General 


Who are you?

My name is Rom Chaudemanche.
In a nut shell, I discovered real estate photography 15 years ago when my wife Cathy Chaudemanche asked me to take pictures for her first listing. 
Well let's say that the $99 point and shoot camera I owned at that time did not do the trick...:)
But the rest is history as they say and real estate photography became a passion, helping other agents with their pictures for the past few years.
So much that I retired from the software industry, joined Cathy to assist her as an agent and started my little real estate photography business.
Today I share my time between working with Cathy, running my photography biz and our volunteer work.
I am happy.
You can click on the About page to read more...

Are you licensed?

Yes, license # 4208865.
In order to legally fly a drone for commercial purposes you need to hold an active FAA license (FAA Part 107). 


 

Where are you located?

Cathy and I live in Edison NJ. We previously lived in Metuchen.

Who are your clients? who do you work with?

I work primarily with Real Estate Agents, Realtors and Brokers.
I also work directly with property owners.
I also work with Builders, Investors and Flippers.
Property Managers.
Home Stager and Designer.
Business owners in various industries.

What is your service area?

I  mostly cover Middlesex County and travel at times to Somerset County, Union County, Mercer County and upper Monmouth County in New Jersey. 
I work a lot in Edison, Metuchen, Fords, Piscataway, Woodbridge, Westfield, Plainfield, North Brunswick...

What are your hours? Do you work on week-end?

I schedule photo shoots every day of the week including Saturday afternoon and Sunday afternoon.

Do you have testimonials from real estate agents?

Yes, you can read awesome reviews from other really awesome clients on the Reviews page.
Building mutually beneficial long term business relationships and making my clients happy is my main goal. Not just a saying.

What is your work philosophy?

  1. I purposely strive to create mutually beneficial long term business relationships based on trust, respect and competence.
  2. Life is too short to spend much time with naysayers and haters.
  3. I really want to support you and your business.

See what other awesome agents have to say: Testimonials

What is your communication style?

I come from the corporate world so I strive to over communicate being as pro-active as possible with the goal of  running smooth and effective photo shoots and overall projects from beginning to end.

Whether you order your photo shoot through the easy online order form or through email/text, I will always call you back to confirm everything, get additional information and make sure that I answer all your questions. 
Then most of our communication will be done through emails and texts.

This is how Real Estate Agents and Clients have described the way I work:
Attention to detail, creativity, very flexible, skillful, doer, responsive, true professional, communicates every step of the process, quality work, delivers quickly, very thorough...


 

What is your photographic style?

Good question- The best way to understand the photographic style I developed in the past 17 years is to look at 200 photos from different listings that I uploaded in my Gallery.
This will give you a better understanding of what to expect.

For the techies, my style is the result of mixing multiple exposures fusion with manual blending to create a final picture that is fine tuned with global and mostly local adjustments. I use mostly Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop in tandem.

With that being said, each photo shoot is unique and comes with its own set of challenges so consequently there is a constant need to adjust and fine tune my "photographic style"...
Which I adjust also based on your input, needs and wants.

Real Estate Agents and Clients have described my pictures as:
So bright, vibrant, sharp, colorful, full of texture, exquisite, very defined, so perfect, appealing, best quality, amazing, clean...





Photo Shoot  


How do I order my photo shoot?

You can order your photo shoot using the online easy order form HERE.

Or email me or text me or call me at 917-692-0924 or using the Contact form.

How long does it take for you to do the photo shoot?

Photo shoot duration is around 60 minutes in average. 

I spend in average twice the amount of time on site than most of my competitors. Why? - Because I take time to Compose and Stage most pictures (moving around stuff, final touches, etc...). Why? - Because it is the only way to come up with consistent great pictures that sell and WOW your clients. 

The duration also depends on the add-on you selected (Drone, Floor Plans, 3D Tours, Virtual Staging) that will increase the time on site, the size of the property, how ready it is and other challenges, etc...

What is the best time during the day to schedule my photo shoot?

It really depends on which direction (North, South, East, West) the house is facing. 
The idea is to have the sun illuminating the front of the home and to an angle that also allows to take good exterior back pictures. 
If you are not sure, I will propose an optimum time range.
But as we know, sometimes the photo shoot has to be done on a specific day and time with no wiggle room.
And that's ok...Don't worry, we are in it together.



Can bad weather affect the photo shoot?

