Real estate photography in Richmond, VA.
RVA's housing is some of the most photogenic in Virginia: rowhouses with tall porches in The Fan, restored homes in Church Hill, brick streets near Carytown, loft condos in Scott's Addition and converted warehouses in Manchester. It's at the far south end of our area, about an hour and a half down I-95.
Richmond neighborhoods.
Fan rowhouses: long and narrow.
A Fan rowhouse runs front to back: parlor, dining room, kitchen, then a small garden or patio. Photos that try to make the rooms wide don't work. We shoot down the length of the house, give the porch and the original details their own frames and recommend a floor plan ($75) so buyers understand the layout. Many of these houses have been split into units; each unit gets its own set.
Lofts and new condos.
In Scott's Addition and Manchester, buyers want the exposed brick, the big windows and the view. A real twilight ($250) from a high floor captures the skyline, and a 3D tour helps buyers compare similar loft plans across buildings.
Drone photography in Richmond.
Richmond is outside the DC-area rings our booking check models: The Fan clears every ring in our airspace check, and Manchester clears every ring in our airspace check. The city's main airport sits to the east, so homes near it get a LAANC authorization first, usually in minutes, and the pilot runs the day-of B4UFLY check before every flight.
Our airspace check, place by place. Drone is available at every one of them. Clear of every ring: The Fan, Museum District, Carytown, Church Hill, Scott's Addition and Manchester. Every address is checked when you book, and the pilot runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day of every flight.

|---|---|---|
| The Fan | Clear | Outside every ring we check. The pilot still runs B4UFLY and LAANC on the day. |

Checked against the rings on our drone page, measured from the center of each place. Our booking check is built around the DC-area rings; this far out, the pilot's B4UFLY and LAANC check on the day decides every flight. Your exact address is checked when you book.

Richmond questions.
Do you charge travel to Richmond?
Richmond is outside our core no-travel-fee area, so ask about travel before you book. We'll confirm the date and any travel before you pay.
Can you shoot multiple Richmond listings in one day?
Yes, and it's the best way to book here. Group your RVA listings and we'll schedule them back to back.
Can you fly a drone in Richmond?
Yes. Our booking check shows The Fan clears every ring in our airspace check, but the pilot still checks the airport's airspace with B4UFLY and LAANC before every flight. Every address is checked when you book.
Do you shoot each unit of a split rowhouse?
Yes. Each unit is its own shoot, with its own photo set.
