Real Estate & Architectural Photography is her specialty and you won't find her out offering Family, Wedding, and Children Photoshoots. While others may be skilled in portrait photography, Andrea specializes in real estate photography.
Andrea's photography style & skills in photographing homes is a very in-depth process and requires an entirely different skill set. Real Estate Photography is a whole different aspect and requires specialized skills & training to get you the highest quality images.
First impressions are everything when people are looking to buy something. You want the first impression to be the best impression. If there is anything that is a major negative in the buyer’s mind when first seeing a home, it can turn them off, or make them see the home as less desirable. Great photos put a very positive image in the buyer’s mind so when they go to view the home in person, they already have the mindset that “this house is great for me!”
Andrea knows how to photograph homes in a way that will make them stand out while highlighting the unique features of the home. Andrea's photography & videos also allow the buyer to picture themselves in the home and envision the home as being theirs.
Great photos & videos can cause potential buyers to develop an emotional attachment to a home. When this happens, the buyers tend to stop looking at other places and will reach out to you about the listing.
Andrea goes above & beyond for every client. Her eye for detail, how she goes in personally stages the property from room to room, the angles she takes, her editing style, and the hours she spends editing each image by hand without the use of filters are what sets Southern Belle Real Estate Photography LLC. from any other photographer in the Myrtle Beach Grand Strand Area.

How It Works

Andrea brings years of experience to bear on every shoot.
Andrea knows how to capture the essence of the space within the limits of 2 dimensions. Her consultative approach to
Real Estate Photography

When Choosing your Real Estate Photography Collection
Southern Belle Real Estate Photography LLC. has made it easy for you to choose the perfect collection to showcase the property, amenities & lifestyle.
We offer a wide range of services to help you market your property to its full potential. Choose a collection that will showcase the property, the lifestyle & really highlights the features of the home.
We try to make it easy for you when choosing a collection. When we consider photographing a property its doesn't just start & end with the home itself. So everything is included in your photography collection from the Entrance of the community, Front & Back Exterior of the home, Interior of the Home & Amenities. So we always suggest picking a Real Estate Photography Collection that allows you enough images to showcase everything.
Unlike other photographers that charge you a package fee plus an additional fee to add on amenity photos.
-EEK
Factors to consider when choosing your Real Estate Photography Collection
1. What is the Sq. Ft. of the property?
We recommend choosing a collection that is based on the Sq. Ft. of the property & will be able to showcase the amenities & surrounding area.
2. Are you wanting to showcase the amenities as well?
If you want to include any amenities such as community pools, tennis courts, basketball courts, volleyball courts, parks, beaches, boat docks, storage, etc. Make sure to choose a collection that allows you to include these images along with the property images.
3. Are you wanting to showcase the lifestyle of the surrounding area to help give the feel of what it's like to live in the area?
These are great ways to capture the lifestyle of the area. You can include the property, amenities, golf courses nearby beaches nearby and any attractions you think are a hit! If this is something you are interested in be sure to choose a collection that will allow the property, amenities, and lifestyle images.
4. Are you wanting to have a variety of images to choose from?
If your answer is YES then I suggest going up a collection or two. Our collections come with a set # of Images.
5. Does the property feature upgrades like hardwood floors, granite or marble counters, etc?
If your property features upgrades we recommend going with our Luxury HDR Photography Collections.
6. Are you wanting to receive 403% more inquires on your listing? If so we recommend choosing a collection that offers
photography & videography.
In today's real estate market, online video is a powerful way to set yourself apart. Not only will video peak buyers' interest, but it will also help you win more listings.
Sellers want to work with real estate agents who go above and beyond. Offering special perks such as creating high-quality video creation to your clients will help make you a more attractive
agent to work with.
Southern Belle Real Estate Photography LLC. Videography helps bring to life the highest quality videos ready for web, mobile, social media, and more!
Our approach is to present the property as if the buyer was there seeing the property in person. Our Video Tours will guide the viewers through the exterior & interior of the property. Highlighting the key features of the home. Our photographers bring high-quality DSLR cameras, lenses, sliders, and other equipment. Invest in your business. A personalized premium real estate video is a perfect way to gain a competitive advantage!
Photos & videos are the FIRST things an online viewer will notice about a listing. This is why professional online marketing for your listing is so IMPORTANT!
Along with professional photography, why not include a video that will grab the viewer's attention and generate qualified leads? Real Estate listing that includes a video has been proven to receive 403% more inquiries than listings without.
Give your next listing a video marketing boost!!!! The majority of homeowners are more likely to list their property with agents who offer Professional Real Estate Photography & Videography than agents who don't.
Today's market is oversaturated with Agents & only a small number of Real Estate Agents do video marketing in South Carolina. Why not invest in Real Estate Videography to get the upper hand over other agents & STAND out ABOVE the rest??
85% of buyers/sellers want an agent who has video marketing
15% of agents have a video presence
If getting more homeowners to list with you isn't a big reason to incorporate video tours into your listings, gaining increased market popularity should be. Buyers are using videos as a source of information during their home search.

Here is some other Real Estate Photographers pricing in the USA.
These are their starting out prices.
Real Estate Photographers in Maine start out at $190 for homes under 3,000 sq. ft & start out at $225 for homes over 3,000 sq. ft.
Real Estate Photographers in Illinois start out at $150 for 25 photos & $375 for under 2000 sq. ft.
Real Estate Photographers in Florida start out at $250-$500
A Basic Real Estate Photography shoot from a professional photographer generally starts anywhere between $110 and $300 per shoot for photos only (no video). Also depends on Experience, Skills, Location etc.
There are always new photographers who are willing to test the waters in real estate for $80 or so, but most Real Estate Agents are tired of the issues that come along with hiring someone who doesn't have good business processes in place–late delivery of photos, no invoicing procedure, poor quality work, bad angles, blown windows, etc.