Typically rain does not affect the ability to take the interior pictures but for the exterior pictures, a little rain can be ok but not a torrential downpour. 
In this specific situation, I will need to come back to take the exterior pictures.
There will be no extra cost beside potentially travel fees (but only if travel fees are applicable).

No travel fee in Middlesex County NJ and potential tiny travel fees in other areas.


How should the property be prepared?

The better the home is prepared for the photo shoot and the better the pictures will look. This is very important...
After you order your photo shoot I will email you a check list.  “How to Showcase your Home for Professional Photography” to forward to your clients so they can be ready.

All being said, we know that at time, in spite of our best efforts, a listing wont be really ready. And that's ok-
It can happen for various reasons and I will simply do my best working around things and getting my "hands dirty" within the 90 minutes I allocate to all my photo shoots.

A few basic pointers:

Exterior-
Remove all cars from the driveway and front of the house
Remove all toys and garden tools (put them in the garage)
Mow the lawn, rake the leaves
Move the garbage cans out of sight (put them in the garage)
Sweep the deck, balcony, patio, driveway and sidewalk

Interior-
Turn on all lights
Turn off all ceiling fans and TVs
Clear off completely all counter tops in kitchen and bathrooms
Clear outside of refrigerator of magnets, papers, photos, etc.
Remove personal, religious and political photographs and items 
De-clutter table tops, shelves, night stands, etc...
Clean, organize, tidy, de-clutter, de-personalize...REPEAT...:)

HDR Better Photo package limitations 

Up to 60 minutes on site within one session. 
This covers about 80% of the photo shoots.

If you have a very large property with many features, land or particular situation... and believe it will take more 90 minutes to photo shoot please contact me to confirm the project scope.  

Million dollar plus properties or home by the water (where window views are important to get right) or larger property with land will take more than 90 minutes to shoot.

Also you could have a situation where your seller is desiring to direct the photo shoot or insisting on specific detail shots. 

Another situation could be that you know the house will not be ready for the pictures and there will be additional time that needs to be spent in clearing up the kitchen counters, de-cluttering bathroom counters, moving things around, etc... That's ok as well, not a problem. 

Just contact me to confirm the project scope and cost and I will make sure to schedule enough time. 

If your project needs more attention, the Custom Photo package might be right for you. 


Is it ok for the sellers to be home?

Sure but remember, the less distraction during the photo shoot, the better.
Most of my work on site requires a high level of concentration.
If there are pets for example, they need to be confined in one room. 

Do I need to be present when you do the photo shoot? 

It is up to you. 
If you won't be present, just make sure someone will be there to let me in or provide me with your lock combination/showing information.

Can I just give you the name and phone number of my client?

Sure. That's what some of my clients do and it works very well like that.   

What if my project needs more attention?

The HDR Better Photo package limitation is up to 60 minutes on site within one session. 

This covers about 80% of the photo shoots.

I understand that some listings for a reason or another could benefit from more pictures but more likely more time on site and/or 2 photo shoot sessions.

This could be the case for example with higher end east or west facing properties.
Taking the example of an east facing property; as the sun nicely illuminates the front of the property in the morning, if the back of the property is also important to shoot in its best light then this would need to be done in the afternoon when the sun is properly illuminating the back of the property.

Larger properties (over 4,000 sq feet), properties with land, properties with more architectural details, properties with breathtaking window views, additional life style pictures, etc... would likely benefit from more time allocated to the photo shoot and possibly more than 1 session. 

The Custom Photo package then might be just what you need.


Pictures


How many pictures are included?

As many as necessary to create a strong story line and within the limitation of the HDR Better Photo package (up to 60 minutes on site within one session).

If your project needs more attention, the Custom Photo package might be right for you.

How do you deliver the pictures?

Easy cloud delivery through a client download portal emailed to you. No password needed. 
Just click on 1 link and you will get access to all your pictures that you can download in bulk.
Your pictures are coming in the right order to save you time when you upload them to your MLS. 
It's that quick and simple!!!



Do you Photoshop every picture?

Every picture is post processed (retouched) through any or all of the following professional retouching software: Enfuse,  Adobe Lightroom, Adobe Photoshop.
This helps me create consistent bright, sharp & vibrant, magazine-quality pictures.

Do you deliver multiple picture sizes?

Yes multiple picture sizes and DPI for your Web and Print needs.
So your pictures look good as well when you print them!!!

