Photographers are not certified staging professionals with the Real Estate Staging Association, but they will do what is known as “light staging”. Light staging improves the overall presentation of the photograph. Light staging includes:
-Turn on all available lighting
-Adjusting some lightweight furniture such as dining room chairs, kitchen chairs, etc.
-Straightening pillows and bedding
-Turning off ceiling fans and televisions
-Align window treatments
-Removing minor clutter
Before the photographer arrives, the property should be clean, prepared, and staged. Due to liability and risk of injury, photographers are instructed not to move furniture and not to move most objects within the property, particularly large, heavy objects and personal items.
