I did a real-estate MLS photo shoot for some friends yesterday afternoon.  And the weather and sunshine decided to cooperate entirely!  Oh, it’s so lovely when that happens! #sunshine #pretty rooms #pretty blooms

What some sunshine, decluttering, and well-placed things can do for a home!
We tackled a little de-cluttering and then moved onto light-staging, using entirely belongings the homeowners’ already had on hand.  We brought pillows out to the front porch rocking chairs (because this is the South, and a sitting porch is prime makings of a good home!)  We set the patio table with pretty dishes, and put fresh cut flowers throughout the house (which the realtor — Josh Redmond — brought along from his own yard!)   We opened up the windows, did away with any “loud” accessories or clutter, set a few well-placed beautiful things, and generally snapped photographs like there was no tomorrow.  We took a camera-full of traditional whole-room MLS photos, and then I got to have a little fun highlighting the beautiful moments about the home.  Here are a few of my favorite photographs from the afternoon!  (That deep green wall + yellow lamp shade = Pure ❤!  Seriously, right?! I need a dark green wall.)

If you’re getting ready to sell your home (or even if it is already on the market!), we’d love to partner with you in staging your home! For more information on staging your home-to-sell with the help of Tera Janelle Design, see our staging-to-sell and MLS photography packages and pricing here.   It’s amazing what an afternoon of decluttering, staging, and some great photographs can do!!

Here’s to a quick sale!  It was such a pleasure working with these two and their realtor!