How fast will I get my pictures?

Within 24 business hours.
Some add-on like Virtual Staging, Premium Property Website, Floor Plans, 360 Tours or additional requests or higher number of pictures may increase  the turn around time. 

Do you have a rush delivery option?

Yes I do- Your pictures in 4 hours (add $50). 

It is literally a race against the clock that starts once I leave your listing.  Let me know when you order your photo shoot if you are interested in this option so I can schedule my day accordingly.

What is the difference between Virtual Staging and Home Staging?

This is a good question- and we could talk about it for hours.

In the context of vacant listing, Home Staging is the very best thing you can implement to statistically sell a vacant property  faster and higher. Virtual Staging is the second best thing.

Virtual Staging like Home Staging, creates beautiful pictures that will attract buyers to visit the property.

The limitation of Virtual Staging is obvious- once the prospective buyer is visiting the property...it is empty...And as most folks have difficulties envisioning space and life style then you could have lost your edge...

So while similar at first,  Virtual Staging and Home Staging are actually two very different tools. 



Do you have a rush delivery option?

Yes, I call it the Mad Rush Delivery...:)

Your pictures in 4 hours. It is a literal race against the clock that starts when I live the property. Some restrictions apply.
If you need this option, please tell me before hand so I can confirm availability and schedule things accordingly.

Can you come back and retake some pictures if needed?

Sure. The situation arise at times when new interior or exterior pictures are needed. 
For example with the change of season or if some rooms are remodeled, repainted, etc...
A re-shoot up to 7 pictures cost $50 only.



Do you offer Home Staging?

If your property is vacant, I would suggest Virtual Staging  or Home Staging to statistically  help selling it faster and higher and help your prospective buyers fall in love with the space. 

Home Staging is provided by Cindy Mussman. Cindy  has helped over 1,000 homeowners successfully prepare their home for sale in Central New Jersey. With over 25 years experience, she is the recipient of Best of Houzz winner 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016.


I have a special/high-end project. Can you help me?

Yes, one size does not fit all and while my HDR Better Photo package is good for 80% of the listings/projects, I understand that higher-end listings and special projects might need more.

The Custom Photo package then might be just what you need.

Policies


Limited Liability Policy

Important to read and understand-

When I am on a photo-soot, most of the time, I need to adjust blinds and window treatments to adjust the incoming ambient light into the room.
At times, I also need to move furniture to better compose a photo. 
I may also need to move personal items out of sight and de-clutter counter tops and furniture tops in order to create better photos.

Those actions are needed to create better photos.

While I perform those action, there is a small but possible risk of breakage.

For example, blinds could break, window treatments could fall, I could scratch the floor or the wall, something could fall and break while being moved, etc...

While the likelihood of such incidents happening is rare, it could and it does happen.

I am very careful and diligent when I am on a photo-shoot.  Again those are very rare possible incidents but you need to understand the risk and accept it.

Meaning if any breakage happens within this context, you agree not to hold me liable.


HDR Better Photo package limitations

Up to 60 minutes on site within one session.
This covers about 80% of the photo shoots. 

If your project needs more attention, the Custom Photo package might be right for you.  

If you have a  larger property with many features, land or particular situation...or need more than one session, please contact me to confirm the project scope. 

Million dollar plus properties or home by the water (where window views are important to get right) or large property with land will take more than 90 minutes to shoot.

Also you could have a situation where your seller is desiring to direct the photo shoot or insisting on specific detail shots. 
Another situation could be that you know the house will not be ready for the pictures and there will be additional time that needs to be spent in clearing up the kitchen counters, de-cluttering bathroom counters, moving things around, etc...

That's ok as well, not a problem. Just contact me to confirm the project scope and I will make sure to schedule enough time.

If your project needs more attention, the Custom Photo package might be right for you.  

Rescheduling Policy

There is no rescheduling fee.
Just let me know as soon as possible if you need to reschedule your photo shoot.

Cancellation Policy

There is no cancellation fee. 
Things happen in business in spite of our best efforts. I understand that.

If you have to cancel the photo shoot please let me know as soon as possible. That's it...

Picture Licensing 

When using my services, I grant all Multiple Listing Systems the following picture licensing rights as required by CJMLS:

An irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable and transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, resize, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, and display the Images for any lawful purpose, and to modify, add to, or strip out the metadata contained within the Images.





Real Estate Agents


Why should I use professional real estate photography?

