FAQ's
Weather plays a huge part in what we do. To make sure your home will look it's best we will not photograph if it's raining outside. cloudy days are ok to still shoot on, but we are always happy to reschedule with you if you prefer a sunny day.

Weather
If you want to split-up a shoot and do interiors one day and exteriors another day the first shoot is billed as a full shoot and the exteriors are billed as a separate "exteriors only" shoot.
We will photoshop in blue skies on 2 photos for free on a cloudy day.
What do you do if it's raining?
If it's raining can we do interiors only and exteriors another day?

All shoots must be scheduled online through our booking app. We no longer schedule shoots via email or text. You can visit our booking site HERE
When you book online, you will receive a text & email confirmation. Inside will be a link that will allow you to reschedule or cancel the shoot. If you successfully reschedule your shoot, you will receive a confirmation text.
We completely understand the nature of how last minute real estate can be, and it's often difficult to get the home photo ready so quickly. Because of this you can reschedule up to 2 hours before the scheduled shoot time. If you need to reschedule later than that or the home is not ready to be photographed when we arrive there is a fee of $75
How do I schedule a shoot?
What do I do if I want to reschedule or cancel a shoot?
I just got to the home, and it's not ready. Can I reschedule last minute?
Scheduling
Preparing for a shoot can be overwhelming, and time consuming. To help you and the home owner focus on the areas that are most crucial to photos we've created a prep guide that you can view & send to your clients HERE
No, We actually prefer if the home owner is not there. If you would like to be there to highlight what areas you feel are most important we will make sure to focus on those areas.
While we work very hard to make sure the photos look the best, we can't clean up after the home owners. If a chair or item needs moved to get a better photo we will happily do that, but if a room is cluttered or dirty we cannot move all the items or wait for someone else to do that.
This varies based not just on the size of the home, but on the level of detail in the home. We shoot each and every house in a way that best highlights that individual home without a specific number of photos in mind. Typically that number falls between 25 & 30 for smaller less detailed homes and can be as hight as 40-50 for larger estates with intricate details.
How do I best prepare for a shoot?
Does someone need to be present?
Will you move things or pickup if the room isn't ready?
How many photos will you deliver?

If I'm representing a builder, can they use the photos
While, we want the builder to use the photos, he (or she) will need to purchase a use license from us. The photos can only be used to sell the home, and for portfolio marketing by the real estate agent. Likewise if a builder buys a license, the realtor will need to purchase a license to market the home for sale.
What's licensing? Don't I own the photos?
In short, no. But, licensing can be a bit of a complicated matter. To break it down - Photos are 'intellectual property' which falls into the same category as music, and it's always owned by the artist. If you buy a CD or MP3 of a song, you have licensed that music for home use. If your friend wants to do the same, he also buys the song from the artist. Every person that wants that song has to buy it. It's the same for photos. Every business that wants to use the photos to promote themselves has to buy a license from the photographer who took that photo.
Yes, we will, but there are travel fees for anything outside the greater Indianapolis area.
Yes, for anything that requires more than 45 minutes drive we charge $75 per hour of driving time. For example if a home is located 2 hours away from our office, there would be a $300 travel fee to cover the 4 hours of drive time there and back.
For out of town shoots, you can still schedule online. After booking please send us an email letting us know how far away the shoot is. If the weather shows greater than a 40% chance of rain we will automatically reschedule.

MEET the Team
The Home Aesthetic specializes in creating beautiful imagery for real estate both here in Indianapolis and around the country.
The process for photographing a home goes well beyond snapping photos. Every photo we take is planned and perfectly lit not just to document a room but to convey the emotion of the space.
The photos we create are not meant just to sell your home. They are meant to help you build a brand that people want to be a part of.
If you have a property that you are interested in having us photograph, we'd love the chance to talk with you. For agents that are interested in having us photograph all of your listings, make sure to inquire about our VIP program for discounted rates.
Brock is our Operations Manager. He both photographs and makes sure everything runs smoothly here during the day, and then plays super dad at night.
He has three adorable kids and his wife Stefanie owns the amazing clothing boutique in downtown Zionsville Blooms & Linen.
I started The Home Aesthetic 6 years ago after being frustrated with our own home buying process. We would search for hours on Real Estate sites like Zillow, Trulia, and MIBOR; but the photo quality was terrible and rarely gave an adequate representation of the home. Being part photographer and part entrepreneur, I had to do something to help agents and home owners solve the problem. Most of my personal photoshoots are now on the commercial side working with interior designers and hotels
When I'm not photographing, my wife and I spend most of our time traveling. We love exploring new countries and cultures.
Hi, I’m Mark! I graduated from Ball State University - Chirp Chirp - with a degree in Video Production and Post Cinema Sound. I have been shooting videos since I was 11 years old, no you can’t watch them. I’ve always been a huge movie goer, although I haven’t gone as much as I need to these days. My favorite memory of the theatre was when the first Star Trek came out my Dad and I saw it 9 times in one weekend. My passion projects these days consist of traveling to other countries and meeting their locals, usually whipping up some sort of documentary from the video footage! All in all, I believe everyone has a story worth hearing, experience is brand, honesty is appreciated, there are no strangers, Frank Sinatra is awesome and that vibes are an art.
Cameron is our Brand Specialist. He helps our clients clarify their message and authentically connect with their target market through a blend of creativity and strategy...the same tactics he uses when building LEGO spaceships and doing rescue missions with his two kids at home.
He has been married to his wife Lisa for 8 years, and they love food, friends, and Anne of Green Gables.
I'm a husband and father of four who is a born and raised a Hoosier. I've been a photographer for over a decade now and feel blessed for where it has taken me and the flexibility it has allowed me to be present with my family. I'm a big sports fans and consider myself lucky to have the family and friends that I do.
