deliver everything in one gallery.

Why offer staging

Virtual staging is the add-on your clients already want

Agents with vacant listings need staged photos, and they'd rather get them from the photographer who shot the home than order them somewhere else.

More from every shoot

Add staging to your packages and earn more from the shoots you already book. What you charge is up to you.

No extra trip

Stage from the photos you already took. No furniture, no movers, no second visit.

One supplier for the agent

HDR edits and staged rooms in the same delivery, from you, instead of a second vendor.

Examples

Empty rooms, staged in your client's style

Drag the slider. Same room, same light, now furnished. Re-render in another style until it suits the listing.

A small empty room becomes a home office, so buyers know what to use it for.

How it works

Add virtual staging to your workflow in three steps

Staging works from the same place you edit your shoots, so it doesn't add a new tool to your day.

  1. 01

    Edit the shoot

    Upload your brackets to Auto HDR, or let Dropbox auto-import do it, and get the edited photos back.

  2. 02

    Stage the empty rooms

    Pick the rooms to stage, choose a room type and one of 11 styles. Staging runs in the background.

  3. 03

    Deliver one gallery

    Compare, re-render if the client wants another style, and deliver HDR and staged photos together.
