The practical framework

The 15 photos that help tell a complete listing story

This is a planning framework, not a rigid requirement. Use the images that best explain the property and leave out anything repetitive or misleading.

  1. 01

    Hero exterior

    Open with the clearest, most attractive view of the property.

  2. 02

    Front approach

    Show the driveway, path, landscaping or building entrance when it adds context.

  3. 03

    Entrance or hallway

    Establish the sense of arrival and how the interior begins.

  4. 04

    Main living area

    Use an accurate wide view that communicates space, light and purpose.

  5. 05

    Kitchen overview

    Show the complete layout before focusing on finishes or appliances.

  6. 06

    Dining and room flow

    Explain how the kitchen, dining and living spaces connect.

  7. 07

    Primary bedroom

    Choose an angle that presents space, natural light and the strongest feature.

  8. 08

    Primary ensuite

    Use a clean, balanced view that shows the most important fixtures.

  9. 09

    Secondary bedroom

    Show the strongest additional bedroom or flexible room.

  10. 10

    Additional bathroom

    Include the main family, guest or secondary bathroom when it adds useful information.

  11. 11

    Feature detail

    Highlight one true differentiator, such as a fireplace, office or premium finish.

  12. 12

    Outdoor living

    Present the balcony, patio or terrace as a usable extension of the home.

  13. 13

    Garden, pool or land

    Communicate the strongest outdoor asset and its relationship to the property.

  14. 14

    View or location context

    Add an accurate view or location image without misrepresenting proximity or outlook.

  15. 15

    Closing hero

    Finish with a memorable exterior, twilight image or signature feature.

From photo selection to campaign

Choose the strongest sequence for your property video

The strongest video is not necessarily the one with the most images. Establish the property, move naturally through its most persuasive spaces, introduce the true differentiators and finish with a memorable closing frame.

  • Remove duplicate and near-identical angles.
  • Correct obvious colour, exposure and horizon problems.
  • Keep the room order natural and easy to follow.
  • Place the strongest selling points early.
  • Verify that every photo accurately represents the property.
  • Confirm that you have permission to use every image.

Quick answers

Frequently asked questions

Do I need exactly 15 listing photos?

No. This is a flexible planning framework. A smaller property may need fewer images, while a larger or more distinctive property may need additional coverage.

Should every photo appear in the property video?

Not always. Select the clearest sequence for the video and reuse the wider approved photo set across the rest of the campaign.

Which image should come first?

Use the image most likely to stop the right buyer and create immediate interest. For most listings this is the strongest exterior, although an exceptional view or interior may occasionally be more persuasive.

What belongs in the video outro?

Include the agent or agency name, logo, contact details and one clear call to action. Avoid filling the final screen with competing messages.

One property. One coordinated campaign.

Turn your approved listing photos into more than a video

Create a polished property video, then continue with the same listing to prepare a website, brochure, social content, buyer enquiries and seller materials.
