Color Correction in Real Estate Photography

Real Estate Color Correction

Many people wonder “I should just use a point and shoot camera and just take the photo myself”.  But did you know that just by doing that, you overlook important details of the photos that could have look nicer?

One of the features we include with our Real Estate Photography services is color correction.  Photos that are taken in interior settings in Auto White Balance, and left as is in post processing will turn out yellowish in color.  Cameras do not know how to distinguish color as well as a human eye.  Generally, interior photos shows up as color temperature below 5500K which may not be ideal as a finished product.

As a result, color correction is needed to correct the photo into neutral color so the interior doesn’t look like it’s washed out by yellowish sunlight.  This is done during the post processing stage of our service.

By including this feature in our photo retouching, realtors can show to their potential clients how nice and pretty the interior of the homes are.
