How Much Does Real Estate Photography Cost in Australia?

Captivating visuals are the cornerstone of a successful property listing. In today’s online-driven real estate market, high-quality photos are crucial for grabbing potential buyers’ attention and setting your property apart from the competition.

Why Use Professional Real Estate Photography?

With 95% of home buyers starting their search online, professional photography is no longer a luxury, it’s a necessity. Beyond showcasing your property in its best light, captivating images can also:

  • Trigger an emotional connection with potential buyers, making them feel invested in the space.
  • Increase click-through rates on your online listing, generating more leads.
  • Reduce the number of days your property stays on the market by attracting serious buyers faster.


Studies have shown that high-quality photos can add anywhere from $1,000 to over $100,000 to the final sale price. This makes professional photography a smart investment, potentially recouping your costs several times over.

Why great photographs alone aren’t enough in todays market.

Modern real estate marketing extends beyond static images. In todays digital market, you need to be adding in additional content such as incorporating a videographer to even further engage the end user to pick up the phone and book a inspection. Consider incorporating these additional elements to elevate your listing:

Photography & video packages tailored to your needs.

By creating different package options for our clients, we are able to give them the choice of choosing a package that suits their property best. For small rentals and short-stay apparments, we offer a 10 photo package that will capture the space to a T without blowing the budget for our clients. For larger and higher-end properties, we offer a 25 photo package that will include multiple angles and selling points, as well as close up shots that capture unique and intricate details of interior and architecture. The same applies for real estate videography, whether you are wanting to shoot during the day, or at dusk, we have you covered!

Drone photography is priced per photo, as we understand that every property does not have the same drone photography needs. For example; a home located on a large rural block may only require 1-2 drone photos to show the size of the land and proximity to town center. In sayin that, construction sites, commercial buildings, and large-scale developments may require more drone shots, therefore providing our customers with flexibility when enquiring for drone photography.