The main reason is that studies have shown that professionally photographed homes sell for more money and faster that non professionally photographed homes (Redfin, VHT Studio, RISMedia...).
(32% faster and up to $11,000 more. Data based on Redfin study).

Bad photos may be the reason why a home does not sell even in a seller's market: U.S.News

6 reasons why a professional home photographer is worth the price: Inman

Professionally shot property photos are an absolutely essential sales tool: U.S.News

Attract Home Buyers Easily With Great Photography: houzz

Advertising a home is like advertising most products. Don't you want to advertise it in its best light to potential buyers? Of course.

There are additional important benefits for the agent who is aiming to become a top listing agent or is already a top listing agent such as more repeat business, more referrals and wining more listings

But not all photographers are created equal. It is up to you as the listing agent to make sure that you are selecting a photographer who can deliver consistently magazine-quality pictures at a fair price, within a short amount of time.

Why should I use Photoshop Supplements? 

Those Photoshop Supplements are following marketing, advertising and branding best practices that are designed to help you:

  1. Increase the number of views (click-through) and overall interest in your online listings > increase number of showings >  increase offers. #SellitFasterAndHigher
  2. Captivate online viewers and keep them longer on your listings
  3. Wow your current and future sellers #WowYourClients
  4. Create and maintain a superior brand #ThisIsYourBrand
  5. Set yourself apart as a top listing agent #WinMoreListings

Some Photoshop supplements are included in the HDR Better Photo package and some are add-on you can order when you schedule your photo shoot.

See the Photoshop Supplements page for more information and below:

Virtual Dusk: $20 per picture

Blue Sky Replacement:
1 free Blue Sky Replacement is included in the HDR Better Photo package (the main front exterior picture).
Additional Blue Sky Replacement pictures are $5.00 each only and with a volume discount pricing

TV (or computer) Screen Replacement
1 free TV Screen Replacement is included in the HDR Better Photo package
Additional TV (or computer) Screen Replacement pictures are $5.00 each and with a volume discount pricing.

YOUR BRAND - TV Screen Replacement
1 time Design & Configuration fee of $25 only.

Welcome Home & White Frame
This is included in the HDR Better Photo package.

Spotlighting 
This is included in the HDR Better Photo package.

Why should I use Drone photography?

Drone photography is in my opinion one of the major technology improvement since digital photography.
It simply allows to take a picture from 5 feet high to...a maximum of 400 feet.
And when you go up and start tilting the camera down, this is when the magic happens.
By going up and tilting that camera,  you are switching from a 2 dimensional  photography to a 3 dimensional photography. Where depth and flow understanding is becoming instantly obvious. Making drone technology a powerful descriptive tool.
Because this vantage point is unfamiliar to the viewer, it will typically keep buyers longer on your listing and give them something more to remember your specific listing.
A general misconception is that real estate drone photography is only for larger properties with a lot of land or by the water or forest. 
Because of its visually descriptive power and direct and indirect benefits, it does wonder for interesting backyards and backyards with pools for example.
Be your Client's HERO. Drone Photography is another top listing agent secret weapon!!! It will make your listings stand out and generate more interests and certainly set you apart!!!

Do you have testimonials from other real estate agents?

Yes, you can read awesome reviews from really awesome clients on the Reviews page.

Building mutually beneficial long term business relationships and making my clients happy is my main goal. Not just a saying.

Why should I use Virtually Staged pictures?

You know how difficult it is to market and advertise a vacant listing. Most buyers have a hard time to envision empty spaces and this typically translate in less interest and more time on the market.

Virtual Staging can fix that situation and also creates the emotional appeal missing in a vacant home and helps selling the lifestyle!!!
It will make your listings stand out and generate more interests and certainly set you apart as a top listing agent!!!
Virtual Staging can be used for a vacant home and also for a single empty important room in a furnished home.
Typically only 2-4 virtually staged pictures are needed to bring life and more interest in a vacant listing.

Why should I purchase  a Premium Single Property Website for each of my listing?

Simply put, single property websites that DO NOT expire are the best way to control your listings advertising and maintain your superior brand.
It is another top listing agent's secret weapon to generate more ongoing leads.
Paired with a premium .com web address (like 123mainstreet.com) to maximize your marketing reach.

Imagine after a few years having dozen of those single property websites in the cloud, in your clients and their friends emails, etc...

