Planning and booking

How do I book a real estate media shoot?

Use the inquiry form to share the property address, approximate size, services and preferred date. We review the details and discuss scope and availability before confirming a booking. Sending the form is an inquiry, not an automatic reservation.

Start a shoot inquiry
What information should I include in my inquiry?

Include the address, property type, approximate square footage and the media you need. Tell us about any priority rooms or features, access arrangements, your preferred date and any publishing deadline. Share access codes privately through the agreed channel.

Which areas do you serve?

Studio6ixMedia creates real estate media for Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area. GTA travel is included with Photography + Drone Photography and the Full Marketing Package; confirm travel arrangements for other services or locations when inquiring.

How long will the shoot take?

The time needed depends on the property size, the spaces being captured and the combination of photography, video, tours and other services. Ask for the expected appointment length when the scope of your booking is confirmed.

What if my plans change or the property is not ready?

Contact the studio as soon as possible to discuss your booking. Ask about any cancellation, rescheduling and weather arrangements when booking.

Getting the property ready

How should I prepare my home for photography?

Finish cleaning and staging before arrival, clear surfaces, make beds, check lighting and put away private items. Prepare outdoor areas too. Our room-by-room guide includes a checklist you can print or share with your homeowner.

Do I need professional staging?

A clean, tidy, thoughtfully arranged home is a useful starting point. Discuss staging with your agent based on the property and marketing plan. Have furniture placement and decorative choices ready before the shoot rather than expecting a staging service during capture.

Can people and pets stay at the property?

Coordinate with the photographer so rooms can be captured without people or pets moving through the frame. Arrange a comfortable place for pets and keep the areas being photographed ready and accessible.

Is preparation different for video or a 360 tour?

Video and virtual walkthroughs connect multiple viewpoints, so hallways, corners and routes between rooms need attention too. Prepare all included spaces before capture rather than moving clutter from one room to the next.

What should I do before a twilight shoot?

Check interior, exterior and landscape lights, tidy the main outdoor viewpoints and discuss access before the appointment. Twilight is a separate service, so confirm it is part of your booking.