Do you have a PDF or eBook covering the basics of real estate photography for real estate agents? 

You might find this PDF very informative: What Real Estate Agents need to know about Photography 

Can you do a presentation/class at my office?

DISCONTINUED - Sure, see right below in the Brokers & Team Leads section.



Brokers & Team Leads


Do you have a Price Sheet I can print out?

Yes, click here to print out my Price Sheet. 
Feel free to share it with others. My business comes mostly through referral and word of mouth... 

Can you do a presentation/class at my office?

DISCONTINUED - Sure.
I give 1 hour long PowerPoint and real life examples based class titled: 
Real Estate Photography to Grow your Business & Brand

This is a free class, I do not charge for it. 
All I need is a projector or other system to project my PowerPoint presentation and be able to go on the web to a few websites. 

This is the outline:
 1.     Introduction
 2.     A Genuine Business Edge 
 3.     Benefits - Statistics
 4.     4 Other REAL Benefits 
 5.     2 costly Mistakes
 6.     It’s a PROCESS - The Big Picture
 7.     Diving into Details
 8.     Drone - Win more Listings
 9.     Virtual Staging -  Win more Listings
 10.   Photoshop Supplements

 17.   Q&A

This class goes over the material from the perspective and the needs of an agent NOT a photographer.

As I share my time between my Real Estate photography business and assisting my wife Cathy Chaudemanche with her real estate dealings, I am in a unique situation. As an insider, I know exactly what Agents needs in this regard, what works and what does not work and what buyers and sellers are looking for. 

In this class I share  insightful information in the most candid way. The information I wish someone would have told me 15 years ago. 

I have been told by many agents that it was the first time they were getting this information in such way, that it was very different and they find it very informative and practical.


For Sale by Owners


Do you work with "For Sale by Owners"?

Yes, absolutely.
I do not charge extra and offer the same exact rates and terms as for Real Estate Agents.
Please see my Pricing  page for more information.

What can you suggest to help me sell my property faster and for top dollar?

If your property is vacant, I would suggest Virtual Staging  or Home Staging to statistically  help selling it faster and higher.

I would also strongly suggest a Single Property Website as to better control your advertising and greatly help you to reach your spheres thanks to an included custom URL (123mainStreet.com).

What I would also suggest is a "Walk & Talk" Seller Consultation with Cindy Mussman. A very small investment to create stunning advertising pictures and help buyers fall in love with your home. 

All those suggestions will statistically help you to sell your property faster and at a higher price.

Read our testimonials and see how we have helped many to reach their goals with just a small investment...

Keep in mind my HDR Better Photo package limitations: up to 90 minutes on site within one session. This covers about 80% of the photo shoots.

If your project needs more attention, the Custom Photo package might be right for you. 

Do you have testimonials/reviews I can read to make sure we are a good match?

Yes, you can read awesome reviews from really awesome clients on the Reviews page.

Building mutually beneficial long term business relationships and making my clients happy is my main goal. Not just a saying.
And this goes for each and every one of my client.



Builders & Investors


Do you work with Builders & Real Estate Investors?

Yes, absolutely.
I do not charge extra and offer the same exact rates and terms as for Real Estate Agents.
Please see my Pricing  page for more information.


Can you provide Home Staging?

If your property is vacant, I would suggest Virtual Staging  or Home Staging to statistically  help selling it faster and higher and help your prospective buyers fall in love with the space. 

Home Staging is provided by Cindy Mussman. Cindy  has helped over 1,000 homeowners successfully prepare their home for sale in Central New Jersey.
With over 25 years experience, she is the recipient of Best of Houzz winner 2019, 2018, 2017, 2016.


Can you do Before & After pictures?

Yes, absolutely.

Before & After pictures of a remodeling project, new construction, addition, flip, redesign, etc.. are very valuable information that can be used for different purposes (project documentation, creating reports, regulatory compliance, creating marketing material, etc...)

For most projects, the overall cost is the price of the HDR Better Photo package x2 = $250.00

Ultimately, cost is based on the project location, scope and your specific requirements. Please contact me to confirm the fee.

What about Visual Project/Remodeling/Construction Documentation?

Yes, this is something that I provide as well.

Taking high resolution pictures (wide and detailed, interior and exterior, ground level and drone) of your project from beginning to end and throughout its life cycle at specific intervals (example: monthly) and/or on-demand.

More coming soon.
